How to save Fluxbox menu settings?

<< < (3/3)

cURIOUSgEORGE:
Unfortunately, no, still nothing. I did exactly as instructed, which is still a good thing (Not sure how or why there was two references too "tce=" but either way, fluxbox custom menu settings still are not being saved after rebooting, even with backup checked. Anyhow, off too bed now, I appreciate the help boss, I'll check back in the am too see if you or anybody else left a response. I'd really like to save these settings.

And as always, thanks a bunch, George. signing out...... . . .

Hi cURIOUSgEORGE
Are there other files in your home directory that get lost, or just this one? If other files exhibit the same behavior,
it's a persistence problem, otherwise, it may be a fluxbox problem. If it's fluxbox related, try checking the file
usr/local/tce.installed/fluxbox  and see if it adds a menu file to your home directory.

cURIOUSgEORGE:
Every file gets saved except /home/tc/.fluxbox/menu the menu file seems to get overwritten no matter what.

cURIOUSgEORGE:
I figured it out. I just had to rename the location that fluxbox looks for inside the file /home/tc/.fluxbox/init, under "session.menuFile:   ~/.fluxbox/menu"

So I created a file called blahblahblah inside /home/tc/.fluxbox/ and pointing "session.menuFile:" to "session.menuFile:   ~/.fluxbox/blahblahblah"
and used /home/tc/.fluxbox/blahblahblah as my menu file, which can now be configured and saves and then loads correctly on every boot, so, that did the trick. Thanks for the help though.

George.
