KB content update

Please summarize the request, emphasizing any user-facing changes. Include historical context or background information if it helps users understand the new features or changes. [REQUIRED]

A summary of the changes requested is part of the following google doc sections:

##Are the user-facing changes mentioned above for the production release, or is the feature/change experimental/ beta? (Production, Experimental or Beta) [REQUIRED]
**Note: Specify if the user-facing changes mentioned above are final, experimental, or in beta. This information is crucial for determining the appropriate support and documentation level needed. Please note that SUMO KB articles only support the production version for Firefox.

Production:

  • Install dialog anchored to the extensions button: Firefox versions >= 107 (Bug 1784292 + Bug 1788994)
  • Private browsing checkbox moved into install dialog: Firefox versions >= 129 (Bug 1842832)

Are the new features or changes region-specific? Are they going to be released in a gradual rollout? [REQUIRED]

**Note: Please confirm if these features or changes are limited to specific geographic regions and if they will be implemented gradually. Knowing this helps us tailor our documentation and support resources appropriately.

No

Please indicate if this is an on- or off-train release [REQUIRED]

**Note: If applicable, add the product version number to the end of the Summary field using the format: Summary [Product V123]. If this is an off-train release, please use the format: Summary [Product off-train].

On-train (but for Product on-train changes that already got to release as mentioned in the previous section)

I'm marking the isssue summary as [Desktop V129], as the most recent of the two changes has been shipped as part of the Desktop V129 release train.

(But technically the screenshot was already outdated because of changes to where the install dialog is anchored, V107, and changes to the general Firefox Desktop UI, earlier than 107).

What is the anticipated release date? [REQUIRED]

Note: Content is typically published at, or within, 48 hours of the release.

Already released.

Does the content need to be published prior to the release date? If so, when? [REQUIRED]

Note: If you don’t let us know if this date changes, it will be published on this date

No (these changes have already shipped to release)

Does the content need to be localized in any languages outside of EN-US? If yes, please indicate which languages. [REQUIRED]

Note: A minimum of 10 days is required for translation requests.

Yes, these two pages are localized (and the screenshots seems to be also localized)

Please include any related JIRA/Github/Bugzilla tickets, documentation, demos or practical use cases. [REQUIRED]

Additional details (e.g. bugzilla tickets, screenshots examples etc.) are included in the google doc sections linked above (and we can add more details to the google doc based on what other details may be needed).

Please include links to any design assets, visuals, figma files, etc. [REQUIRED]

Note: Ensure to submit only final visual assets relevant to the Production release, excluding Nightly or Beta images, and favor 'Light mode' UI screenshots over 'Dark mode'

Please add instructions for testing that will enable us to replicate the expected product behavior. [REQUIRED]

Does the content need approval before publishing? If yes, identify the one approver responsible for this task.

Note: Minor changes such as string updates are directly handled in SUMO, and will not lead to the generation of a pre-publishing draft. [REQUIRED]

Thanks for sending in the request, Luca! We’ll handle it as an off-train request and get to it right after we finish up the V131 drafts. If you have a specific date in mind for when it needs to go live, just let me know, and we’ll prioritize it.

Thanks Lucas, working on this requests after the V131 drafts are completed will work for us too, this update isn't tied to any specific timing (but given that we noticed that those screenshots needed to be updated we wanted to be sure to capture the needed changes in a bugzilla request sooner rather than later).

Hi Lucas, what's the status on this?
