Fx 57: How to remove "Bookmarks toolbar" and "other book...
Hello,
for years I've been using add-on called Simple Bookmarks menu https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... arks-menu/
As with most of the add-ons, it's not compatible with Fx 57.
What I need is pretty basic - to remove "Bookmarks folder" and "other Bookmarks" from the Bookmarks drop-down menu.
Any idea what should I add into userChrome.css file?

Right-click to top toolbar, uncheck "Bookmark Toolbar." Where are you going to store your bookmarks? sidebar?

They're not talking about removing the Bookmark Toolbar from under the URL bar. When you click on the Bookmarks menu either from the menu bar, or the bookmarks icon on the toolbar if you have it there, there are hard coded entries above the bookmarks. As far as I know you can't remove/hide those.LoveMyFoxy wrote:Right-click to top toolbar, uncheck "Bookmark Toolbar." Where are you going to store your bookmarks? sidebar?
Do, or do not. There is no try.

Sorry if I wasn't clear before. Please see pic here: https://ibb.co/nyCfxm
I want to hide/remove "bookmarks toolbar" and " other bookmarks".
This was possible with aforementioned add-on.

Re: Fx 57: How to remove "Bookmarks toolbar" and "other boo
That's what I tried to explain too. I think the only way is through CSS code. Aris may already have it in his files. I'll look around a bit. Here's his site. Maybe you can find it too. Look under the Code tab. https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSforFx/issues/1miki69 wrote:Sorry if I wasn't clear before. Please see pic here: https://ibb.co/nyCfxm

Those are just links. Why does it matter if they're there?miki69 wrote:Sorry if I wasn't clear before. Please see pic here: https://ibb.co/nyCfxm

Add this to userChrome.css to get rid of "other bookmarks"
and the "bookmarks toolbar" ..i prefered to keep that one
#menu_unsortedBookmarks { display: none !important; }
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks { display: none !important; }
#bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu { display: none !important; }
is this what you were looking for..I hope.

Re: Fx 57: How to remove "Bookmarks toolbar" and "other boo
Here's three together. This should get rid of all those menus (Bookmarks Toolbar, Other Bookmarks, and Mobile (If you have those showing)):
/* bookmarks toolbar */
#BMB_bookmarksToolbar{
display: none !important;
}
/* other bookmarks */
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks,
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks + #BMB_mobileBookmarks,
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks + #BMB_mobileBookmarks + menuseparator{
display: none !important;
}
/* bookmarks toolbar */
#BMB_bookmarksToolbar{
display: none !important;
}
/* other bookmarks */
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks,
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks + #BMB_mobileBookmarks,
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks + #BMB_mobileBookmarks + menuseparator{
display: none !important;
}

Re: Fx 57: How to remove "Bookmarks toolbar" and "other boo
That worked beautifully, thank you!
Does anyone know how to remove one (or both) of the "Show All Bookmarks" from the bookmark menu? It's there twice (at the top and bottom of the menu) which is really unnecessary.
I'd be very happy to remove "View Bookmarks Sidebar" as well if possible.

Because they don't use them and they end up taking up space they'd rather use to, I don't know... display a bookmark in the bookmarks menu?LoveMyFoxy wrote:Those are just links.

If I need "other bookmarks" at any point I can access then via "show sidebars" icon.

This hides the Show all bookmarks at the bottom of the menu and the view bookmarks sidebar at the top.
#BMB_bookmarksShowAll,
#BMB_viewBookmarksSidebar {
display: none !important;
}
Much more compact for a small screen

Re: Fx 57: How to remove "Bookmarks toolbar" and "other boo
I added a chrome folder and userChrome.css, etc. Works when I click on the Bookmarks Icon in bar, but when I click on "Bookmarks" at top left, I still see Other Bookmarks and Mobile Bookmarks. They also still appear when I'm trying to save a bookmark. I always save to the Bookmark Menu, but Other Bookmarks is the default save location necessitating a couple of mouse clicks to save to the correct location.
