Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox :: Theme, defect)

Description

[Nokizilla]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:64.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/64.0

Steps to reproduce:

This bug happen since Firefox 54, this has stopped me to upgrade to newer Firefox version. However, this bug is never happen when I use Firefox 52.

1. Add the code bellow to userChrome.css in folder Chrome under the Firefox profile:

/* Multi-Row Bookmarks Toolbar */

#PersonalToolbar {

/* Provide room for up to 4 rows at 26px */

max-height: none !important;

min-height: 46px !important;

}

#PlacesToolbarItems > box {

display: inline-block !important;

overflow-y: auto !important;

/*margin-right :30px */

}

#PersonalToolbar #PlacesToolbarItems {

/* Override hiding */

overflow-x: visible !important;

overflow-y: visible !important;

/* Add a little cushion */

padding-bottom: 1px;

}

#PersonalToolbar #PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item {

/* Reduce padding on individual bookmarks to fit rows closer together */

padding-top: 1px !important;

padding-bottom: 1px !important;

}

2. Open any bookmark link in a folder


Actual results:

The bookmark toolbar doesn't show on the 2nd row anymore and extend the book mark on the 1st row, need to click on the folder again so that the 2nd bookmark toolbar row reappear.


Expected results:

The bookmark toolbar should be unchanged after we click on the bookmark in the folder, the 2nd row should be there. 

I believe this is the Firefox core issue, not the CSS code itself as I verified this by other user in the reddit forums

We don't provide support for custom userChrome.css code. If there's a problem without userChrome.css modifications, or if you have a reduced HTML testcase that demonstrates that there's a core Gecko issue, please let us know. Thanks.

I just a normal user, google to search for solution (multiple bookmark toolbar) as I have so many bookmark that needed for work. Also, I don't need Firefox support the UserChrome.css modification code itself, all the code is fine from my experience daily on Firefox 52 for a year. I'm not a developer so I have no idea to have a reduced HTML testcase.

The things is nothing changed on my Firefox profile, even I create a new one just for testing, if it worked perfectly in the Firefox 52 and issued begin since Firefox 55, is this the changed from Firefox itself produce this weird bug because other factors have been fixed? That is just my logic thinking.

I'm really keep on to find solution to fix this bug, but my capability is limited so I can't test deeper. What I can do is trying to duplicate the bug and find how it reproduce. Can you please spend a bit of time have a look at this? Let me know what I can do to help so I can try my best. 

Thank you.

I can only suggest you to go to https://www.reddit.com/r/FirefoxCSS/ and ask other users to help you with your userChrome hacks.

Well, that what I did before posting to here, I even post the same post at Reddit Firefox which I mentioned in the report, jscher2000 is quite a "experiences supporter" (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/user/jscher2000) and he also agrees that this is the Firefox bug, I think the code has the problem, but Firefox itself when there is interacting with user under this code.
