The Theme slug is derived from the Theme Name as it appears in the header block of the style.css file.<br><br><br>Cais.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at 1:07 PM, Doug Stewart <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:zamoose@gmail.com">zamoose@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Is it a correct assumption that the theme upload tool, and thus the<br>
source for the Theme Repo, takes themes' long form names and<br>
"slug-izes" them to create the slugs, and thereby their eventual<br>
`wp-content/themes/[theme slug]` locations, particularly those<br>
installed via the back-end WordPress theme installation procedure?<br>
<br>
If that's true, is there any way to force the upload tool to use a<br>
theme-author-specified slug instead? This might not make a huge<br>
difference to single use themes, but I'd like to be able to specify<br>
the slug in my parent theme so as to make sure the Template: line in<br>
my child themes is a) consistent b) not littered with -'s c) defined<br>
by me.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
