Can we get some clarification on the following TDC items?
1) Navigation: Is style layout stable with all categories showing?
What does this mean? Categories displayed as a navigation menu, categories
listed in a sidebar list, something else?
2) Widgets: Is theme widgetized as fully as possible?
What is the minimum standard? Is merely a widgetized sidebar.php
acceptable? If multiple sidebars (columns, e.g. leftcolumn.php,
rightcolumn.php) are included, must all be widgetized? Must other template
parts be widgetized (e.g. footer.php)?
3) Widgets: Does the theme require custom widgets?
This seems to be a YES/NO question. What is its purpose? Are custom
widgets acceptable? (I assume so.) Are we testing for code quality/display
of included custom widgets?
4) Widgets: Are standard widgets setup? Should they be?
Good question: should they be? And even better question: what is meant by
"standard widgets"? Does this refer to widgets that are added to a sidebar
by default? (And if so, how is this done?) If not, what does it mean?
5) Widgets: Do any standard widgets need to be overridden?
Again, this seems to be a YES/NO question. What is its purpose? What are
we testing: duplication of widget functionality, correct filtering of
default widgets, or something else?
Possibly/probably more later. Anyone have anything to add?
