[theme-reviewers] Figerty Theme

Mon May 28 11:33:23 UTC 2012

Can someone please do another review on this?
The reasons given by the reviewer are completely unjustified. He denied the 
theme based on the suggestions given when running the theme check plugin, 
such as THEMEPATH not being used.
The theme is based on Twenty Ten which uses THEMEPATH. So, if this is not 
allowed, why is TwentyTen being used in Wordpress as a secondary default?

Someone please take a look into this.

Thanks,
Very Frustrated Dan.

I don't think this is the same issue. We are talking about selling non-GPL
data (banner images, theme design data files). The theme itself remains
GPL. We're talking about data to use with the theme/plugin.

The question relates to the policy of WP of not providing non-GPL content
on a site linked to directly from a theme/plugin in the repository.

>From Chip's answer, and past discussions, I think it is okay for such a
site to include third party advertisements and indirect links to other
external commercial sites sites. But selling non-GPL content directly from
such a site is not allowed.

I'm sure that if ads and other external links were not allowed, there would
a lot of plugin/theme support sites in violation of policy.

Hi folks,
I have uploaded the newer version - 
http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/7947
However, I would still like to see the theme reviewed. I know everyone is 
volunteer reviewers, which I am currently in the process of becoming myself. 
But seeing themes that were submitted after mine and reviewed/approved etc 
before mine is a little ridiculous. I am sure you will all agree.
So, can someone please take it and give a yay or nay on it?

Cheers,
Dan

Hi Dan,

So you want your ticket to be reviewed before other tickets, which were 
submitted before yours? :)

Your first ticket will not lose its rank it the queue. When your first 
ticket gets picked up, the reviewer will review your second ticket 
automatically.
Plus: Since your first ticket will soon become a Priority #2 ticket, you can 
expect it to be picked up shortly.

Thanks,
Konstantin
