Main NoScript toolbar button ... Also, if you click the tiny arrow near the main NoScript toolbar button, the usual NoScript menu will be dropped down.

The "tiny arrow" part is obsolete. I'll ask Giorgio to edit that section accordingly, thanks.

That way.

Or, to go to the FAQ quoted, but not quite far enough,

Revoke temporary permissions toolbar button

See the very next sentence:

To install these buttons, just right click on any Firefox toolbar and select the Customize menu item, the drag the one(s) you want from the buttons palette onto your chosen toolbar.

In other words, when you right-click a toolbar and click "Customize", there will be the above NoScript buttons in the window or palette or whatever.
*You may have to scroll down to see them*, but they're there. Left-click on the ones you want, and drag them to the desired place on the toolbar.

Please let us know if this works, or if you need further help.

thank you for the explanation

i found the solution , here it is :

in fact i just click on Firefox menu -> Options -> Add-on Bar (Ctrl + /)
then
right click on any Firefox toolbar and select the Customize menu item, and then i drag the NoScript button from the bottom bar to the navigation toolbar

Thank you

I don't see such an option; perhaps it's Win7-specific? ... Just r-clicking the existing toolbar works for me.
But if you're happy, we're happy.

Thank you

You're very welcome, and I'll mark this as resolved.

thank you so much for that hael! that completely solved my problem as well.

i read all the solutions in the faq, but the main noscript button simply never apeared in the "customize" menu. only the "temporarily allow all on this page" and the "revoke temp allows" buttons were there. after letting firefox show the add-on bar and then opening the "customize" menu, i could drag the main noscript button from the add-on bar to the navigation bar, as described above by hael.

it does not seem to be windows 7 specific to me, i am running firefox 15.0.1 in windows xp sp3.

it might be good to add this solution to the faq, as the normal solution does not work if (for some reason) the main noscrip button does not apear in the "customize" menu.
maybe something like:
if the main noscript button does not appear in the "customize" menu itself, you can drag it from the add-on bar to the toolbar you like. you may need to activate the add-on toolbar before you can do this (view -> toolbars menu, or using the keycombination ctrl + /).

i almost gave up on it, as i could not find a solution anywhere searching the internet and noscript faq. only when i used the forums searchengine i found this solution. i bet there's more peeps with this problem..

anyway, thanks for the great add-on and hael thanks again for finding the solution and posting it here!
