Addon search not working properly

Permalink
I made this experience several times, obviously there are addons I cannot find on the addon page within my c5 installation although I find them on the c5 marketplace! -> Why??

Hi,
This is intentional. It may not apply to your particular circumstances but it is helpful for many developers.
The quick search for add-ons available from your site is targeted towards an end user (customer) that may not have your skills and knowledge... therefore only the "easy to use" add-ons are offered through this search. More complicated add-ons are best implemented by a developer (you, in this case) and are searchable through concrete5.org.
The right sidebar in the add-ons search has the option to filter by skill level and you'll see the add-on you selected is an "Expert Level".
I believe this is inconvenient initially, but saves a lot of time later if your client applies something to the site incorrectly and expects you to repair their mistake :)

Hope this helps
