Steps to reproduce:

Uploaded my extension to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/validate


Actual results:

Validation result was "Your add-on was validated with no errors and 2 warnings.", but when I click the link for the full validation report it shows no warnings.


Expected results:

It should have showed the warnings.

There's a checkbox with the label "Hide messages not required for automated signing". If you uncheck it, the messages should appear. It's a new feature, so that also confused me for a minute.

It is perhaps available on the submission page, but I can't find it anywhere at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/validate . I occasionally use that URL to "pre-flight" my extension without using up a version number.

No, I tried with /validate. I saw the checkbox in the full results page.

Comment 4

[Emiliano Heyns]

Ah, *there*. Right, got it. Thanks, I want zero warnings as I don't want to be caught later when warnings turn might be reclassified as errors.

Let's call this WFM.
