How to add an add-on to the Language Tools page

This should only be done for language packs and dictionaries. The developers will usually email amo-admins or amo-editors to request this. If the email was to amo-editors, make sure to forward/cc to amo-admins.

  1. Go to the add-on management page (for example).
  2. Scroll down, locate the Admin Settings box, and click on the Edit button.
  3. In the Target Locate textbox, enter the 2 or 5-digit locale code. You can find it in the code of the add-on.
  4. If there's another add-on of the same type already listed for that locale in the Language Tools page, you should use the Additional Locale Info to differentiate them. Try asking the developer why their add-on is different. While it's okay to have dupes, they should be very rare.
