[theme-reviewers] Feature slider default links

[Trent Lapinski]

Cais,

I love that idea. That would be perfect.

In the meantime, can we simply link back to our themes on .org?

I mean I don't mind linking back to .org, I just figure it makes sense to be able to link back to the theme the person is using?

Like a child asking why over and over you have to preemptively step back and pretend you don't know what you know and think what are all the whys and hows they're inevitably going to ask. It's tiring, but once you get it easy sailing and it should cut down on support time a lot, especially with redundant questions.
