ESR update to 68.2 from 60.9
I've been happy with what seems the 60.xxx level of ESR...but now I see that the next update for this version is jumping to 68.2. So, I'm wondering if my tried and true extensions in my current version are going to blow up again as they did in the past with the new Firefox format.... anybody know the skinny on this? PS... I've attempted to locate meaningful answers to some of the basic for this version jump but could not find anything that would give me the answers.

Re: ESR update to 68.2 from 60.9
thats the forced upgrade from 60esr to 68.2.0 esr. mozilla grants 2 builds time and 68.2.0 is 3rd build now after 68.0, 68.1.
as the following table points out 60.9.0 esr is the latest 60esr, the next upgrade can only be 68.2.0
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar
thus 60esr has been phased out now and is out of support.

Re: ESR update to 68.2 from 60.9
I only use NoScript and uBlock Origin. Both have been working fine since I upgraded to 68.2.0 esr when it came out. I'm on Windows 10 Pro.
Now, if only I could get rid of the new image on top of the "Bookmark this Page" fly-out, I'd be happy. Haven't looked into doing that yet.

Re: ESR update to 68.2 from 60.9
Everything seems to work OK.. but it took me a day to figure out why my pages looked different... then I noticed that I no longer have 'tabs on bottom' ... I checked my Userchrome.css file and did a search for the word 'bottom' and found two entries. This profile is pretty old so having those two entries is just that over time I must have had to add another one due to 'another' Firefox update.
They are....
AND
Not being a coder for CSS stuff ... not sure, but that last one doesn't look like it handles putting tabs on the bottom.
So, if anybody feels like posting the now working code here I would appreciate it very much.
They are....
Code: Select all
/* Tabs on Bottom */
#TabsToolbar {
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 100!important;
Code: Select all
.tab-bottom-line {
display: none !important;

PS... I see where dickvl posted what he uses but I can't believe all that code takes the place of the simple code that I had before the update.

Re: ESR update to 68.2 from 60.9
DF, FWIW I'd keep the .css stuff to the bare minimum, every update seems to break something for someone, 71b just nuked my Hamburger Button on the far left in the tab bar code.

df,
This is the old code that dickvl reckons does not work in the latest versions...
Try it & see if it works?
If not, then use the new version he posted.

Re: ESR update to 68.2 from 60.9
Yeah... now we just have to wait and see if another update messes with this and other code... one of the things that Mozilla provided long ago was to allow these types of CSS coding entries into the browser... yet it seems that with almost every release code breaks (again) ... that is not a great sales-pitch...especially if Moz wants the world of everyday users to enjoy all of the tweaks in the browser... know what I mean?
In the case of this supposed corporate version of Firefox... I can just see a company like
G.M., or a telco giant waking up in the morning and finding that thousands of their Firefox users are in a mess.

Re: ESR update to 68.2 from 60.9
I'd be grateful if someone could point me to instructions for using the code that LIMPET235 posted with the comment: "Try it & see if it works?." I foolishly allowed Firefox to update to 68.2.0esr and my tabs got relocated again.
I'm one of those old-timers who prefers having their tabs immediately above the web pages that they refer to. But my computer skills have gotten rusty in my old age, and I haven't a clue how to use the solution that LIMPET235 provided.
What I'm hoping for is either a list of step-by-step instructions, or a youtube video.
