1868180 - Default browser.shopping.experience2023.ads.userEnabled to true

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox Graveyard :: Shopping, enhancement, P1)

Description

[Ania]

Steps to reproduce

1. Enroll into the treatment A branch of the https://experimenter.services.mozilla.com/nimbus/review-checker-ads/summary

Expected result

1. Ads are displayed on eligible products in RC.
2. Ads display toggle in RC settings is enabled

Actual result

1. Ads are not displayed on eligible products in RC.
2. Ads display toggle in RC settings is disabled (the toggle is greyed out).

As the state of the display toggle is governed with browser.shopping.experience2023.ads.userEnabled, we would like to either default its value to true (or make it available to Nimbus and persistent) to remedy this.

[Rares Doghi, Desktop QA]

Verified as fixed in our latest Beta 121.0b9 as well as our latest Nightly build, the browser.shopping.experience2023.ads.userEnabled pref is enabled by default which means users that are enrolled in this experiment and has browser.shopping.experience2023.ads.enabled and browser.shopping.experience2023.enabled set to true they will automatically see ads in the Review checker sidebar.
