Placing tabs below the address bar

Hi everyone,
I recently had to "refresh" Firefox because Adblock Plus kept getting disabled somehow. Now I'm having a hard time getting my layout back to what I'm accustomed to. What I would like is to have the following layout:
[Menu bar] <br>
[Address bar] <br>
[Tabs] <br>
[Bookmarks toolbar]
The default is to have tabs on the very top, and with the 'Classic Theme Restorer' I can put the tabs on the very bottom, but I'm trying to get back to having them below the address bar but above the bookmarks toolbar. If you can help me get there, I'd be most grateful!

See:
*[[/questions/1049464]] Bookmarks toolbar POSITION resets to the very top after closing firefox
*[[/questions/807135]] How can I move my toolbars up and down?
Add code to the <b>userChrome.css</b> file below the default @namespace line.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#navigator-toolbox toolbar:not(#nav-bar):not(#toolbar-menubar) { -moz-box-ordinal-group:10; }
#TabsToolbar {-moz-box-ordinal-group: 100!important;}
#PersonalToolbar {-moz-box-ordinal-group: 101!important;}
</nowiki></pre>
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the <b>chrome</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
*Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in the chrome folder (file name is case sensitive)
*Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window
*Make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
*Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.<br>Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

  • I want the tabs below the address bar

    Having tabs above the address bar is supposed to be more convenient, but all it means is I have to look up past the address bar to read the name of the tab. Is there a setting to move address back on top?

    Right-click on a toolbar, click on the "Tabs on Top" entry to de-select it.

  • How can I move the tabs below the address bar in linux/FF 24?

    I prefer the tabs to be under the address bar on my Firefox. Previously I could simply click or unclick an option to do this, and it remained the same as I upgraded. However, I recently moved to Linux Mint 16, and it had Firefox 24 already installed. I synched my bookmarks, but was unable to locate the option to move the tabs. I actually have the roomy bookmarks toolbar, and the tabs previously sat below it. Ideally, I would like to get them there again.

    You can use the Classic Theme Restorer extension in Firefox 29 and later to restore some lost features including tabs on top.

  • How do I move my TABS below the address bar WITHOUT having to install an add on ?? may have to goto another browser now!

    Firefox just updated and now my TABS are above the address bar...
    I do not wish to add another add on, it should be basic functionality to do this (as in previous versions)
    The vast population of users also want this according to the forums.
    How do I do this without having to resort to a "FIX" or an add on as this would add to memory usage.. ??
    Why have you removed this functionality?

    So if I dont want to install an add you suggest installing an add on???
    PS, I dont want to install an addon!!

  • How can i set the book marks below the address bar like IE9

    Dear Sir, I am a new user for firefox, now i am using firefox 4.0 beta version. In this how can is place book marks in below the address bar like IE8 OR IE9

    In Firefox 4 you can press F10 or use "Firefox > Customize" to make the Menu Bar and other toolbars visible and remove the check-mark on "Tabs on Top" to place the tab bar in the old position.
    You only see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden (View > Toolbars > Customize or right-click a toolbar).
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.

  • Has anyone had any issue with opening a new tab and the address bar not connecting to websites in 33.1.1?

    I think ever since we moved to v33, I've been having an irritating issue that whenever I open a new tab that isn't connected to a website yet and try to enter a website address, it won't connect to ANY website. Doesn't matter if I hit Enter to try to make it go, doesn't matter if I click the right-pointing arrow button to make it go, doesn't work. I can go into a tab already connected to a website, type in a new website there and it'll create a new tab and take me to the new website, but not if I use new tab button.
    Anyone else had this issue? Any fixes?

    Sorry, that didn't help as I'm able to connect to websites, just not in a particular way.
    For instance, I am able to type in and connect to websites IF the tab is already in use with a website (i.e. if I were to type "yahoo.com" in the address bar of this tab FF would open a new tab and take me to yahoo.com) but not when it is a completely new tab.

  • Why is the option to put the tabs below the task bar not available anymore? Very very very annoying!

    I read some posts about it and can't beleive that the developper's opion should take over the user's preferences. That's def. the wrong direction. Let us decide what we think it's best.

    You can look at the Tabs On Bottom or the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some lost functionality.
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tabs-on-bottom/
    *Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
    You can also move the tabs to the lower position just above the browsing area without using an extension with code in userChrome.css as basically you only need to give the Tab bar a higher -moz-box-ordinal-group value (most toolbars have a default -moz-box-ordinal-group:1 to show them in DOM order).

  • How can I move the open tabs down the address bar, like it was in the older version?

    I love Firefox and been using it for a while, but the new version has some changes and they are kind of getting annoying.
    I just need the open tabs not on top of the address/URL bar,
    I just want them under the URL/address bar , like it was in the old version. Please guide me and walk me through how to do it.
    I tried to look for it, but couldn't find it.

    View > Toolbars and UNCHECK the 'Tab Bar on Top" option.

  • On a Mac, how do I setup Firefox to use Command+Enter to open a new tab from the address bar?

    I tried this extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/customizable-shortcuts/) , but it doesn't appear to support editing the current "Alt+Enter" to change to "Command+Enter".
    I have a decade plus of muscle memory using the key next to the space bar + enter to open a new tab. Please help!

    There is an older extension named keyconfig (last updated in 2011) which might be able to do it. I haven't used it for quite a while so I'm not sure how well it works any more.

  • My toolbar of "file, edit, etc." is way up at the top of the screen which is inconvenient and hard to see. How do I move it down below the address bar?

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>

    This occurred when I updated my firebox to edition 5.

    Press the alt key next to the spacebar. Do you see it now? If so, click View -> Toolbars" and check the Menu bar. See [[Menu bar is missing]] for more information.

  • Put tabs below the navigation and search bar.

    I need to switch the position of the tabs and the navigation and search bars. I want the tabs below the navigation bar, search bar, and the "firefox drop down menu."

  • Text labels on buttons have disappeared, and the tabs have moved ABOVE the address bar. Why?

    Last night I updated to Firefox 29.0.1. Now, I don't mind change - and I don't mind redesigns - but I HATE it when options are removed. I want text labels on my buttons (the "Home" button for example"). In the previous version of Firefox you could right-click in the grey space at the top, and select "customise". From there, you could drag and drop which things you wanted to appear in your toolbar or not - and there was a tickbox to selext if you wanted text labels to appear underneath them or not. Now as hard as I look, I can't find this option. It looks like you're now forcing people to ONLY use icons. I hate that. My brain processes the word "Home" a lot faster than it recognises a little picture of a house. You need to understand that people work in different ways - and just because the Firefox developers might not personally use the text labels, that doesn't mean that no-one does!
    What is the point in taking away the option? None at all. Please re-introduce the option. In the meantime, I will revert to the previous version of Firefox.
    Additionally, I see that the tabs have now moved on top of the address bar. Again - WHY? I like them below. Why do you feel the need to make design changes - and then not give people the option to customise things how they like?

    Yes you can install the Classic Theme Restorer extension without a problem.

  • I want the cursor to be in the address bar when creating a new window; it works for new tabs and in a new private window, but not in safe mode.

    I have tried following the advice offered in the few different threads I have found on this but nothing fixes it. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window and/or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I fixed the issue for new tabs via about:config but this doesn't work for new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In new private windows the cursor is in the address bar.

    The search box in about:home steals the cursor. Changing your home page to something else will cause the cursor to start in the address bar for new windows.
