I would like to remove the spacing between bookmarks in the bookmark toolbar. Can someone direct me to the right location?

I just use the favicon icons for my bookmarks but now they are too far spread out. How to I remove the margin or padding between them? They were nice and tight until I did an update...

Try this:

Enter in the properties of the bookmark, and type some text in the name, press OK, enter again in the properties and erase the text and, press OK.

That didn't exactly help. Opened the properties, typed in text, pressed ok, then went back in and erased the texts and the padding and spacing between icons is still there...

You can experiment with code in userChrome.css to adjust the margins and hide the text if you are currently donig this differently.

Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#personal-bookmarks .bookmark-item > .toolbarbutton-text {display:none!important}
#personal-bookmarks .bookmark-item > .toolbarbutton-icon {margin:0px!important;padding:0px!important}

The plain text customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
