Went back to FF 28 because customization is crippled in FF 29. Are there workarounds that let me customize FF29 so that it looks the way I had it with FF28?
In FF28 everything I needed was on my menubar. However, FF29 forces a new toolbar on users - the one below the tabs - and does not let me move all of the things I need off of this new toolbar onto the menubar: the field used to show/edit URLs is locked to that new toolbar so I can't put move it onto the menubar and then hide the new toolbar.
Similary, although it is easy to hide the menubar, it is not practical to do so because I do not have the option of first moving everything off of the menubar onto the new toolbar. Either way FF29 means I get stuck with two things (menubar plus new toolbar) while in FF28 I got by with just one (the menubar), thus saving valuable screen space.
I wanted to attached an image that shows what my menubar looks like in FF28, but this form doesn't provide a way for me to do so.

Thank you so much - I did not expect a theme to be able to do all of this for me. Once this theme let me move the URLbar from the navigation toolbar onto the menubar, getting the rest of the way to how I'd had things set up for the past few years was easy.
Thanks again - and many thanks to this theme's creator. Someone should remind me to make a donation to him next month - I should have my next dose of cash by then.
Glad to help. I had heard about Classic Theme Restorer (Customize Australis) , and very surprised when I saw all it can do.
