User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 Build ID: 20180516032328 Steps to reproduce: I have a 'most visited' smart bookmark folder created using the simple procedure at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1192603 (except that I added 30 of them to the list instead of 10) I also have browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInTabs set to true Actual results: When I click one of those links in the smart bookmark folder, it opens the URL in the current tab Expected results: The link should have been opened in a new tab
As a workaround, I'm currently using https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-from-location-bar/ The main reason for using that extension used to be https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1394304 but that was since resolved; this particular bug prevents me from removing that extension.
