This table explains the different add-on and file status combinations during the life cycle of a listed add-on: | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||
|- | |||
! Case !! Add-on status !! File status (latest listed) !! Notes | |||
|- | |||
| New listed add-on, incomplete submission || Incomplete (0) || Awaiting Review (3) || | |||
|- | |||
| New listed add-on, submitted for review || Awaiting Review (3) || Awaiting Review (3) || | |||
|- | |||
| Rejected after review (no previous approvals) || Incomplete (0) || Disabled by Mozilla (5), all files || Also when admins want to take down an add-on and let the developer submit a fix. | |||
|- | |||
| Approved and listed || Approved (4) || Approved (4) || | |||
|- | |||
| Approved, updated submitted || Approved (4) || Awaiting Review (3) || Previously-approved version appears on listing page. | |||
|- | |||
| Disabled by an admin || Disabled by Mozilla (5) || Any || Add-ons in this state can't be accessed by their developer. | |||

|} | |||
Unlisted versions are submitted and auto-Approved (4) without affecting the add-on status. So, add-ons that are exclusively unlisted have an add-on status of Incomplete (0) and Approved (4) files. | |||
An add-on version can have multiple files, and it used to be possible for them to have a different review status. That's the reason the review status is stored in the file rather than the version. Most if not all cases preventing the status to be moved up to the version are fixed now. | |||
For add-ons with listed versions, Beta (7) is another valid file status. Like unlisted versions, they are submitted and auto-approved. They are listed in the Developer Channel section in the listing page ([https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/noscript/#beta-channel for example]). | |||
A version can be listed or unlisted depending on its <code>channel</code>, which is set to 1 for Unlisted and 2 for Listed. | |||
A developer can hide their listing page using the <code>inactive</code> field in the add-on. | |||
