<br>This is not a specialty Theme. What falls under the plugin territory should be noted and required to be either removed or moved into a companion plugin. We do not based exceptions on how old the Theme is. Rules are equal for all.<br>

<div><div dir="ltr">I'm reviewing a rather large update for a theme that is already live, and it's very complex but the majority of the<br>code seems to be for functionality, not the actual design of a site.<br>How do we handle these specialty themes? Do we ask admin if the author has been granted an exception, or is it enough that<br>
an admin at some point has pushed it live?<br> <br>The theme <em>almost</em> works without the recommended plugin -it doesn't display the latest posts and there is a broken slideshow.<br><em>The purpose of the theme is obvious </em>and it was also first approved 16 months ago, when is a theme considered old enough to be an exception?<br>
I do feel that, since there already is a plugin, it would be a better choice to update the plugin, and clean up the theme.<br> <br>When does it become "too much"? it's a real estate theme and I'm finding options for <br>
Maximum Listings Per Search<br>Price Range Options<br>Currency Symbol<br>(+analytics)<br>etc.<br>All of these are in the themes option page regardless if the plugin is installed or not, but most of them only actually do something if the plugin is installed.<br>
