Firefox 3 - Bookmarks Menu
In order to help set a world record, I downloaded and installed Firefox 3 today. Once it was installed, I immediately started customizing options and tweaking things. I never use the bookmarks toolbar in Firefox, so I normally just rename the folder and treat it like a normal folder on the bookmarks menu. With Firefox 3, this didn’t look like an option. Things like this drive me nuts!
Here’s the fix:
1. Locate your userChrome.css or userChrome-example.css file
(Finding the profile folder on Windows)
2. If your’s is named “userChrome-example.css” then rename it to “userChrome.css”
3. Open it in a text editor
4. Paste the code below to the bottom of the page
5. Save the file and restart Firefox
#bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu, #bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu+menuseparator {display: none !important;} |
You should no longer see the Bookmarks Toolbar in your Bookmarks menu! If you want, you can delete the “Recently Bookmarked” and “Recent Tags” folders by going to “Organize Bookmarks…” and then right-click > delete.
This got me to thinking though… Can I remove the “Subscribe To This Page…” and “Bookmark All Tabs…” menu options? The answer is no… I can’t, but that’s not to say it can’t be done. While I was searching for the answer, I found this add-on: Menu Editor. It allows you to customize every menu EXCEPT the Bookmarks menu. I posted a thread in the forum about this, so we’ll see what happens.
