Hi everyone. I've made an add-on for spellchecking in Asturian language, based on Hunspell (https://addons.mozilla.org/es/firefox/addon/correutor_asturianu/?src=ss), but when I install the xpi, I can't enable it in the right button-menu. Is it possible that the reason of that is because it is not "labeled" as an official dictionary (https://addons.mozilla.org/es/firefox/language-tools/)? In case that this is the reason, how or/and where must I request that? Thanks in advance! Regards!

Chosen solution

There is an error in the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer).

That is caused by the <em:bootstrap>true</em:bootstrap> in the install.rdf file. You do not have an extension that uses this method, so adding this line will prevent Firefox from initializing the extension properly. Removing this line makes the extension work and show up in the Languages menu.

Thanks a lot for your message. It works perfectly. Yet, how can I attach a link to the extension in the dictionaries page (https://addons.mozilla.org/es/firefox/language-tools/)? Thanks in advance!

You're welcome.

You would have to ask that at the Add-ons forum.
