No, nothing like that. It just requires adjustments to the theme options page like you'd see with plugins.<br clear="all"><br><br>Bryan Phillip Hadaway<br>

If it does – that’s crippleware. I still say no either way; it cripples
the theme by not activating by placing big huge words on the end users

they're not trying to upsell or anything, so I don't think that applies exactly.
It's just an unconventional setup that requires further "user activation steps"
than normal.<br clear="all"><br><br>Bryan Phillip Hadaway<br>

<div>I know a lot of plugins, after "activating", still need to
actually be activated in the plugins settings, but is this allowed for
themes?<br><br>After activating a theme I'm reviewing on the front-end of the
theme appears at the top:<br>
<h1 style="MARGIN-TOP:50px;COLOR:red">YOU NEED TO CLICK ON THE CHILDISHLY
SIMPLE OPTIONS BUTTON IN ADMIN / APPEARANCE TO ACTIVATE THIS
THEME</h1><br>Now, respectively, some themes are more complicated than others
and need to be appropriately adjusted, but can an exception be made here or
not, any theme absolutely must simply just work out-of-the-box?<br><br>Thanks,
