Before updating to newer version bookmark folders were yellow as they should,but in current version they are white and there is no way to change that.This should be added to options so we could chose the color we want.

Maybe this is already doable with `userChrome.css`?

Change the color of the folders from gray to another, for example, to yellow, as it was before, or to blue, orange or turquoise.

I have many folders and I always loose time finding the correct one by reading their names, I'd love to be able to customize the folder icon for each one of them, but the changing their individual color would already be a nice improvement.

A while back an update for Firefox removed the colour from the bookmark folders. They are now a black line with white inside. Many people are looking for solutions from add-ons to computer programmer code. The folders are next to invisible. A standard yellow would be better or the options of changing the colour would be better.

Not sure why Firefox went backward in time, with lack of colour.

Can the folders inside bookmarks be colored or colorful?

As the title suggests, it would be nice to have colorful favorites folders. even just a default color. So as to stand out from the screen.

Is this suggestion for Firefox or Thunderbird? We have some similar ideas already in the community and want to make sure the conversation stays focused in the correct thread.

Option to choose the color of bookmark folders 

Thunderbird Labels colors - change background color instead of text color

COLOURED folder icons in bookmarks

I've been hoping and hoping for a long time...

I would love to have a few colours available, to differentiate certain, important, folders. Would make things a lot easier when looking for a particular group etc.

Shouldn't be all that difficult to implement that. How about it?

Cheers

Eh, IDK. I feel this idea: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/use-emojis-instead-of-the-folder-icon-in-the-bookmarks-toolbar/...

will work much better (even if you're not a fan of emoji, in which case you can just use circle emojis of different colours), as the folder icons will also be shape-distinctable and you'll be able to make them move associative with the contents.

Just an in between question. Why are there posts that one cannot give kudos to?

@Jon

There seems to be a fair amount of resentment/resistance to the idea of being able of giving specific folders individual colours.

Could you advise please.

Persons who don't want to avail themselves of this feature could always ignore it.

Thank you
