[wp-forums] Theme Support Question

[Chris Olbekson]

> Questions:

1. Define "some level of support" e.g. what would be the minimum that is

acceptable?

2. How would this be indicated on the theme's page in the Theme Directory?

3. How would a submission by a completely new theme author be handled?

4. If such a scheme could be implemented, how would this impact (if at


> all) on the handling of theme specific queries on the forums?

 So far the consensus of the theme-reviewers list is that the primary
objective is improving the quality of themes hosted on WordPress.org
and support should not be a requirement.  If it was required I think
minimum acceptable would be answering a few questions a month.  Plugin
authors generally are more active on the forums than theme authors and
I would like to find some way to encourage theme authors to be more
active.  My other suggestion is to add a usage tab on the theme
download page for any special usage instruction or faq's like "how do
I change the logo" etc.
