How to display text-only in the bookmarks toolbar?
Hi. Not all web sites support favicons, so when visiting such sites, bookmarking it, there is instead a "default" meaningless icon set in the bookmarks toolbar for that particular site. In previous versions of FF it was possible to set up the bookmarks toolbar displaying text only. That option seems to be removed.
I would like to be able to customize my bookmarks displaying only a text? Is there a way that can be done now in the 62 version? Or possibly in future versions? Appreciate all good suggestions.

You can use code in userChrome.css to hide the icons on the Bookmarks Toolbar. This code leaves the icon for folders. Leave out :not([container=true]) to hide the icon for folder as well (i.e. only use .bookmark-item).
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#personal-bookmarks .bookmark-item:not([container=true]) .toolbarbutton-icon {
display:none !important;
}
It is not that difficult to create userChrome.css if you have never used it.
The first step is to open the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" page and find the button to access the profile folder.
You can find this button under the "Application Basics" section as "Profile Folder -> Open Folder". If you click this button then you open the profile folder in the Windows File Explorer. You need to create a folder with the name chrome in this folder (name is all lowercase). In the chrome folder you need to create a text file with the name userChrome.css (name is case sensitive). In this userChrome.css text file you paste the text posted.
In Windows saving the file is usually the only time things get more complicated because Windows can silently add a .txt file extension and you end up with a file named userChrome.css.txt. To avoid this you need to make sure to select "All files" in the dialog to save the file in the text editor using "Save File as".
You need to close and restart Firefox when you create or modify the userChrome.css file.
