How do I work the Bookmark Toolbar?

more options

I guess I'm just confused?

Wanted to use the bookmark toolbar to, y'know, highlight important bookmarks, but I have no godly idea how to.

Dragging the site via the padlock to the toolbar does not add it. (I even added a .gif to prove that; how cocky is that?) Putting the location in "Bookmarks Toolbar" also does not.

Also, I saw a video and he could add folders to it by right-clicking, but I don't see that. Is this all because something I enabled? Is this even the bookmark toolbar? Who's the Scranton Strangler?

Hi, I suspect the container that accepts dropped bookmarks is missing from the bar. Could you call up Customize and check on that? You're looking for something called "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" to occupy the bar. I'm attaching screenshot showing what that might look like.
