How to have more than one row of bookmarks in bookmarks bar

I have a mid-2013 Dell Inspiron 5537 with a 15.6-inch, 1,366 by 768-pixel display, along with a 24-inch, 1,920 by 1,080-pixel external monitor from Viewsonic I always plug the laptop into at home. The external monitor works great, especially with the resolution, but I have two problems with the bookmarks bar, the former of which is an annoyance on my laptop's display when it's not connected to the external monitor by means of an HDMI cable, and the latter of which is an idea to make the bookmarks bar more useful.

A. When I open the window to customize the taskbar above the bookmarks bar, the last of my ten bookmarks in the bookmarks bar disappears and I have to close Firefox and re-open it to have that bookmark on my display without having to click a double arrow. I want all ten of my bookmarks on my bookmarks bar to fit in the space on that window all the time. It does until I click "customize".

B. Firefox should allow me to have a second row of bookmarks in my bookmarks bar. My ten bookmarks are all descriptions of careers in the Occupational Outlook Handbook on BLS.gov. The Department of Labor plans to revise the entire list of jobs within that handbook and start reporting on them effective the beginning of 2018. The last time that happened was back in 2010. More than one row of bookmarks in the bookmarks bar will be especially useful when this happens.

Chosen solution

Hi, you can always create a folder(s) on the bookmarks bar to contain your bookmarks - Right click on the bookmarks bar > New Folder, then right click on the folder > Properties, if you want to rename it.

Or you can try an add-on like Roomy Bookmarks Toolbar.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
