In Safari 8.0.7 (Yosemite 10.10.4) when I hit "⇧ ⌘ B" my Favorites Bar appears and I can see my bookmarks as well as all folders but one thing I'm really missing are favicon right before bookmarks.

enter image description here

As you can see, Safari is able to display them under "Edit Bookmarks" (⌥ ⌘ B). Is there a way to display them in the place I highlighted green dots on the screen above?

Am I missing something? Does it require additional extension?

Thanks for any hints.

I too miss that, I actually use Chrome at the moment, and it was one of the big things I missed.

Unfortunately there is no way to recover this behaviour, Safari is a much faster browser option on OS X than Chrome or Firefox at the moment.

I choose to use Chrome still, but you might just get used to it...

  • Thank you for clarification. On the one hand I like the simplicity of the OS X interface but from the other one this look like a significant missing feature. I don't like to base on assumptions but I wonder if this will be added in El Captain or newer version of Safari or maybe 3rd party extension should be installed (while I haven't found anything that could do this)... Anyway - thanks! – Matt Komarnicki Jul 23 '15 at 4:55

If you're lucky enough to still have your bookmarks bar, this worked for me: I went to the web page I wanted to bookmark, highlighted the entire URL, then dragged it onto the bar. Voila!
