Please, please allow us to place the tabs at the bottom

[Darker]

The behaviour how it SHOULD BE and HAS BEEN in early version is: Tabs right above the site (content of the tab).

Right after the stupid decision to change this, I used about:config to fix it.
After this option has been removed, I had problems until I found out it can be done with CSS.
Now Firefox 113.0 broke my CSS. It already took me hours over hours to get it working with my theme and addons. This was years ago. I have to start from the scratch, because I don't know anymore how I did it.

I have some simple question to the dev team:
Why are you doing this? Changing standards, removing the option to revert to old standard, change things a lot of people liked and ignoring their needs for YEARS?

The way it should be is:
Title bar
Menu
Bookmarks / Adress bar   (maybe interchangeable)
Tabs
Site content
Status bar

PLEASE bring the option back within customization options!

Agreed mine just broke again last night and it's so annoying. The way I had it yesterday was

Menu Bar
Search/URL Bar (With add on buttons)
Bookmarks Bar
Tabs

All in the header and now the tabs are again under the menu bar rather then book marks bar. Get sick and tired of having to waste my time every few months trying to find a new CSS code to move the tabs back down where I want them. Hate having to hunt between lines for the tab I want!

We use to have the option to move tabs on bottom and that needs to seriously be brought back again!

+1 broken again with the V113 update 😡

[BalloonPark]

I don't understand why the devs break custom css to put tabs on the bottom with every update. I'm convinced they just hate their users.

With Firefox Ver 113.0.1 update on 13May2023.
It is suddenly ignoring my userChrome.css which enabled me to have "Tabs on Bottom" being the way I like it FF set up.
I feel this is long overdue to be included in Settings as an option under Tabs, so as to make this choice of the style you desire for FF to be for your personal use.
The choice to be "Tabs on Top" or "Tabs on Bottom".

agreed with everything said. Just updated firefox and I'm now unable to find the address bar !

[abc1234]

Previously working custom CSS for tabs on bottom again broken for v113. This is the Nth time same issue happens. I think this is deliberate breakage to harass users. Cannot happen accidentally that CSS implementing one specific feature gets broken every few months! Total waste of time having to fix this again all the time!

I, like many, many others here are wondering why you continue to ignore the repeated requests

of your users to include an option for tabs below the address/bookmarks toolbar.  This has

been going on for years...years.  What does it take?  Waterfox allows it.  Do you really think we

won't go somewhere else to get what we want?  Think again.  If you want to lose users, just

keep ignoring these requests.  Option. Tabs. Below.  Please.

[scottish2]

This might help some of you perhaps just looking to place the tabs below again but one of the members in the support forum helped me figure out the fix and it works fine. The fix is the last post in the thread by me and has all the CSS code I used to again put the tabs below

Please give us the option to have the tab bar below the bookmark toolbar. It cannot be that hard to allow this to be an option. At the moment only possible by messing around with scripts. I put off allowing Firefox to update itself because i never know when the update will stop the script from functioning. Such a simple thing that's been suggested over and over, yet still no option to have the tab bar below the bookmark bar.

[bmazak]

Me too. Tabs above content.  Where is the CSS code to put tabs back on bottom above content.  Dealbreaker for me.

[Hergest]

Yep, just ended up here having found my tabs have gone walkabouts, again!  Ridiculous that it keeps changing, like the devs are actively trying to prevent the tabs going where many people want them to be.

Why are there options to enable/disable the menu strip, show/hide the bookmarks, customise positions of buttons, but the tab group is fixed?

It's so annoying having to tweak in .css file.  Figure out the change and apply it on all of my devices.

The style ends up looking a bit wrong, as they intend the tab group to be connected to the menu strip.

Do Firefox developers read this forum?  Is there a better place to complain?

[GrizzlyAK]

I truly can't understand why this is NOT an option, after all the gnashing of teeth over many years. I'm so fed up with Firefox that I'm actually beginning to consider Edge (now THAT's bad). I put off upgrading FF as long as I can, and then... some primadonna developer decides to break it for everybody, again. Making this an option would be SO ridiculously easy that it's hard to imagine this continual breakage isn't intentional.

[Lajos]

Really unbelievable, from time to time you guys are just screwing up tabs position. Why?! Absolutely nonsense!

[kdato]

I'm also fed up with Firefox, and I have been wondering for some time whether Mozilla intentionally makes changes so that custom CSS no longer work. I haven't switched to other browsers because I do not want them.
