My Sidebar is changing from a list of my bookmarks to a partial view of a website sometimes when I select a new link

I can't paste the image in here but I always browse with a bookmark sidebar always visible in my browser window. Recently but only rarely, when I select a new bookmark, the website will pop up in the sidebar window rather than the main window. If I hit the back button, it changes the main window. The only way to fix the issue is to go to the bookmark menu and select View Bookmarks in Sidebar.

Right-click and open the Properties for that bookmark and un-check Load this bookmark in the sidebar.

Typically that box is selected when the Bookmark the Page button or link on a website is used rather than using the Bookmark this page feature from within Firefox.
