* Inline options were removed in {{bug|1414406}}. Thunderbird will not support that | * Dialog (1) and Inline (2) options were removed in {{bug|1414406}}. Thunderbird will not support that feature any more, only options in tabs (3) will work in the future. We're working on a fix in {{Bug|1419145}}. Alternatively add-ons need to embed a WebExtension to display inline options [https://developer.mozilla.org/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Embedded_WebExtensions][https://developer.mozilla.org/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/options_ui]. This should be working now that {{bug|1418914}} has been fixed. | ||
