*** Original post on bio 230 at 2009-08-29 14:08:00 UTC *** The application doesn't use any plugin, they are mostly useless and the tab in the addon manager can be confusing for users 'extensions' VS 'plugins'.

*** Original post on bio 230 at 2010-09-28 22:44:13 UTC *** It's possible to use plugins in this application, here's a screenshot of a proof-of-concept extension: https://wiki.instantbird.org/File:InlinePlayer.png Despite this I think disabling plugins for the time being could be a good idea as they're really not used anywhere at the moment.

*** Original post on bio 230 at 2010-09-29 08:25:13 UTC *** I'm not really sure anymore of what "disable plugins" mean here. At first I thought it meant "compile out" the support for plugins, but if we want add-ons to be able to use them, it's no longer possible. It can also mean hiding the UI related to them in the add-on manager because it is confusing. Or making sure plugin would not load in conversations (or other browsers) except if an add-on explicitly requests them.

On the behalf of Florian: Closing bugs related to the Instantbird UI as WONTFIX, as the development of the standalone chat client Instantbird has stopped. Instantbird users are encouraged to migrate to Thunderbird. The user interface of instant messaging in Thunderbird will feel familiar, as the Thunderbird IM support started as a fork of Instantbird.
