Thunderbird Portable

userChrome.css modification for Thunderbird Portable

Submitted by nimnod on July 31, 2007 - 10:05am

I assume it is this file:

\ThunderbirdPortable\Data\profile\chrome\userChrome.css

I have been trying to mod this simply with

/* Change Browser Fonts */
* { font-size: 14pt !important;
font-family: tahoma !important; }

and there is no effect on my TB - any thoughts??

Is this the wrong file? wrong syntax???

Is there a chromedit that will mod TB Port userChrome

help?

Which Firefox

Submitted by Miles on July 28, 2007 - 10:26pm

Was running Thunderbird on a thumb drive where Firefox is also located, but was not running. When I clicked on a link in an email in TB, it opened FF, but believe it was FF on the hard drive.

Is there a way to prevent this so that it would open FF on the thumb? (Scenario would be when on a public computer with FF and reading msgs in TB it would open the wrong program without my setup and bookmark the site.)

Presumably if FFP was always running along with TBP it would always use that running program?

Plugins

Installed TBP 2.0.0.5 on U3 thumb from TBP site, not U3 site. Copied over Profile and all is fine. Except, do not have any plugins. There are 3 plugin folders:
1) TBP/app/default data/data/plugins
2) TBP/data/plugins
3) TBP/data/profile/plugins.

Folders 1 @ 2 each have one file only, ""plugins_readme.txt" which states to "install FireFox plugins in this directory."

Believe what is meant is to install Thunderbird plugins here?

Copying over profile

Submitted by Miles on July 28, 2007 - 8:32pm

Installed TBP 2.0.0.5 on thumb without running it. Then copied contents of Profile folder from hard disk. It didn't read all of the profile setup the 1st time, had several difficulties.

So deleted all TB. Then installed and ran TB on thumb. Did not set up new accounts, simply backed out. Closed TB and again copied profile to TPB/data/profile. This time all went well, Don't know if coincidental or if first starting TB makes a difference.
