I've got the bookmark toolbar with buttons for all my bookmark links. However, when I click on one, it opens the page in a new tab. I would like those bookmark buttons to open in the current tab.

Do you have any "Tab" related extensions installed?

If so, look at the preferences in that extension for "bookmarks" or "bookmarks toolbar" prefs.

Right-click on the bookmark button. Depending on any add-ins you have, the context menu may offer you a range of options e.g. Open (in existing tab), Open in New Tab, Open in New window, etc

Try the Tab Mix Plus add-in.
