Hey everybody,

Quite a few of you have reached out on the mailing list, One Stop Support, Reddit, Slack, or directly to myself or Oliver about losing your Featured badge. I wanted to share that those badges should now be back.

This was an unintended side effect of a recent back-end change for the Chrome Web Store. Once we traced the problem, we were able to deploy a rollback, which is now live. All badges should now be reinstated and visible as expected.

If you are still seeing any discrepancies with your extension's badge, please reach out to our support team via One Stop Support so we can investigate further.

I really appreciate everyone who took the time to reach out about this, and I am truly sorry for any stress caused by our mistake.

Patrick, on behalf of the Chrome Web Store Team

Hi Patrick.

If you filter by "Featured", it doesn't show those, at least on the second page. Try searching for "Toby" and then check "Featured".

Hi Andriy!
Super sorry about that - there was a separate bug with the featured filter that was also found, it wasactually fixed already yesterday and will be live in production soon.

Sorry again!

Hey, after updating my extension the featured badge was lost, any ideas why?
