For some years I have a setup that makes a collapsed threads to be marked in bold when there is an unread message in it (instead of an underline). This stopped working in the latest 115 version.

I did that based on this old thread https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1265223 To make this happen I had to:

1) Change the ..\Thunderbird\Profiles\name\chrome\userChrome.css to /*

  • Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
  • /

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

/* set default namespace to XUL */

/*

  • Collapsed read thread, but the thread contains unread , set text to bold black
  • /
  treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(container, closed, hasUnread, read) {
    text-decoration: none !important;
    font-weight:  bold !important;
    color: #000000 !important;
  }

/*

  • If thread selected, revert to highlight text color
  • /
  treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(container, closed, hasUnread, read, focus, selected),
  treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(container, hasUnread, read, focus, selected) {
    color: HighlightText !important;
  }

2) settings -> General -> in the find box: Config editor: toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets = true

Sadly, this stopped working. Any idea how to make it work again?
