327482 - Buttons added to the bookmark toolbar are not migrated to Places

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect, P1)

Description

[Joey Minta]

If you have buttons added to the bookmark toolbar before using places, the migration to Places does not keep these buttons around.

Steps to reproduce:
(1) Start a non-Places build.
(2) Add the 'New Tab' button to the bookmarks toolbar
(3) Start a Places-enabled build.

Actual results:
The button you added disappears from the toolbar.

Expected results:
The toolbar would be preserved in tact.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
