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

Per title. If I go to bookmarks->bookmark this tab OR clicking the star icon in the address field I always want it to pop up and ask me where to save it, without having to remember to double click the star icon, or go edit bookmarks menu to move it.

This seems like a poor design, at least for me when more than 90% of the time I don't want it to be in the last used folder. I have been adding bookmarks for decades and it has always asked me where to save them, so muscle memory forgets to go back and edit the bookmark I just saved, and then later on I have to go back and change them all because they are never in the right folder.

I understand if I double click the star in the url it will allow me to change it, but when I'm busy I don't remember to click it again, or double click it, then my bookmark is lost and I have to go searching for it and edit it and it's a hassle.

Is there an about:config setting I've missed to re-enable this basic feature to reduce all the clicking?

I've tried browser.bookmarks.editDialog.showForNewBookmarks both false and true without any change to the behavior.

I can't figure out which topic to use for this but I can't submit it without one.

When I click on the star icon in the address bar the star icon is filled in, and existing bookmarks do show with the filled-in star icon and they work. But I no longer get a dropdown where I can assign a folder, edit, tag, or delete an existing bookmark, and the pages I've tried to bookmark don't show up in Recently Bookmarked so they haven't been added. I don't know if it has something to do with the toolbar?

Nothing I can find online helps. The places.sqlite file in my profile is not read-only, and I refreshed Firefox (stupidly, before I took a screenshot of the pinned shortcuts on my New Tabs page) and that made no difference. The only extension I use is UBlock Origin. Changing profiles did not help. This is on my personal laptop and no organization controls my settings.

I stay up to date on Windows 11 and Firefox updates. I do use a VPN but it never interfered with bookmarking functionality before. (I see Firefox offers a free one now but I've got a couple of years left on my paid subscription).

I asked the community but got no replies. (I did "reply" to add more information which no longer applies, and I can't seem to delete the "reply".)

Thanks in advance for any help!

I own three laptops and they are in my Firefox account and synced. I have several bookmarks for site I frequently visit. On two laptops, based on my settings, when I tap a bookmark it opens up in its own tab. This is how I want these to function. For some reason, my third laptop does not behave in this manner. The new bookmark opens up on the tab I am currently in. It gets bumped and the new bookmark opens. This is exactly how I do not want it to perform. What is going on? Also, when I set up settings doesn't it work for all my laptops since I am signed in?

Good afternoon, After an update in recent weeks, all bookmark icons look like a globe. A few change back to the original icon after clicking on an address, but revert to the globe after restarting. Previously, I could find the address very quickly based on the icon, but now it's very difficult because I have to read and select each individual address. Kind regards, Johann Kowalski
