Before Firefox 37, to set a custom icon for bookmarks *folder* I was using this trick in userChrome.css:

.bookmark-item[container="true"][label="Wikipedia"] { list-style-image: url('file:///C:/FirefoxPortable/Icons/wikipedia.ico') !important; -moz-image-region: rect(0px 16px 16px 0px) !important; }

However, after the upgrade to FF 37, it stopped working. How to fix it?

Thanks

Did you verify that the icon is still there by opening the icon in a Firefox tab?

Did you check in the DOM Inspector that Firefox is using the userChrome.css and finds this rule?

Does other code in the userChrome.css file still work?

Any errors in the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) about this?

Hi cor-el, thanks for your reply

Icon(s) is/are there, I checked this by copy-pasting url.

How to check whether userChrome.css is used?

Nothing unusual there that is about the userChrome.css file. I do see some errors with extensions like 'smartbookmarksbar' however that could be involved.

Did you try to disable all extensions to check for possible issues? Note that Safe Mode disables userChrome.css as well.
