I've seen the posts about going to about:config and changing "browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground" to TRUE. But I still have the issue, how can i fix it?

What happens: I have my bookmarks column on the left. I middle mouse button a folder, then my current tab switches to those new opened ones

What I want: When i open up a folder, i want to keep my current tab viewed and have those others opened but i go to them when i want.

Note: I can middle mouse button + shift on a folder and it doesn't switch.. But i want to just middle mouse button and have it not switch

Did i mess up a different setting? Pic is current settings when it comes to browser.tabs.load

Thanks for your time.

I think those options that I screenshot deal with individual bookmarks. I think folder bookmarks behave differently?

It's not limited to folders, but opening multiple bookmarks in general (Bug 506988).

Another workaround that may be easier is to drag and drop the folder into the tab bar.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I just have to wait, was hoping it wasn't a bug lol.
