Fonts keep resetting, not the usual font resetting problem.
Fonts keep resetting, not the usual font resetting problem.
This isn't the problem where if I send a blank message it reverts my font settings back to default. This is just a matter of my font constantly resetting to the default Helvetica. I want it to be Lucida Grande. But it never stays Lucida Grande for long. I've set it while in a message window, and while in my message prefs. It always resets. Is there someway I could just go into the Adium files and make Lucida Grande the default? I'm using Adium 86.

I'm having exactly the same problem, and I too am using 0.86. Can anyone help?!
Fonts keep resetting - workaround
I've found a workaround to solve this problem. Quit Adium. Open "~/Library/Application Support/Adium 2.0/Users/Default/WebKit Message Display.plist" in a text editor. Delete the lines that define the FontFamily and FontSize, e.g.:
<key>com.adiumx.mockie.style:FontFamily</key>
<string>LucidaGrande</string>
<key>com.adiumx.mockie.style:FontSize</key>
<integer>14</integer>
Save the file and exit the editor. Launch Adium. Here's the crucial part: DO NOT set your font using Adium Preferences - this will write the problematic lines back to the "WebKit Message Display.plist" file. Instead, open a message window and set your font from there. The settings should now be retained.
<key>com.adiumx.mockie.style:FontFamily</key>
<string>LucidaGrande</string>
<key>com.adiumx.mockie.style:FontSize</key>
<integer>14</integer>
