Hi there!

I'm using Firefox Quantum 69.0.1 (64-bit) and I cannot get rid of the additional status bar with the URL that shows up when I hoover over the link on the website (what I mean is depicted in the attachment).

I have tried creating userChrome.css file inside chrome folder in my profile to hide status-bar display, but apparently this solution does not work anymore.

Any help highly appreciated.

Did you set the toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets preference to true in about:config?

Honestly I did not have this setting before. But I have just modified it to "true" and have userChrome.css in place. Still, the status bar on the bottom is displayed.

Thank you! I modified userChrome.css with the line that Ed posted, so it looks like this:

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); '#statuspanel {display:none !important;}

with toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets set to true.

It solves the issue, so the panel is not displayed anymore.
