<b><font size="4">Hola Theme Review Mailing List Members,</font></b><div><br></div><div>I've been creating a boilerplate for authors to use when submitting to the theme repository based on the recs via Codex and Theme Review Guidelines. I'm trying to tackle many of the issues that the guidelines suggest and would appreciate it if someone could help me take this further by reviewing my boilerplate in order for me to build this up to the required specs.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The boilerplate has been run through <b>ThemeUnitTest.xml</b>, <b>WP_DEBUG</b>, <b>Theme Check,</b> <b>DeBogger</b> and <strong style="word-wrap:break-word;display:inline!important;margin-bottom:0.2em;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12px;line-height:16.78333282470703px;white-space:nowrap;background-color:rgb(252,252,252)">Log Deprecated Notices.</strong><span style="word-wrap:break-word;display:inline!important;margin-bottom:0.2em;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12px;line-height:16.78333282470703px;white-space:nowrap;background-color:rgb(252,252,252)"> The theme is kinda a double edge sword as I'm also trying to keep it maintained for other Authors that don't necessarily wanna build a theme for submission. </span></div>
