Using mac (OS 10.9.5) along with Firefox 71.0
I go to my bookmarks folder and drop down to my custom bookmarks sub-folder; I am able to sort my bookmarks within this folder from A-Z. Once I leave my bookmarks folder and go back up to the main webpage drop-down menu for bookmarks and navigate to my sub-folder, all of the bookmarks have reverted back to an unsorted list. While trying to sort A-Z, there isn't any sort of "save changes/update" button, so why can't I get the sort order to take permanently?

In this list you only see the pages you last bookmarked, so older bookmarks do not show in this list.
</p><p>If you haven't done this yet then you can add the "Bookmarks Menu" button that shows the bookmarks in a drop-down list to the Navigation Toolbar via these steps:

<p>You can also drag the Bookmarks Menu button from the Customize palette to the Navigation Toolbar

<p>Note that there are flexible space items to the left and right of the location bar that you can possibly remove via the right-click context menu or in customize mode.

<p>How do you want to search for bookmarks?
</p><p>One method is to use the address bar. Type a few letters of the bookmarked site and watch for it to come up as a match in the drop-down -- bookmarks are designated with a star icon at the left.
</p><p>Another method is to use the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b) which has its own search box.
</p>Hi Magnogreato, that is called the Library menu.

It doesn't list the contents of the Bookmark Menu itself, it shows a list of the most recently added bookmarks in reverse chronological order. It is hard coded to "Recently Bookmarked." If your question really is "why", I don't know why.
</p><p>However, the optional bookmarks menu button TyDraniu mentioned -- <img src="https://user-media-prod-cdn.itsre-sumo.mozilla.net/uploads/gallery/images/2017-10-14-13-54-51-ad9ea7.png"> -- is much more useful than the Library button in my view (I moved the Library button to the "Overflow" list).
