I was just going to repeat what Emil said, but noticed the 'update mail' link. Yes, two weeks ago a user complained about some missing function which was introduced in WordPress 2.9. So he could have been running 2.7 or 2.8 or even older version.<br clear="all">

I've had a feedback saying that my theme has somehow broke her Wordpress.<br>
I'm at lost, and I really can't believe since my theme is absolutely safe,<br>
so I wanted know your opinions about this.<br>
<br>
<br>
Here's the e-mail:<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
Carla, I added your 'sleek black' theme to my Wordpress website and<br>
it completely wiped not only the website, but also the login page - it<br>
has taken me 10 days to reset the website. Please can you remove the<br>
theme from the Wordpress gallery - it's dangerous!!!!<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
and my response:<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
Hi, I doubt that it is caused by the Sleek Black theme.<br>
<br>
Have you had any other themes or plugins installed?<br>
<br>
Wordpress themes have no power to delete the Wordpress itself,<br>
and I have almost 20,000 downloads and I never had anyone having<br>
problem with it.<br>
<br>
I hope you can figure out what caused the problem.<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<br>
her second e-mail:<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
I have used several different themes on my wordpress site and never<br>
had any problems. Recently I had the same problem with another theme<br>
available in the online gallery. The last problem I had was caused by<br>
the fact that the theme was not designed with CSS stylesheets, which<br>
is a requirement for Wordpress.<br>
<br>
I'm not going to test yours again, for obvious reasons, but you might<br>
like to check that you have complied with the requirements for<br>
Wordpress-powered sites. I would think it unlikely that this is an<br>
isolated incidence, and it's certainly very bad advertising for you as<br>
a designer.<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<br>
my response to this:<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
Thank you for your concerns about the theme.<br>
<br>
but just want you to know that,<br>
all Wordpress themes on Wordpress.org are revised fully and<br>
processionally reviewed by Wordpress administrators.<br>
They have very strict guidelines on, even for small errors on a theme.<br>
<br>
and if my themes had such critical problem it would have been stated<br>
before even the themes in on public. =)<br>
and my theme is obviously approved by Wordpress which means it is<br>
validly coded, with no problems.<br>
Hope that helps,<br>
<br>
sorry to hear about your problems and good luck with your website! =)<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<br>
Her response to this:<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
I will contact them in that case, to let them know about the problems<br>
your 'theme' has caused me, since you seem so sure of yourself.<br>
<br>
You would do well not to be so arrogant, in the meantime.<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<br>
I'm kind of upset to be honest,<br>
since I never had anyone saying such thing about my themes. :/<br>
I really want to know your guys opinion.<br>
Thank you!<br>
