Add bookmark folder to toolbar in Firefox?

[katzdvd]

I am trying to add a bookmark folder to the toolbar in ff for quick access, but can't seem to figure out how to do it. I thought this add on would do it for me, but it doesn't seem to be what I need. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

You can't use the bookmark toolbar folder that comes with FF? When you go to save as a bookmark, you get the choice to save in bookmarks or save to the toolbar through the bookmark toolbar folder.

Thanks guys, that worked. I moved the desired folder into the bookmarks toolbar folder & now I have it all right at my fingertips. Makes it very handy to have that tab right there to click on instead of endless scrolling thru the bookmarks.

Even though I have everything condensed down into folders, it was still turning out to be a pain to do all that clicking!

No problem, anytime.

A nice wrinkle you can add is multi-line bookmarks toolbar without that '>>>' thing.

in your profile directory there should be a 'chrome' directory and inside some file like
userChrome-example or similar. Add these lines and save it as 'userChrome.css'

/* Multi-row bookmarks toolbar */
#bookmarks-ptf {
display:block !important;
}
#PersonalToolbar:not([collapsed]) #bookmarks-ptf > toolbarbutton {
visibility: visible !important;
}
#bookmarks-stack {
overflow: visible !important;
}
#bookmarks-stack > .bookmarks-toolbar-overflow-items {
display: none !important;
}

Not only will your toolbar wrap, but the single bookmarks will be on the top line, then the
bookmark folders. Only thing a bit funky is when you resize it doesn't reformat until you close Firefox since it only loads userChrome.css on startup.

hmmmmmmm on second thought that tweak may be the trigger of a FF scrollbar bug!!
So I guess I'd say only use it if you leave FF the same size most of the time. Guess it
depends which annoys you more. the '>>>' thing or the scrollbar bug.
