in the menu bar at the top, there's the search bar. I have a lot of searchengines, and they show up when you press on the magnifying glass.

however since the latest update i guess. I only see the icons of my searchengines.

Is it possible to get them back vertically with text on the right of the icons. because i had them arranged in a specific order and knew exactly where the click when i performed a specific search.

now with only icons, it is more difficult because i have to hover over them to see the text which icon wich searchengine is.

so, i hope i can get them back to show up vertically :) with accompanied text.

best regards, dinny

There was a sollution with previous versions of firefox that was given to me by the-edmeister:

You can revert to the former scheme like this. Open up about:config (typed in the Location Bar) Right-click and toggle this preference to false browser.search.showOneOffButtons Then restart Firefox.

However this does not work anymore, in my about:config it already is on false... but i still have only icon's

browser.search.showOneOffButtons was a temporary pref starting in Firefox 34. The underlying code for the old Search Bar which supported that preference is gone as of Firefox 43.

This is the only replacement that I am aware of for the old Search Bar. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ has an option for Old search (experimental) in Classic Theme Restorer Options > General UI (1)

okay thanks, i give it a try.

It's because i have a lot of searchengines, and i just don't recognize them by icons only.
