Add Multiple Rows In Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar

Overtime, the Firefox bookmarks toolbar gets cluttered as you add more links, folders and bookmarklets in the toolbar. As the space in the toolbar narrows down, you have to use nested folders in the bookmarks toolbar, which is not really convenient for quick browsing.

MultiRow Bookmarks adds multiple rows in Firefox Bookmarks toolbar so that you have a lot of space to organize bookmarks and links. You can add as many rows as you want. Wow!

Once the add-on is installed, restart Firefox and go to “Tools > Options > Multirow Bookmarks“. Select the number of rows you want to show in the bookmarks toolbar.

Next, click “View > Toolbars > Customize” to add a new bookmarks toolbar in Firefox. Once the new toolbar is added, you can simply drag and drop folders on to it.

I know multiple rows takes up a lot of space on the screen but you can use another Firefox add-on to autohide the bookmarks toolbar in Firefox. The toolbar is revealed only when you hover over the area where the bookmarks toolbar is placed.

Here is a quick video which shows how you can use both the add-ons to add extra rows and hide the toolbars when you are not using them:
