Firefox used to allow the history arrows to be customizable. I like them on the far left, but now they're attached to the search bar. How can I change this? Or is this yet another "improvement" that takes away how users want their browser to work.

Yes, Firefox is still more customizable than other browsers, but that seems to be slowly changing. Every new release take away more functionality.

I'm not sure to what history items you referring to.

Is this about the back and forward button in the location bar?

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.

You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.

  • 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)

If you look at the image, below the "File Edit View..." menu, there are arrows which page back and ahead (if already paged back). These arrows are now permanently attached to the address block (URL). I want them back where they were but can't find a way to do that.
