Bookmarks in toolbar folders not refreshing

Hi, 

Using Macos on an M1 MacBook Pro. When adding bookmarks to folders on version 110 to the bookmarks toolbar the contents of the folders on the toolbar do not update after adding a bookmark.

To clarify, a bookmark can be seen when I click manage bookmarks and look at the same folder (so it is there), it can also be seen if I add a bookmark directly to the bookmarks toolbar root, but not if it's in a folder in the toolbar.

Even a restart of Firefox fails to show the bookmark.

I do have bookmarks in folders on the toolbar but it seems to have stopped showing any new ones.

Any idea why?

Resolved - issue was caused by duplicate folders in the bookmarks menu and toolbar.

Bookmarks were being added to the same folder name in the bookmarks menu but it appeared as it they were being added to the one on the toolbar.
