Length limit for toolbar?

Open palex71 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hello, This is working well, but there seems to be a maximum number of bookmark icons it can show. My toolbar is maxed out at 90 icons, irrespective of the number of rows / window resizing. If I try to add more, they do not appear on the toolbar (but do show up in the Bookmarks Toolbar menu). Also, if I add toolbar separators, icons begin to disappear. How can I remedy this issue?

Firefox 91.4 Mac OS Catalina

Thanks!

There isn't a real limit in the number of items. I don't think anyone has ever really figured out what exactly happens but based on experince and reading user reports in multiple places, it seems it's possibly some race-condition where Firefox fails to load rest of the bookmarks.

The cut-off point seems to depend on the users system some have reported being able to load 400+ bookmarks before this happens other I've heard as low as 50, in my tests I've been at around 250-300 bookmarks. It's unfortunate the number is not high enough for you but there's likely nothing that can be done with CSS to help.

It's kinda interesting to hear that separators have some effect here, perhaps that explains why there's so drastic difference between users.
