I published a chrome extension and you can access it only by clicking the link to chrome web store from chrome developer dashboard, but when you search it on the store you can't find it.
I had the same problem. You need to wait around an hour for it to register. Judging by the timestamp of the question, you should be able to see it now. For most people it will take an hour, but some users have reported that it took about a day.

A couple months ago I noticed that when using my PC instead of phone to access my online banking, the login screen would load but the Username field was greyed out, as was the Continue button. (hsbc.ca)
The register hyperlink works.
I thought it was an issue with their site, used my phone.
About a month ago, I noticed that when attachments were in my gmail, I could no longer click on them to view them. Clicking them had no discernable effect. I had to specifically download them first.
About a week ago I logged into dndbeyond.com for the first time in a while. Noticed that in lists of spells or feats, where I used to be able to click on an entry and it would expand to show more information, clicking on it does nothing. Unless I click on the name of the feature, which is a url to a new page specific to that feature.
I have tried Chrome (my default), Edge, and Firefox, and the issue persists in all of them. I have done a virus scan, cleared cookies/cache, and I just have no idea what is going on. Chrome is the only browser that has plugins for ad-blocking, as I do not use the other browsers.
Two other computers here have no issues, one on a VPN, one not. I have tried with and without my VPN. OS is Windows 10 Home, OS is fully updated. As are the browsers.
I cannot recall any software being installed prior to the issue that might be the culprit.
I would appreciate any help that could be offered.
EDIT 1: I downloaded CCleaner and after scanning, cleaning junk, checking and resolving registry issues, the issue still persists.
How much time will it take for Google to finish its review for a extension before it gets published to the Chrome Web Store?
Review times vary; some reviews complete in a few hours, others take many days, and in some cases a review can take several weeks
https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/faq#faq-listing-108
Long time no review, many days, few weeks. Our users can't wait. This is reason why we moved almost feature of extension from Chrome Extension to our own app
So it's weird. The review now take 10 days because they review all versions like its new. So if you make a push and have a small fix it's another 10 days. And sometimes it is more than 10 days.
This means a different strategy towards trying to get your extension deployed. First we are setting up a testing item in the Chrome Store Dev Section so that we can test our extension extensively in Chrome.
Second we are looking at using eval() in order to put our code in a wrapper. We already do this for FF and Safari. The real goal is to move more and more of the processing to the back end so that the need for a deployment becomes rarer.
This sounds like a lot of hoops but if you look at it from Chrome's end and the issues they have had around people doing bad things with extensions this is the price that has to be paid in order to be able to make extensions from their point of view.
I have a chrome extension, and I am creating a website for it, that has info, and a way to test it. I would like to show the number of users currently, but have found no way to do this. It doesn't have to update every day, but if it updated weekly that would be great!
Also- I don't care if it is by a outside company rather than chrome itself. all that matters is that it works.
I am planning to show something similar on my extension's site so I have googled around a bit recently. I found a repo (https://github.com/petasittek/chrome-web-store-stats) that parses information about extensions in the Chrome Web Store. It could be useful for you. I think I will end up just parsing the Webstore page for the user numbers everyday in save it to a database. My extension is also available for Firefox and I will do the same there then aggregate the results.
We're trying to work out how to resolve this issue, the current issue we have is our extension works on a unlimited amount of websites 1 of the features is a time & screenshot monitor so employer can track freelancers work other feature is ability to highlight text on any site and run a amazon search for the highlighted text for example.
We are always updating and any issues got fixed within 24-48 hours now with this happening every time we have to wait 1-3 weeks for a review according to google devs.
If we change the manifest to specific websites only then 99% of the time our extensions not going to work on all the other sites not listed. Can we do something else?
IF ANYONE HAS A SOLUTION OF WHAT WE CAN CHANGE TO MAKE THIS WORK I'M ALL EARS!
I developed a Chrome extension called TabCarousel to help monitor information like our NewRelic graphs. After realizing other people might find it useful, I decided to open source it and then release it on the Chrome Web Store.
I'm really impressed with how easy it is to release code on the Web Store, but... even a couple days after the extension has been released, I still show " users" and " weekly installs" rather than something like "7 users" and "10 weekly installs". I know I've set my extension up on a few computers, and I've helped others set it up as well. A few friends have installed it too.
Why doesn't the Chrome Web Store show any users or installations? It's not showing any data at all -- that is, " users" instead of "0 users".
Am I just missing something? I've read through the FAQ, some blog posts, and even set up a Google Analytics account and entered it in the Developer Dashboard entry for my extension. I just want to get an idea of how many downloads I'm getting so I can gauge interest like I can on other projects.
This is actually a bug, and the team are in the process of preparing a fix and getting it pushed live. I don't have an exact ETA, but it should be pretty soon.
On another note, you can still use your Google Analytics accounts to detect traffic to your landing page and in your app. And if you look for the referrer chrome://newtab you will get a very good indication of all the users who are launching your app.
Just give it few days, they don't update counters in WebStore too often. Currently it doesn't show users for any extension submitted after June 15, and yours was submitted on June 19.
