While using an opened tab which I want to keep in place, I find it frustrating that if I want to click on one of my bookmarks in my toolbar, it uses the tab I am currently in which, of course disappears and is overridden with my selection of a bookmark. Is there a setting for me to change how my choosing of a bookmark reacts? I want it to open in a new tab and not on the one I am working with. I have looked everywhere and I cannot find a setting for this.

All the icons in my Bookmark Toolbar have been working great with no errors for several years, through countless updates with no problem. Then, recently I noticed all the icons lost the color icons and just show as a wire globe. Clicking on them, any one of them, they all go to the same website. If I remove them, got to the website I want there, and drag the URL to the bookmark bar, things are back to normal for that icon. So I replaced each one, and the next day, when I open Firefox, all the icons are again wire globes. It seems that Firefox will not retain the URL for any of the icons.

Very strange.

Bonjour, Depuis quelques temps il m'est impossible de marquer les onglets que je désire conserver. La fonction "marquer l'onglet courant" ne fonctionne plus. Sur le même sujet, il m'est également impossible d'effacer les marque-pages que je ne souhaite pas conserver. Donc, pour résumer, impossible de marquer de nouveaux onglets et impossible d'effacer les anciens qui ont été conservés. Merci de votre aide. Hello, For some time now it has been impossible for me to mark the tabs I want to keep. The 'Mark Current Tab' function no longer works. On the same subject, it is also impossible for me to delete tabs that I do not wish to keep. So, to sum up, it is impossible to mark new tabs and impossible to erase the old ones that have been kept. Thank you for your help.

I have Firefox installed on three Windows Desktop Computers. On one, I just cannot delete Bookmarks, no matter what suggestions I try. Verify Integrity of the database produced no results. I do not, for a variety of reasons, sync bookmarks (or anything else) between the three installations. Experienced user that has spent far too long on what should be a simple issue.

bold text how do i move bookmarks along the bookmarks tab

I have just bought a new computer. Got firefox working and I have bookmarks on the bookmarks tab below the search box.

I used to be able to move bookmark tabs along it and it was my main organisational method.

OR I would drag a url down from the search bar to put it on the bookmark tab below

neither of these methods work any longer and it is a real problem.

I cannot think of a worst thing you could have done.

Help how do i move a bookmark along the bookmark tab, or move a url to the bookmark tab, or move those bookmarks which I can't see to the visible section below the search bar

I set the bookmarks toolbar to show in new tabs only. If I then press Ctrl-Shift-B in any tab I lose the functionality of having the toolbar show exclusively in new tabs. It either shows in all tabs or in none, depending on the number of times I press Ctrl-Shift-B.

I have a folder with many bookmarks in it, and when I want to open multiple links in the folder but not ALL of them, I have to keep opening the bookmarks folder after middle clicking each link 1 at a time. I can't open the entire folder - there are 100+ and say I want to open 10.

Is there a way to keep the bookmark folder open while I open each link in new tabs?

Thanks!

For the last few weeks I have been unable to save new bookmarks into the folder of my choice. Instead I can only save new bookmarks into the last folder I created. I cannot navigate to a different pre-existing folder. This problem only occurs when using Firefox on my Android cell phone, but not on my PC. However, I can still view and use all of my previous folders and bookmarks when wishing to open a new website, per usual. Thank you

Just as the summary says, Used to have an icon that I put under the "hamburger" menu on the bookmarks toolbar that opened the bookmarks menu. Can't remember how I got it there. Can someone help me get it back.

Hello, I just tried to import bookmarks to Firefox, however they're not appearing on the title bar?

I imported bookmarks to desktop Firefox 134.0.1 (aarch64) on raspberrypios - 1.0, but the title bar only shows Import Bookmarks... and the imported bookmarks are located in Library -> All Bookmarks -> Bookmarks Toolbar/Bookmarks Menu -> Mozilla Firefox -> Imported Bookmark.

windows 10 is up to date firefox is up to date (137.02 64 bit) dark theme

there is no bookmark sidebar button at the right of the address bar

I am running firefox in 5 windows with at least 7 tabs each every time i exit, reopen of update it i have more that 35 Bookmark LEFT Side Bars to close IF i have the patience to close all of them WHICH NEVER HAPPENS... (this is happening since too long, I am pissed off...)

I searched, tried a couple of "solutions" to no avail

Bookmarks have been intermittently disappearing for weeks but I could always see the blue star when I visited favorite sites that I use upon starting my day that I had bookmarked. This morning all bookmarks were missing. I tried clearing cache which had worked to restore some bookmarks that were missing. Now everything is gone and I cannot recover them. There is an error that appears when I open Firefox re: bookmarks and I followed the steps but it did not work. I really need my bookmarks to do all the things I need to do, like everyone else, including medical information websites. I hope you all can get this figured out as it has been a problem for a month for me, on a PC. I know my favorites are stored somewhere on this computer but I cannot make them populate. If someone would like to take control of my computer and fix it for me, I would happy to let you do that. I have run sfc/scannow and chkdsk/f as well as a total virus scan with Norton. I have restarted my computer several times as well as done a complete shutdown several times.

My bookmarks toolbar is showing, but it's empty. All of my bookmarks are gone.

I went to a websites and attempted to add it to my bookmarks toolbar, but Firefox failed to add it to my toolbar.

Greetings. Have Windows 11 Home . I have noticed in the last month that when I click on the star that Firefox is not saving my bookmarks. I have searched online for resolution to this problem to no avail. I am up to date on my version of Firefox . Could someone please provide the steps necessary to get this feature back. I have used Firefox as my primary browser for decades and the bookmark feature has always worked fine . Thank you in advance for your assistance .

When I'm saving a bookmark, I have a choice with one click between the last seven folders that were used to save bookmarks previously. Where can I increase that number to however many fit my screen (i.e. define another number by myself?)

I would also be happy to remove the "Bookmarks toolbar," "Bookmarks menu" and "Other bookmarks" shortcuts that stick at the top of that same menu, as I never use them and they only take space. Only "Other bookmarks" might come into use very rarely, if I have no idea how to classify a certain bookmark and I decide to temporarily put it there.

I'm on OpenSuse Leap 15.6 with KDE Plasma 5.27.11, Mozilla Firefox 128.5.1esr

I would bookmark a page by clicking on the star and ensuring it turns blue. There's a pop-up that i will check to confirm the bookmark's location. But when I click on the bookmark file with the correct labeled location, the bookmarked page doesn't appear. However, it will appear if I manually drag the bookmarked page and put it under the labeled location file. Either way, when I click on the 3 stacked bars> bookmarks >search bookmarks > type in the website name, the page will appear with a blue star. Instead of relying on manually bookmarking pages, how can i ensure the bookmarked page appears in the correct location when I simply tap the star icon?

In the first image, you can see I bookmarked a reddit page under "MCAT Stuff". In the second image, you can see the page is still bookmarked, but under the "MCAT Stuff" bookmark, the page doesn't appear.
