[theme-reviewers] Question on Featured Themes section

Sat Mar 2 09:38:35 UTC 2013

Hi theme reviewers,

please share some thoughts on this :)

***

1.) Bryan, you said "looks like I'm out just because I only offer one
premium theme."

You mean to be added to the featured themes?

i think this is a "personal thing" to be considered by one of the admins
here.
if someone thinks that your theme is special enough to be featured.

the premium theme should not be the reason!
* please correct me someone if i am wrong *

*-> because there are several themes that are featured that offer a premium
version! *

***

2.) Emil sent a link around yesterday where you can say what should be
changed for the future.

I don't have the link yet, but i think this is something that should be
improved too,
otherwise it ends up in just having some "friends" themes in the featured
themes section.

For example we (Custom Community Theme) are and have been since end of 2010
most of the time among the most popular themes onwordpress.org (first page,
top 15) and we are still not a featured theme...

* Would be great to know at this place, if this is not a fact enough to be
added to the featured themes section? *

***

*Yeah in the end, I would be curious to know what the other theme reviewers
think about this :) *

***

Thanks, and btw - love the conversations here :)

Konrad
