So folk there are missing out on coming here and finding your fix for the addon. What’s odd is that that review showing your web address isn’t shown in the reviews at all if you access them thru Thunderbird’s Addons button in the toolbar of the app, then click on Get Addons (in the Addons Manager tab) and finding the Theme Font & Size Changer for ThunderBird 64.1 addon and its reviews. Glad to hear yours will be part of the addons for TB in the near future so I can stop emailing Baris Derin on a daily basis to say their addon stopped working again and the supposed fix or update they’ve posted doesn’t work either.įYI I found the link to your site on a fluke here where you posted it as a review for this addon by Baris Derin: Works great on mac and windows with none of the issues of the addon it’s fixing. Thank you for this fix it’s a godsend for my eyesight and my sanity. The opt-in interface must clearly state the name of the add-on requesting the change. Changes that prompt users via the permissions system don’t require an additional opt-in. The add-on description must clearly state what changes the add-on makes.Īll changes must be “opt-in”, meaning the user has to take non-default action to enact the change. Then the “unexpected” feature(s) must adhere to all of the following requirements: Includes features or functionality not related to the add-on’s core function(s) Makes unexpected changes to the browser or web content Potentially compromises user privacy or security (like sending data to third parties)Ĭhanges default settings like the new tab page, homepage or search engine Should an add-on include any unexpected feature that falls into one of the following categories: If that does solve your problem with this otherwise fine addon – let me know and report the addon as not meeting the addon policy: One could also change the build date to something in the distant future, but don’t exceed 10 digits, as the first line checks that as well. This is the very same source code except the if(new Date().getTime() >… line is removed. This also fixes the issue if Baris Derin decides to push a new update – this fixed version will not update back to his tree. Expect it to work around next week or so – once it is hosted at Mozilla, you can install it just like every other addon. As the first revision was indeed buggy, I’ve just submitted the 64.3 version. Theme_font_size_changer_for_thunderbird-64.3-sm+tbĪlso, it only took five days for Mozilla to “approve” this as a new addon. I’ve re-added FF compatibility and zipped the file for your convenience – just unzip and add to TB/FF (see comments if you need help) Update: Here’s a fixed version for Thunderbird and also for older Firefox versions up to 56.x, because for 57+ (“Quantum”, wank, wank) they’ve changed UI crap and finally render XUL extensions like this unusable. xpi file is right there – no need to enable file extension display in your file manager) Theme_font_size_changer_for_tb-64.1-sm+tb_fixed.zip Theme_font_size_changer_for_tb-64.1-sm+tb_ Here’s a “fixed” version of the current v64.1 (theme_font_size_changer_for_tb-64.1-sm+tb.xpi): Go get a job at Oracle and GTFO of the open source world. And the last 3 times he did, his “new” version was the very same source code with a different const build value. The addon silently fails after three months if the author does not push a new version. No warning message, no errors in the log, no nothing. If that number is smaller than the current timestamp from new Date().getTime() – bingo – it returns false. Guess what + 3*30*24*60*60 (*1000 for milliseconds) does – it adds three months (well, 90 days) of lifetime to the build date. Built/updated on Tuesday, 0 14:49:56 UTC to be precise. If((build+'').length != 10) (null, 'CompileAddon', 'An error occured') This IDIOT is using the following lines of code in bootstrap.js: Well, the commentators on do know why, even if most of the helpful posts get deleted for some reason (I don’t think Mozilla deletes them just for fun, but that’s just my point of view…). And the friggen addon failed ONCE AGAIN for no valid reason. I know when my apt says “there’s an update for thunderbird”. No, it’s not Thunderbird updating and adding weird stuff or changing some of the API. I’ve been using the font changer for quite some time, as my Thunderbird looks a bit odd with default settings. This guy called Baris Derin has quite a lot of Mozilla (FF/TB) addons out there. You know what really grinds my gears? MORONS that “maintain” a piece of software.
