Hello guys,

I'm looking for a solution for Bookmark Sidebar features working withj Firefox 57:

- Auto close other folders when expanding one folder. - Hiding "Bookmarks Toolbars", "Other Bookmarks", "Mobile Bookmarks" - Removing top level "Bookmarks Menu" and using its subfolders as root folders.

I was using following addons for these purposes, but they are dead after Firefox Quantum: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/autoclose-bookmarkhistory-fold/ https://addons.mozilla.org/tr/firefox/addon/old-bookmarks-sidebar/

I've read and apply cor-el's solution give below link. It's just working for Bookmarks Menu, not for Bookmarks Sidebar. While it's still useful, I need a Bookmarks Sidebar solution. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/975746

Any information and findings regarding solution for FF Quantum would be really appreciated.

Thx for the answer. I checked all FF57 compatible extensions but none helping. I think I need some CSS code like in the link I gave in my first post. Can you help me on that?

Thanks!

Thank you for your answer!

Unfortunately I've spent two days searching for a solution on exactly same pages. From what I've read I understand that plugins cannot modify how Firefox look after FF57 update. So userChrome.css seems as the only solutions. I tried some CSS and JS workarounds but nothing worked. So I'm here now and desperately waiting any userChrome.css (or other) workarounds.

Only 1 or 2 Volunteer Support have that info and I am sure they have read your post by now. Your best bet would to be to change the name of this post to usserchrome wanted. Also possibly put in a request : https://www.reddit.com/r/FirefoxCSS/
