How do I put the tabs back to where they BELONG, below the address bar without a DUMB addon that DOESN'T WORK?

Like the question says. DO NOT tell me you worked very hard on this because you didn't. Do not tell me that people like it because they don't, and I HATE it. Do not tell me it makes more sense. IT DOESN'T. It makes PERFECT SENSE to have the TAB right Above each page. I used the about:config because some idiot didn't give us an easy toggle option now the IDIOT removed it from the about:config. You refer us to an addon that doesn't work and quite frankly you disappoint in all regards. I loved Firefox and I freaking hate chrome but if my browser has to look like this, then I will stop using you.

You can move the tabs to the lower position just above the browsing area without using an extension with code in userChrome.css as basically you only need to give the Tab bar a higher -moz-box-ordinal-group value (most toolbars have a default -moz-box-ordinal-group:1 to show them in DOM order).

Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line. 

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#TabsToolbar{-moz-box-ordinal-group:10000!important}

The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
  • Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
  • Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
  • Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
  • Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file
