Thanks!I did find and include the address bar icon, which works well.

188BET靠谱吗I do prefer the icon found on the Zotero tool icon bar (I have to be down in the library Collection area anyway, to set the proper Collection before saving, so it's very handy to have it near there rather than back up at the top of the screen).

Any idea what happened with that icon?I noticed this line in the Error Report:

[JavaScript Error: "The Components object is deprecated.It will soon be removed." {file: "http://s.tagsrvcs.com/2/4.9.6/loaded.js" line: 4}]

188BET靠谱吗Does this refer to the disappearance of the icon bar tool for "Save to Zotero as Web Page"?

Any idea what happened with that icon?

Since its functionality was moved into the new single-purpose toolbar icon, it doesn't exist anymore.

I don't quite follow your logic, though — on many sites, you already should have been using the address bar icon, which was already up at the top.The "Create Web Page Item from Current Page" button was just for pages that couldn't be recognized.So the only time you didn'thave to use the icon at the top was when a page wasn't recognized, but the goal was always for it to show up as much as possible.

188BET靠谱吗You could argue that it'd be nice to be able to save all pages (including those with translators) from the Zotero toolbar, but that wasn't the case before.

(For what it's worth, you can now use a shortcut key on all pages, which would avoid needing to use the button at the top at all.)

188BET靠谱吗My address bar and Firefox toolbar is already overcrowded with items I use more frequently than Zotero.188BET靠谱吗To save room, I eliminated the Zotero combo icon, and went to the icon that just opens the Zotero window.188BET靠谱吗To then add the item, I now have to go back and open the Firefox hamburger menu to find the Save to Zotero button.

188BET靠谱吗How about letting the user choose whether the Save button shows up in the Zotero window with a Preference option?188BET靠谱吗There is lots of room on the Zotero toolbar, and if users find it confusing that the standalone toolbar is different they can disable the button.
