<div>Hi Chip,</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for the reply. </div><div><br></div>I guess that was an awkward way of saying that without the custom front page set, the theme will not be displaying all the features I've tried to make available through the custom front page template. <div>
<br></div><div>I've also built an automated example content loader that creates a front page along with some secondary pages, a few posts, a couple custom post-type items, generates a menu, and attaches featured images where useful. Would a feature like this be considered for use when setting up the theme? <br>

I have a theme that went through it's first round of review last week and as I'm fixing the few issues that were listed I realized I had a question about how themes are displayed on the directory. The theme I'm working on uses a custom frontpage template. Without applying it things don't really work the way they should. Will a "home" page with the correct template be applied as the Front Page in Settings >> Reading if this is how the theme works best? </div>
