Lost Feature

Since updating to the latest version of Firefox (89.0), I seem to have lost a feature that I had with the old version: previously I could click just to the right of the search bar and find options that enabled me easily to copy or email a link for whatever I was looking at. Can that helpful feature be restored? If so, how? It's unfortunate when an update leaves us with less capability than we had with the previous version. Thanks for any help.

Hi,

As of Firefox 89, the meatball/thre-dots/page action menu was removed from the URL bar and the options were moved to either tab context menu or the page context menu. Here is how you can find alternative ways to access the various options from the old page action:

  • Bookmark Current Tab: You can click the "star" icon to save the page as bookmark. Alternatively, you can right-click on the tab and choose Bookmark Tab.
  • Save Page to Pocket: You can add the Save Page to Pocket menu to Toolbar from the Customize Tool menu.
  • Pin Tab: Right-click on the tab and choose Pin Tab.
  • Copy Link: Click on the URL bar and press (Ctrl+C) for Windows and Linux or (command+C) for Mac.
  • Email Link: You can add the Email Link button to the Toolbar from the Customize tab.
  • Take Screenshot: Right click on the empty part of a page and choose Take Screenshot. More about that: Take screenshots in Firefox.
  • Send Tab to Device: Right-click on the tab and choose Send Tab to Device.
  • Share: Right click on the tab and choose Share.

Thank you. Apologies for being dense. Your reply said "Email Link: You can add the Email Link button to the Toolbar from the Customize tab."

Where is the Customize tab? I've looked for it, but not found it. Thanks.
