Want to show running extension in tool bar

Just looking to show an extension in the tool bar. I can add the "addons" menu button, and adblocker shows up there, but I have better ttv and a few others I would like to put on there to turn on and off easily. Can't seem to find out how; a little new to Firefox.

Hi dr_Toe, add-ons have some options regarding their buttons:

  • "Page Action" button that appears (optionally) at the right end of the address bar next to the ••• icon. If you think the extension might have created this kind of button, click ••• to show the Page Actions menu and see whether you can find it there. To show an icon for an item on this menu in the bar, right-click it and choose "Add to Address Bar".
  • Button in web content. For example, a video downloader might add a button next to the title of a video, in the page where it would be useful.
  • Right-click context menu. Some extensions integrate with a context menu instead of having a button.

If you can't find it anywhere, check the extension's page on the Add-ons site to see whether there is more information there. I actually don't see one for BetterTTV on the Add-ons site, but I see one here:

Any luck?

No luck, been looking around and maybe i'm reading you wrong or it's just been a long day. I'll search the nightdev forums too and see if there is a solution there.
