I would note exactly the same comment as the reviewer. I think such a public-facing up-sell ad, even though removable, is too far. It is also needless. Up-sell ads should be confined to the admin UI.<div><br></div><div>Chip<br>

<p>I don't see anything wrong with an upgrade to Pro version of the Theme, plugins do this all the time and unless I am off here this is acceptable. </p>

Theme: <a href="http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3597" target="_blank">http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3597</a><br>
<br>
We have talked about not doing cursory reviews, but there are just too many errors, I dont feel that the author is giving the theme enough thought before he uploads it again,<br>
causing even more errors than the previous version.... Also the theme's option page is too advanced for me.<br>
I will sadly but without tearing more of my hair off, leave this to another reviewer.. because im exhausted..<br>
<br>
Some notes:<br>
The theme displays both future and drafted posts... <br>
The author has fixed previous html validation errors but has also caused 57 new ones. <br>
He has fixed the php errors and the Layout looks acceptable when testing with the theme unit test data.<br>
<br>
Parts of his option page is copied of <a href="http://blogatize.com" target="_blank">blogatize.com</a>, wich he also credits. But I'm not sure whatever license that has, or where he got the code from. (I've never used blogatize but it doesnt look like a place where you can get code examples...)<br>
The theme options work, data is somewhat vaildated. Functions are named differently, sometimes they are not prefixed at all.<br>
He is registering and enqueuing the same version of jquery that is bundled with wp but directly from google.<br>
<br>
The default installation of the theme shows a public facing information box with how to upgrade to the pro version of the theme, but with this note:<br>
<em>(To remove this Widget login to your admin account, go to Appearance, then Widgets and drag new widgets into the Sidebar)</em><br>
The description of the theme goes:<br>
<em> iFeature: A Free WordPress Theme designed by CyberChimps.com (<a href="</em><a href="http://cyberchimps.com/ifeaturepro" target="_blank"><em>http://cyberchimps.com/ifeaturepro</em></a><em>" alt="Upgrade to iFeature Pro">Upgrade to iFeature Pro</a>)</em><br>
<em></em> <br>
-is this allowed?<br>
