https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/thunderbird/addon/1344 should be the right page; how did you find the /firefox/ one?  iirc, we have problems with Google/bots crawling and finding the /firefox/ URLs, which we shouldn't link to from any Thunderbird-application page.

I simply went to https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/ and clicked the "Themes" link on the left of the page. Phoenity Thunderbird was one of the 3 or 4 themes suggested on the page. I didn't ask Google to bring me there.

Sounds to me like it was accidentally put into the recommended list, then; Basil?  (It's out of rotation at the moment, however.)

I never added that as a recommended theme, so we need someone to just verify that the landing page for themes (https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/browse/type:2) is indeed honoring the application compatibility and not displaying Thunderbird compat themes in the 5 slots on that page.

If we confirm that this is not happening, then I'm going to mark this as a dup of 431707

Sounds like this is indeed bug 431707; Fred, do you think so too?

Comment 7

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

Yes the fact that it has a "firefox" details page is bug 431707.

However, it showing up on the Tb themes landing page is a different bug. Apparently we don't honor app compatibility there. (I also don't think it was one of the top two add-ons showed there, as they are taken from the recommended list; the bottom two are random, public add-ons in the category you're currently looking at).

I think we should probably fix this for the next release, no?

Comment 9

[Fred Wenzel [:wenzel]]

All right: I confirmed that our page does indeed correctly honor category assignments. However, the add-ons in question were incorrectly tagged with Firefox-only categories, making them show up on the Firefox page. I corrected all three Phoenity, Winmail and Winmail Blue.
