In firefox, there used to be a star. This star could be clicked anytime and would add current site in bookmarks.

It's gone. Why?

PS: have noticed, that amongst other options missing, there is no attachment field on the 'New question' page.

In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden
A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar

  • There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.
    You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
  • It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the Bookmarks menu
  • If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"

Thank you for your reply cor-el, I can see now, that Classic Theme Restorer can fix what Mozilla has fucked up.

Are there any release notes that explain why this feature was removed?
