I pushed a few changes to clean up the organization/linking on this page, and this seems pretty good to go.

However, the old enable version of the feature flag is still referenced in the release notes. I couldn't find any updated copy for this section, and wasn't sure if it should come from Product vs my own edits.

Good catch. This should now link to the use-connectors.md page with the note that you can disable (opt out) via link to use-connectors.md#disable-automatic-connector-template-fetching.


## Add Connector templates manually

For full control over building blocks offered by the Desktop Modeler, download element templates for individual Camunda 8 Connectors manually, i.e. through the [Camunda Marketplace](https://marketplace.camunda.com/). Make them available to the Desktop Modeler via the [standard element template search paths](./element-templates/configuring-templates.md).

@conceptualshark I believe we should revert this change of the link.

From the Desktop Modeler the market place is not available as shown in the linked URL, nor is any of the "integrated UI".

@conceptualshark Cf. 27cabcd#r1732955161. I'll revert the change of URL and update the release notes according to #4187 (comment).
