Reordering Tags list. Is there a Profiles file that stores user Tags info?
I'm moving to a new computer and am having trouble getting the migrated Tags into the correct numerical order, same as on the old computer. Because the numerical order corresponds to keyboard shortcuts, it would be so very helpful. I know there was an extension that allowed you to set the order, but it's listed as through version 38 or therabouts, so I'm not sure if it would work. I figure maybe I could edit a Tag preferences file if it's in some sort of obvious text format. If anyone out there knows, I would be so grateful for your insight. Thanks.

Tgas: Settings > General Scroll down to TAGS section
You can remove tags and re- enter them in order you prefer.
Tags can also be seen in details : Settings > General Scrool to bottom and click on 'Config Editor' button It opens in a new tab In top search type: Tags
It will give a list of all the current Tags. Each tag has a colour and a title The label number is the order listed. Example: mailnews.tags.$label1.color value = #ff0000 which is a red colour mailnews.tags.$label1.tag name = Important
You may also see tags like this mailnews.tags.done.color value = #00d500 which is a green colour mailnews.tags.done.tag name = Done
The first 9 will use the numbers 1 to 9 in order listed.
