Do you always think the browsing space is not large enough? You can narrow down those huge buttons to free up space: Right-click the blank area in the toolbar, select "Custom", and then select "use small button ".

 

3. Use smart bookmarks

Smart bookmarks not only store an address, but dynamically generate a website list based on the rules you set.

CTRL + Shift + B Open intelligent tag management, select the "bookmarks menu" on the left, click "Organization"-"New bookmarks" on the top, and add descriptive languages to the smart bookmarks.

For example, "10 recently added bookmarks", you need to enter some parameters in the address bar. For example, for 10 recently added bookmarks, enter: place: queryType = 1 & sort = 12 & maxResults = 10. in addition, "10 recently accessed bookmarks" are commonly used: place: queryType = 0 & sort = 8 & maxResults = 10. Mozilla also provides many other application examples, readers can refer to the English documentation for their own research: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Places_query_URIs
