Formerly, there used to be an option by which I could add some sort of "custom toolbar" and then add various kinds of buttons into it, like the downloads button, home button, history, save page, etc.

Now when I customise the toolbars (right click on main topbar>Customize), I can only add things in the given bar, which already has an address bar, a search box, and a few extensions.

Please advise on how to make custom toolbars if there's an option I may have missed - possibly misplaced to somewhere else by the update to 29.

If your navigation toolbar is too crowded, right-click an empty area of the tab bar and check "Menu Bar" or "Bookmarks Toolbar", or both. Buttons can also be placed on the tab bar. You can also drag icons you use infrequently into the the ≡ Menu Button panel.

The "Classic Theme Restorer" add-on provides an Additional Toolbar, as well as an Add-on Bar at the bottom of the window. Add-ons like "The Add-on Bar (Restored)" and "Status-4-Evar" provide only an add-on bar at the bottom of the window.

Note that you can also right-click a toolbar button and use "Move to Menu" to move this toolbar button to the drop-down list of the "3-bar" Firefox Menu button on the Navigation Toolbar.
