Hello, I miss the little orange rectangle in the upper left corner of my mozilla firefox screens, now that I have the new version, from which I could click and it would drop a menu down with some selections, one being "share" and I could email a link for the page I was on in firefox, to someone in my email list. I use Thunderbird, by the way. Is there still a way to email links to web pages from mozilla? If not, is there a way to get the old firefox version back? Thank you much.

Hi Sara, if you need one more way to do this, the function is available on the classic File menu. You can call that up bar by tapping the Alt key.

Hi Sarah,

Sorry to hear that feature got removed. Please see our Forum rules and Guidelines when posting. I've removed your personal information (e-mail and phone number) from your initial post.

You can actually add this back via the Customize window. Follow the steps below to get that back.

  • Click The image "new fx menu" does not exist. > Customize
  • On the left/middle section, you'll see E-mail link
  • Drag that out of the Customize window whereever you want.

You need to customize your Open Menu icon list to include the Email Link option.

Click the three dashes icon at top right, go down to the bottom and click Customize, click the Email Link envelope and drag it into the options list.

You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.

Thank you everyone! I got the function back up and found out things I had never known, in the process. What a revelation! I so appreciate you all for putting your ideas out there. Sara
