Hello community,

I have the need for a simple solution.

Question: How do I configure Thunderbird Lightning in order to use 2 or more CalDAV-calenders from different domains but hosted at the same provider?

Searching the internet gave following information:

Same challenge were raised in this link:

https://superuser.com/questions/1187637/how-to-use-2-caldav-calenders-same-provider-in-thunderbird-either-one-works

I have not tried the solution regarding making an alias in the host file as the group of end-users I am going to share the calendar with are not that skilled.

There has been two bug cases reported:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=799184 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247486

Both are according to my information unsolved.

Are there anyone who are capable for solving this challenge? 

- or a guide in how to create a bug report..


Thanks,


JB

Thanks to Toad-Hall I found a solution, that works for me - however not the one in the reply.

As the solution in the link given did not work it pointed me in another direction and here I found the solution, that works for me.

I installed TbSync and Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV.

On the support page for TbSync there is a guide in how to handle multiple accounts from the same server. It worked fine for me.

Thank you for the support.
