User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0
Steps to reproduce:
0 Im working on MacOS 14.6.1
1 Load a temporary theme (Add-On) as .zip
2 Make a simple change in zip
3 Reload the temporary theme by either using the refresh button or removing and loading again the updated zip
Actual results:
Updated zip is not making the changes on the design. Closing thunderbird and loading the updated zip will work.
Expected results:
Refreshing the temporary add-on should reload the source as if thunderbird was reopend.

Temporary add-ons are not zipped. You select the manifest.json file of your code directory.
Thanks for the hint. I just checked and updates from manifest.json are applied, updates from linked stylesheet aren't refreshed though. I guess this would be a feature request than...

Yes, theme_experiments may be subject to aggressive caching. If this also happens with Firefox add-ons, it is best to file a bug with the Firefox add-on component (including a reproducer add-on)
