How to change the order of my Bookmarks in Firefox

I recently added half-a-dozen new items to my list of Bookmarks in Firefox. As usual, they were added at the bottom of the existing list. That is where I want them. However, suddenly I noticed today that these half-a-dozen recently added Bookmarks now appear at the top of the list AS WELL as at the bottom. When I attempt to delete the ones at the top, the ones at the bottom disappear too. I tried deleting them and then reloading them as new Bookmarks, but they automatically get added at the top now instead of at the bottom. Can anyone tell me what is going on here ? I want to be able to add new Bookmarks at the BOTTOM of the list and not at the top. Please keep it simple, since I am a bit of a " newbie " at all of this ! Many thanks.

Hi

I recommend that you have a read of this article that will help with managing bookmarks in Firefox

I hope that this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

Sorry but this is too complicated ! I read the article but can't understand it. What happens is this : Each time I go to a website and I want to make a " Bookmark " of a certain page, that Bookmark is suddenly getting added TWICE in my Bookmarks folder - both at the top of the list and also at the bottom. It never happened before today. I just want that when I click on the button to" Add Bookmark " it gets added at the bottom of the list just like it used to do. I tried to delete the ones at the top of the list, but when I did so, the ones at the bottom were deleted as well. The article you sent me does not address this issue. Sorry. And it never happened before today !!
