Hello, I was wondering if there is any way for firefox to not open a new window when i click a link? Instead, it would open a new tab, not a new window.

if there is any way to do this, please tell me

also, how do you make your bookmarks show while in a site?

thanks guys!

Hey there!

Go to about:preferences#general, go to Tabs and select Open links in tabs instead of new windows. That should open links to a new tab and not window.

For the bookmarks, right click on the bookmark toolbar and click on the 6th option and choose Always Show.

Hope I helped!
