RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1589023

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

  • open thunderbird
  • show status bar [in german: "Statusleiste"] (if not already active)
  • leave thunderbird open until the next day

Actual results:

  • the date is shown in the status bar
  • when the next day starts, the date is not updated
  • I have to restart thunderbird in order to update the date

Expected results:

  • the date is shown in the status bar
  • when the next day starts, the date is automatically updated

Do I have to leave Thunderbird open until the next day to have the date appear? I've never seen a date in the Status bar.

Is it added by an extension?

Hi Walt,
in a fresh installation I can see the field "Tagesplan" ("day plan" ?) on the bottom right of the thunderbird window.
Next to the description/label there is the date.
If I click on that field the window with the tasks opens.
If I deactivate the add-on "Lightning" (which was automatically installed), the field and the date is not there anymore.

Should I make a bug report for that add-on?

Hi Walt,
in a fresh installation I can see the field "Tagesplan" ("day plan" ?) on the bottom right of the thunderbird window.

That is called the Today Pane in the English version of Thunderbird.

Next to the description/label there is the date.

I see just the date of the current day which is a "9" for today.

If I click on that field the window with the tasks opens.
If I deactivate the add-on "Lightning" (which was automatically installed), the field and the date is not there anymore.

That date is supplied by the Today Pane feature of the Lightning extension.

Should I make a bug report for that add-on?
Not needed, although I can't confirm the bug.

Summary: date in status bar does not get updated → Date in Today pane toggle does not get updated with Thunderbird open several days.
Version: 68 → Lightning 68

Also, the "events panel" (today, tomorrow, next 5 days) is not updated when TB is opened during several days. To update it, the user must click on the small round icon "go to today".

Looks like this is a duplicate of bug 1589023

I think all of them are duplicates of bug 402842
