I posted about this when the problem began with version 29, and have have posted since then, but the problem has not been corrected.

Starting with version 29, I cannot put the back and forward buttons where I want. They are stuck to the left edge of the address field. I do not want them there. I want them on the far left as the first buttons with other buttons between them and the address field.

I can put the buttons wherever I want in every other browser. I am so damn annoyed and frustrated with Mozilla because of this. They have reduced options. They have reduced they ability to customize controls. They should not have done this and they should have corrected it by now. I will have to use Safari, or Chrome, or *anything* but Firefox because it is the only browser with this limitation.

Why the hell aren't they listening? Why are they reducing choice? Why don't they care? Damn it!

hello, this is a primarily community-run support forum so it's probably not the right place to request features (we cannot implement any features & devs won't read here). please either use https://input.mozilla.org/feedback for general feedback or if you feel that it's a missing feature in the browser file a bug at bugzilla.mozilla.org.

You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to customize the appearance in Firefox 29 and later and make it look like older Firefox versions.

  • You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
  • You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)
