I have the latest update for Nightly (34.0a1 (2014-08-14)). It addressed one of the two problems I have from the previous update, which was the disappearing input fields. The other problem was the shrinking of the Google search field. What can I do to fix this? See screenshot here.

The way I worked around the problem was to close Nightly, open Internet Explorer, and then re-download Firefox Nightly over the version I already have (DO NOT DEINSTALL!). Apparently it reset the version back to "34.0a1 (2014-07-21)" - before the "Google Search Results Page Searchbar Too Small" issue started. Then each time I start Nightly and Windows7 asks me if I want to allow the application to make changes to my computer, I answer "No" so Nightly does not get updated.

Then, each evening after I get home from work, I Google the past 24 hours to see if the issue has been fixed yet, and I will not update Nightly again until it has.

I realize this is a cheap workaround, and I would love to be able to trust Nightly Updates again, but this common issue should have been foreseen before the build was released. - And I will give them another week or two to figure it out, and if not... bye, bye Nightly!
