487151 - Search Tools category missing a recommended add-ons link/page

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, defect, P3)

Description

[Rey Bango]

Every category on AMO has a "See All Recommended Add-ons" link on the right-hand side of the category page & a corresponding list of recommended add-ons in that category. e.g.: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:1/cat:72

These add-ons are defined via the Feature Manager in the AMO Editors tool page. The one exception seems to be the "Search Tools" category which doesn't have that link. That means that the following add-ons will not be listed as category recommended.

CoolPreviews
Google Assistant - Surf Canyon
GoogleEnhancer
Googlepedia
GooglePreview
Inquisitor
Interclue
Peers - Instant Search
ThumbStrips 

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:4

Search Tools are considered as part of the AMO recommended add-on rotation so it's important that the same capability is available for this category. 

The other category that doesn't have this feature is "Themes" and while we don't currently consider themes for recommended status in the monthly rotation, that could change and pose the same concerns as we have with Search Tools.

Can this be bumped to a P1 or P2 since it effects how recommended search add-ons are displayed?

FTR, when you mark a bug INVALID, it'd be nice to have the accompanying reason, so that it's documented somewhere.

It's invalid because the issue no longer exists due to the category pages redesign.
