Rules gone #25

Closed Andy1616 closed 10 years ago

Andy1616 commented 10 years ago

Hi,

worked fine for quite a while. Did add a rule today - and now the list of rules ist empty!!! Where are they stored? Any chance to revert? What happened??

wangvisual commented 10 years ago

Don't know it's addons issue or TB issue, but if there's a prefs-1.js file exists in profile directory (c:\Users\$user\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\$sth.default), exist TB and copy prefs-1.js to prefs.js or only override the line user_pref("extensions.awsome_auto_archive.rules", ...)

I'll save the rules in the addons in the next version.

Andy1616 commented 10 years ago

Only a prefs.js was there... :-( still unclear what caused it... Could you implement a "history" of maybe the last 10 files in a round-robin or so to keep the last 10 changes for fallback reasons...?

wangvisual commented 10 years ago

Yes, I'll save history of the rules to profile directory in next release. Sorry about that.

another BIG THANKS for this... Really good thing to have backup of rules / separate rules, etc.
