How to "Register" new addon for upload?

I'm following the directions on the Wiki to upload the addon I just created. I went into the Dev mode, selected "Addon Developer" from the debug menu. When I click on "Generate Addon's MD5", my addon is shown in the list, and I am able to generate a hash for it (even though the dialog says it isn't necessary).

However, when I click on "Register new Addon", it pops up a menu to select my addon, but the list is empty. My addon does not show. Nothing shows. The menu is completely empty. Same thing with the "Publish Addon to te4.org" and "Publish Addon to Steam Workshop".

I assume that I need to register it before I can publish it, but nothing shows up when I try to register it.

How do I get my addon to show up in the "Register new Addon" screen? Keep in mind that it does show up in the list to generate a hash for it, so I've done everything right up until that point (I think).

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

Is your addon still in folder format, or did you try to package it yourself?

I packaged it myself, and that was the issue. When I left the folder unzipped in the addons folder it worked as it should. Thank you so much!

Phew! I feel so awkward asking that question, as it seems totally irrelevant and like I'm being condescending...
