Error Uploading Salary Calculator Extension

Hi everyone,

I recently built a small Firefox extension for my website https://calcolo-stpendionetto.it https://calcolo-stpendionetto.it , which helps users calculate their net salary in Italy using updated IRPEF and INPS rates.

However, when I try to upload the extension to addons.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org (AMO), I keep getting this error message: Signing is not possible due to an error with the manifest file

{

 "manifest_version": 2,
 "name": "Calcolo Stipendio Netto",
 "version": "1.0",
 "description": "Calculate your Italian net salary (IRPEF, INPS, regional tax) quickly.",
 "icons": {
   "48": "icons/icon48.png",
   "128": "icons/icon128.png"
 },
 "browser_action": {
   "default_popup": "popup.html"
 },
 "permissions": ["activeTab"]

} I also tried switching to manifest_version 3, but then Firefox gave a warning that some properties like browser_action are deprecated or not recognized.

Has anyone experienced the same issue when uploading finance or calculator-related extensions? Is there a new manifest format or signing rule I might be missing for Firefox extensions?

Any help or examples from working extensions would be greatly appreciated. Marien Klin
