I've been using Vimperator in Firefox for a long time. I'd like to hide or remove the address bar to get a bigger main window. However, after update to v29.0, the address bar cannot be hidden or removed. How can I do that? Or which add-in can help?

Here is the screenshot of my older version (before v29.0); you can see the address bar has been hidden:

The question is not asking for users to have their address bar removed, it's asking how to turn off the address bar in one's own Firefox instance with the Vimperator extension. Previous versions of Firefox with Vimperator saved much space by putting all this information in a combined status-bar / command-line, and the address bar becomes unnecessary once you are navigating entirely with the keyboard. It just takes up space.Transformer
@DavidThomas, if you are using vimperator, you will NOT suggest me "Don't do this". Vimperator will help you do anything (almost) by commands. Tool-bar, Address-bar, Navigation-bar are all "nothing matters"Paramagnet

What you want is :set gui=nonavigation. See http://code.google.com/p/vimperator-labs/issues/detail?id=943

Hi, thanks for your answer. I've tried :set gui=nonavigation but nothing happens... I've tried using a addin Hide Navigation Bar, but this addin needs be triggered, and "address bar (navigation bar)" shows again if the mouse move to tab, it's truly annoy....Paramagnet
Cool!!! I found that, after remove the Hide Navigation Bar, the setting of vimperatorrc works!!! Thanks!!Paramagnet
but when i restarted the browser, it is visible again, how to fix this?Lanfri
@Sekar put the command in your .vimperatorrc file like Marslo mentioned.Napoleon
.vimperatorrc file location in ubuntu?Laminar
Just save it as ~/.vimperatorrc. Create it if it doesn't exist. Alternatively, you can use :mkvimperatorrc from within vimperator, which will create the file and save all current settings (including :set gui=nonavigation if you have called it).Whodunit
