Users would have to be aware of that fact to take advantage of it :) But I guess it's ok since it's not doing any harm.

@Mel If you change the text domain nothing will break. The text domain for themes is not defined in the po or mo files. It is defined in the i18n functions, functions.php and the header in styles.css.

The only place it could break is if someone has a translation in the WordPress language directory. Support for it was included in WP 3.7.

If the textdomain is unique, but not a literal string-match for theme-slug
- if that's the only issue preventing approval, I would not hold up
approval just for that. It will be required eventually, but right now, is
completely invisible to the end user.

Question - possibly for discussion...

I have themes hosted @ WPORG since before the theme review guidelines came in. One of those themes has the theme slug 'purple-pastels' but the textdomain has always been (& is still) 'purplepastels'.

Now I'd happily change all textdomain occurrences the next time I update the theme (it would take less than a minute to do) but what about existing users who might be relying on the old textdomain? This theme has been around for a while and I know that there have been quite a few .pot translation files created over the years.

So - what's the lesser of two evils here? Continue to knowingly breach the guidelines on this point or potentially break some user sites? I'd imagine that I'm not the only one who has this quandary.

The idea of being a part of a community is the reason I suggested an Open Discussion thread on Make/Themes: a place for the team to talk about anything of general/common interest. I agree that it's very important to foster the element of community.

Part of the reason that I recommend using the Make/Themes site is that we are moving toward Make/Themes being the community hub for the Theme Review Team. It is much more open, accessible, and searchable than a mail list, and much easier to maintain discussions, to post tutorials, etc.

Ultimately, I would like to have the mail-list reserved for Theme Review Team "business": things specifically related to conducting reviews - admin-related tasks such as ticket help/reassignment requests, and the like.

Personally, I definitely intend to post more tutorials on Make/Themes. I just posted one last week, though it didn't generate much traffic.

PS you and @tskk should have gotten email invites for Make/Themes. Watch for Emil's forthcoming announcement. :)

I'm not a huge fan of the P2 but it is extremely useful. One of the reasons I can't wait until O2 becomes available.

The main reason I feel we all have to at least post once is because we are part of a community. Be honest and answer: how many of you knew that Otto was heading the theme preview overhaul? I never would have known that Otto and several others wanted the theme previews to have a redesign. I know I brought it up sometime ago but only a few responded.

Chip, curious, since @tskk and were both nominated with the highest count for team reps will that mean that he and I will be able to post on the themes/blog as well or just updates?

If possible I would love to see some tutorials be posted on the make themes. Or a link to some new techniques. I know there is the codex but the codex isn't always updated either. In a way the blog does serve as hub on not only how to make themes but how to submit to the repo. As a theme reviewer I'm always wanting to learn new ways of using menus, widgets, shortcodes, and CSS tricks. One of the main reasons I wanted to become a reviewer.

But those are just my two cents. :)

But the idea is to encourage more people visit the Make site. :)

Honestly, for all the reasons I don't like P2, it is incredibly useful for facilitating threaded discussions, and an open thread would probably be more open and useful for general, open comments/discussions than the mail-list.

I think not many visit the make blog, Having the discussion on the mailing list will reach more eyes.

How about a weekly Open Discussion post on Make/Themes? Would something like that be beneficial?

First of all congrats to the three winners of the program ( Rohit, Zulf, and Alex )

Second of all amazing job Srikanth on the impressive amount of updates approved.

Last, I know we don't all post on the make blog(s) but I would love it if we all made an attempt to at least post once a week. I've been trying to and you would be amazed as to how much goes on at once. The support forum team, core, UI, meta and others is a great way to learn more about what is going on not only in the WordPress community but the future of it as well.

One thing I'm personally looking forward to is the Widget Customizer integration and the styling/documentation of Media within WordPress core.

Another is on the meta trac which I know not many really know about. I seriously encourage you all to at least head over to meta.trac.wordpress.org and check out some of the tickets. In particular tickets: 27, 30, 45, and  215.

So if you haven't already posted on the blog: http://make.wordpress.org/themes/2014/02/05/theme-review-incentive-january-2014-winners-and-program-updates/

Go ahead. And once there check out what the UI and core team are doing. :)

-Jose

Please change your subscription to individual email. Digests are for reading only. Please don't reply to them.

Also: I have no idea what you're talking about. The Theme Review Team has no control over your WPORG credentials.
