Actually, if the Theme developer adds to the original ticket a link to the new ticket, and does so *before* the ticket is reviewed, then it *does* keep its place in the queue. The Reviewer will close your ticket as "newer-version-uploaded" and proceed to review the most recent (linked) ticket.<div>
<br></div><div>We want to encourage you to continue to test and improve your Themes, even while they are in the review queue (though eventually, we would hope that the more developers go through the review process, the more their Themes will only need a single pass through that process).</div>

a new one, the previous one gets tag as 'new version uploaded' and you'll have

if you as the developer of the them states in the ticket of the previous version
to look at the new one we're more then likely to jump ahead to it.

theme review queue work</div>
<div><br></div>I upload an update of my theme, after waiting for N number of
days its about to be reviewed and at this point I find a bug or add a new
feature and upload a new version.<br><br>Does this keep my theme at the top
(In it's actual position before a new version was uploaded) or is it pushed to
the bottom of the queue?<br><br><br><br>
