User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:94.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/94.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Select from the menu: View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar > Only show on new tab

  2. Open a new tab.

Actual results:

Nothing: new tab is opened, but the bookmarks toolbar is not shown.

Expected results:

The bookmarks toolbar should be shown.

By the way, when doing View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar > Always Show, I can see the toolbar.

Hi,

I wasn't able to reproduce the issue on Firefox 94 or Firefox 96.0a1

Could you create a new profile and check if it also occurs there? (you will not lose your current profile)
Here is a link that can help you with that:

Thanks!

Hi,

with a new profile I get the expected behavior.
However, when switching back to the default profile, I still do not see the bookmarks toolbar.

Thank you.

Does your normal/usual profile have the new tab page set to "blank page" in Firefox's settings?

Yes, indeed.

This is a known limitation of that functionality at this time.
