Hi,

according to this support page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/changing-calendar-preferences#thunderbird:linux:tb52

the network location of a Lightning Calendar should be editable.

For me this field is greyed out.

Using TB 52.5.0 on Linux and Lightning 5.4 from 26/11/2017.

Thanks!

Chosen solution

Seems it may be stored in prefs.js:

user_pref("calendar.registry.7ac7dc61-62ce-46a9-874f-0c859f18249a.uri", "https://apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2/xxxx@gmail.com/events");

I'm using CalDAV, not the Provider add-on, but this looks like the calendar's URL.

I noticed some dark voodoo to do with Lightning & Google Calendar. I think it's safer just to delete and reinstall a calendar than fiddle with a live instance.

Yes, it seems to me it is read-only. You can only (formally) change it in initial setting up the calendar.

I don't know for sure if its path appears anywhere else, such as in prefs.js or about:config.
