I use both add to search and organize search, FF34 has no search box, how do I add one?

Question

I tend to use Site Search, if available, instead of bookmarks, I use "add to searchbar" to make the proper xml file, and then I use organize search to group by category.. (373 user search xml files currently) as soon as FireFox upgraded to 34, I see a blank space on the toolbar instead of the searchbox.. I need the searchbox to get at all my saved search providers. BTW, "Search Using" works normal, providing my expected menu of organized providers. Same problem/symptoms, both Windows 7 systems I use.

If you want to restore the previously used standalone window to manage search engines then you can toggle this pref to false with a middle-click on the about:config page.
about:config page: browser.search.showOneOffButtons = false
You need to close and restart Firefox to make this work properly.
In the address bar, type '''about:preferences#search<enter>'''
If you miss being able to switch search engines without going
crazy with menus, try this out;
'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-search/ Context Search]''' {web link}
Expands the context menu's 'Search for' item into a list of
installed search engines, allowing you to choose the engine
you want to use for each search.
