After updating to Firefox 65 the tabs went back to the top. I want tabs below the bookmarks. I have tried placing several new userChrome.css files in both the chrome folder located in Profiles and also a chrome folder located in my default profile. Neither seems to do the job.

What am I missing?

The last userChrome.css file is as follows: @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

/* TABS: on bottom */

  1. navigator-toolbox toolbar:not(#nav-bar):not(#toolbar-menubar) {-moz-box-ordinal-group:10}
  2. TabsToolbar {-moz-box-ordinal-group:1000!important}
  1. TabsToolbar { 
position: absolute !important;
bottom: 0 !important;
width: 100vw !important;

}

  1. tabbrowser-tabs { 
 width: 100vw !important;

}

  1. main-window:not([chromehidden*="toolbar"]) #navigator-toolbox {padding-bottom: var(--tab-min-height) !important;}

/* TABS: height */

root { 
--tab-toolbar-navbar-overlap: 0px !important;
--tab-min-height: 27px !important; /* adjust to suit your needs */

}

root #tabbrowser-tabs { 
--tab-min-height: 27px !important; /* needs to be the same as above under :root */
--tab-min-width: 80px !important;

}

  1. TabsToolbar { 
height: var(--tab-min-height) !important;
margin-bottom: 1px !important;
box-shadow: ThreeDShadow 0 -1px inset, -moz-dialog 0 1px !important;

}

  1. tabbrowser-tabs,
  2. tabbrowser-tabs > .tabbrowser-arrowscrollbox,

.tabbrowser-tabs[positionpinnedtabs] > .tabbrowser-tab[pinned] { 

 min-height: var(--tab-min-height) !important;
 max-height: var(--tab-min-height) !important;

}

/* drag space */ .titlebar-spacer[type="pre-tabs"], .titlebar-spacer[type="post-tabs"] { 

 width: 40px;

}

/* Override vertical shifts when moving a tab */

  1. navigator-toolbox[movingtab] > #titlebar > #TabsToolbar { 
 padding-bottom: unset !important;

}

  1. navigator-toolbox[movingtab] #tabbrowser-tabs { 
 padding-bottom: unset !important;
 margin-bottom: unset !important;

}

  1. navigator-toolbox[movingtab] > #nav-bar { 
 margin-top: unset !important;

}

If this is supposed to work, could someone please place the code in a single reply as text that I can copy and paste in my Chrome.css file? I'm not all that familiar with CSS, and I find the way this is displayed here confusing.

See this thread for updated userChrome.css code for Firefox 65 to move the tabs to the bottom position.
