Hi everyone,

I use my bookmark sidebar a lot. I was wondering if there was a setting that would allow me to not have it scroll all the way to the top when I hide and show again.

So basically I am in a sub folder near the bottom of my bookmarks. I periodically hide the side bar using ctrl-b and when I show it again it auto scrolls me to the top. I don't believe this is how it use to work but I could be wrong. I recall it always staying in my open sub folder and in the same location.

Try using this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bm-sidebar-scroll-retainer/

Works for me for as long as Firefox is open.

Thank you! Works perfect. This functionality should exist within firefox imo.
