Classic theme stopped working :(

Why did a minor update break a theme? Now the program looks horrible
Specifically, it's ClassicTB2 for Epyrus.

I have no idea. It's probably just because I bumped the middle version number of the mail client... I vaguely remember this happening the last time I went from 2.0.x to 2.1.x. Possibly the version in there just needs to be bumped? If I'd remembered that would happen I might have just gone for 2.1.4.

But in all honesty, I don't maintain the ClassicTB2 theme myself.

Either this isn't the fix or I don't know how to do the hack properly. For background, I've gotten it to work on like only one extension ever, so...

Check for updates in the Add-on manager of Epyrus! I've just released a theme update for it.
It should update to a compatible version, and then you need to re-enable it and issue a restart.

I must be especially stupid today but can you tell me how to do that? I don't see any check for updates button.
The theme is disabled and I can't do anything with it.
What am I supposed to do here?

edit: Nevermind, I simply removed it and went to the addons website and downloaded the .xpi again.
edit2: The theme works. Yay!

For future reference.

Add-ons manager -> gear -> check for updates.

Thanks for the quick turnaround

Oh. Well that explains how I missed it with my ADHD. Tiny icon when your focus is stolen by the big fat coloured menu on the left, heh.

In Epyrus 2.2.0, legacy themes no longer work (at least the ones I have installed). Updating install.rdf like this makes them compatible again.

Code: Select all

<em:targetApplication>
		 <!-- Epyrus -->
            <Description>
                <em:id>{29877c1d-27df-4421-9a79-382c31470151}</em:id>
                <em:minVersion>2.0.0a1</em:minVersion>
                <em:maxVersion>2.2.*</em:maxVersion>
            </Description>
        </em:targetApplication>
    </Description>
</RDF>

I recommend you don't set maxversion to 2.* but keep it more conservative (e.g. 2.2.*)

That’s true, I fixed it in my post.
