Hi everyone,
I’m trying to submit my first extension, but when I go to submit is tells me “this field is required” by name, summary and add-on URL. Problem is, there’s no field to type it in, no matter which device or browser I use. I have the feeling I’ve done something silly - but what?

Are they included in the addon data ie manifest;json etc?

Thanks for the quick reply, for full disclosure I’m not a developer myself.
Are you referring to the xpi file?

Yes. I am not sure about the error but it is worth checking the details.

Hmm, it doesn’t seem to be that.
Our developer can upload the file and has the text boxes available so I’ll just ask him to submit it.
I’d still be happy to help if anyone would like to identify the source of the error though.

Maybe @jorgev can answer it. Frankly, I am not involved on the server side and not familiar with how it works.

It looks a lot like this report and other similar ones:
https://github.com/mozilla/addons-server/issues/4654
It’s caused by localization issues. You might want to try changing the en-GB
with en-US
in the page URL and see if that helps.

That did it, thanks Jorge!
