The "Site Identity button" has gone completely missing from my URL bar. I don't know when or how it happened but I heaven and earth for the answer but nothing.
My URL starts directly without any button on it's left.

Hi chiragsangoi,
i agree with KadirTopal, except if you make any changes in UserChrome.css

That is weird, there is no normal way to customize the appearance of Firefox to make that icon go away. Are you maybe using a special theme, or extension that causes that? You can disable themes and extensions to find out: Disable or remove Add-ons

I agree that it may have been caused due to some extension or theme or UserChrome.css changes. But I am trying to find a way to bring it back. Any ideas as to which line in the css file or entry in about:config would help me in that?
When I created a new profile of FireFox, the button shows properly.
Do you have content in userChrome.css about that may cause this?
Did you try to rename or move userChrome.css temporarily as a test?
Can you list the current content of the userChrome.css file if you use it?
A possible cause is code that replaces the default favicon to a map icon (#page-proxy-favicon:not(src){}).
That code doesn't work anymore because there is now only the Site Identity Button, so if you have that ID then remove just that part.
finally!
yes the userchrome.css had a line which I must've added in my yester years -_-
the following line hid the button:
#identity-box { display: none !important; }
removed it and wallah!
thanks all for helping.
