Tabs suddenly moved above URL bar - how can I move them back?
When the add-ons broke, my tabs also moved from where I had them. Add-ons are back, but tabs are still moved. How can I get them back between the bookmarks toolbar and the url bar?
Also - how can I find a post I was watching? Settings gives me a watch list to check or uncheck, but doesn't link to the posts.

By default the Browser by install doesn't move the url or tabs around that probably was something from a "userChrome.css" installed feature that was used and reset to default after a update.

But at the point that it changed, I hadn't updated anything. I had the browser open and it was normal, I went to look at something I was working on in Wordpad (browser still open), and when I looked back at FF the tabs had suddenly moved & changed from light to dark, and the extensions were broken. I was able to change back to the light colored tabs easily, and they've fixed the extension issue, but how can I fix the location of the tabs?
btw, I have a userChrome.css file to make the tab borders rounded and that didn't change, they're still rounded.
Hi cfcentaurea, I don't know of a connection between the add-on verification certificate expiring and some rules in userChrome.css not working.
In general, Firefox 65 changed the structure of the toolbar area, so you need new "tabs on bottom" rules for Firefox 65 and later. If your Firefox updated from a pre-65 version, you might need to update those. Otherwise, it's puzzling.

Hi jscher2000,
I don't want to have the tabs on the bottom, I want to put them between the bookmarks bar and the URL bar - which is where I had them before. Where can I find css for that?
PS - I was using 66.0.3 when this happened, updated to 66.0.4 this morning to get the extensions back.
I don't know what your original CSS looks like, I've never heard of that order before. Can you share it on a site like the following (remove anything personal):
Then post a link to your "paste" back here.
I don't think that it is possible or at least easy to position the tab bar between toolbars. You would have to move the tab bar out of the title bar container that currently includes the menu bar and the tab bar (you need to position the tab bar absolutely and reserve space for it).

I don't have it. If I did I would just use it to replace/edit the current version.

Well I guess I'll just have to adjust to it as it is now. Figuring out the css to do what you say would be beyond my abilities. Thanks to everybody for your replies.
