thanks for that, but i am volunteer as well?
in previous link, as if inactive but not caused by me then you closed it so it delayed 2 weeks, now 1 week and 5 days without any review. is there any active guys here, i guess no, for my case

Hi @bizover!
I'll be picking up on this theme review. I'm sorry I didn't get to this before my vacation over the holidays but I'm back at it now. I expect to complete a first pass within the next week.

Hi @bizover,
I understand your frustration and I apologize that it has taken so long for your theme to finally get a pair of eyes on it.
I had received this theme in my queue of themes to review just before the holidays. I can assure you that I will be seeing this through and working with you to get Adubi launched on WordPress.org.
Regarding your comments:
secondly, i think y do not have exp much with license and WP. two first points are not correct so pls recheck them.
With regards to the declaration of the license for included fonts and images, I see that you have that stated in the readme.txt. I apologize, I must have overlooked that during my initial pass.
Regarding the copyright, however, you must declare a copyright in your theme’s style.css (and ideally in your readme.txt file as well). For an example of this, see _s: https://github.com/Automattic/_s/blob/master/style.css#L16
duplicate files sidebar.php & sidebar-sidebar2.php -> i think these are for left and right bars
Sounds good, I see that.
of recommend and warning, i dont think i will fix them.
That’s up to you. I will continue to include the relevant recommendations as I make additional passes through this theme. However, they are simply that - recommendations. Ultimately, unlike the required items, your theme will not be prevented from launching if you decide not to take the recommendations into consideration. I will be simply stating them as potential areas of improvement, as we both have a common goal here in making Adubi the best theme that it can be and launching it on WordPress.org. :)
and pls use standard when i upload this file, meaning 3 months ago, is it ok?
I’m not sure I understand the question here. If you are asking about how to go about uploading your corrections, please re-upload your theme through wordpress.org. Reviewers will not review themes any other way. :)
Thanks for your replies and, again, apologies for the delay with the overall process on this theme. I’m looking forward to working with you and getting Adubi out there!

thanks for reply. standards and themecheck i used for this update is from 3-4 months ago, are u using same one?
i got no required error then. license.txt are fine, i listed there. "WordPress" texts are for public templates, not for coding?
if so all required ones are gone...
#14

Hi @bizover,
Sorry for my delay, I was out for the past couple weeks.
I am using the latest standards and themecheck plugin in addition to following the guidelines listed in the handbook: https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/#the%c2%a0review
"WordPress" texts are for public templates, not for coding?
That is correct, I know I listed all of the instances throughout the theme above but the important ones are any that are public-facing. As long as none of the above are public-facing, you should be good to go there.
I'll make another pass at the latest code to ensure there are no additional unmet requirements.
Thank you!

Hi @bizover,
Below are some additional notes from my latest pass and some items left from the initial pass. Please note that I have continued to include Recommendations and Additional Notes/Info sections. It is up to you if you choose not to take them into consideration. I am just adding everything for the sake of making this theme the best possible.
Required
- Licensing: Copyright still needs to be declared somewhere, either in style.css and/or README.txt. Ideally both. Be sure to include it for the theme overall - https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#licensing
- Security and Privacy: Use
esc_attr()for text inputs andesc_html()for textareas. See library/functions.php - line 299 - Code: What is the /lib directory for? I am asking because I notice a few empty index.php files included. If these are not needed, please consolidate the code into a different directory and remove the empty files.
- Code: Removing or modifying presentational hooks is not allowed. Please remove function beginning on line 43 of functions.php - https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/browser/adubi/5.14.1108/functions.php?rev=43925#L43.
Recommended
- Code: No reference to
add_theme_support( "title-tag" )was found in the theme. It is recommended that the theme implement this functionality for WordPress 4.1 and above. For an example, see: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2014/10/29/title-tags-in-4-1/ - Code: Is the map-style.css absolutely necessary? It may be a better approach to move those few lines of code into the style.css file and, if needed, target with a body class. This would reduce an additional, and potentially unnecessary, HTTP request to the server.
Additional Notes/Info
- Code: At least one hard coded date was found in the following files. Consider
get_option( 'date_format' )instead.- page-full-width-date-time.php
- archive.php
Please let me know if you have any questions!

Hi @danielwrobert,
Thanks for your review again, but i dont think required ones are right. Please remember that i tested with theme check so none of required types should show up.
Of your review, license is gpl3, i stated this right in style.css; you dont check?
lib/ is for extended themes, i use one git for all themes so each theme will have its own lib/ folder, this is intended so pls ignore this.
The other two required errors are not correct as well. As i based this theme on bones so library/functions.php is from that base, i dont use the function that has esc_...so there is no errors here. Again, the line 43 of functions.php is for re-adding "required hooks removed by bones", you see this?
Thanks again for adding more logic when checking theme.
#17

Hi @bizover,
Thanks for your reply and clarification. Please note that, while testing your theme against the Theme Check plugin is definitely a great practice and reduces the amount of issues that come up at the review state, the plugin itself will not catch everything. This is part of why there is a Theme Review Team. I certainly recommend continuing to use the plugin but, in addition, review the Theme Review Handbook - https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/ and make sure at least those Required items are all met.
That said, I think you are misunderstanding the requirement about the license. I see that you have the GPL license listed in your style.css file, which is great. What I am referring to here is the copyright (the second item in the Licensing section here - https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#licensing). I am not seeing a copyright listed anywhere in this theme, unless I am missing it. For an example of what I am referring to, see line 16 in the styles.css of _s - https://github.com/Automattic/_s/blob/master/style.css#L16 - where it states "(C) 2012-2015 Automattic, Inc.". That's what I'm looking for. I know it's a small thing but it's a requirement.
With regards to your other feedback:
lib/ is for extended themes, i use one git for all themes so each theme will have its own lib/ folder, this is intended so pls ignore this.
Ok, thank you. Noted.
The other two required errors are not correct as well. As i based this theme on bones so library/functions.php is from that base, i dont use the function that has esc_...so there is no errors here. Again, the line 43 of functions.php is for re-adding "required hooks removed by bones", you see this?
Ok, I see what you're doing here. Thank you for pointing that out. I just saw that you were removing a bunch of action hooks but I missed that they were just hooks from the Bones framework. That part looks good to me then!
It looks like the only required item from above then is the copyright. Once you update that, I'll make one final pass to make sure nothing was missed.
Thanks again for all of your work on this!

Hi @danielwrobert,
I don't think that "(C) 2015..." is a requirement. The must here is license type and I stated it as GPL3, along with url to that content. It will allow anyone to use this theme like that, no -Copyright- here.
I think so, please re-check this with other themes as well...
#19
@
11 years ago
Hi @bizover,
Unfortunately the copyright is a requirement as well. It states in the Theme Review Handbook here - https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#licensing - "Declare copyright and license explicitly." It does not say one or the other. I know this handbook was revised not long ago so I believe this may be a newer requirement (I don't recall if it was listed in the previous version of the handbook or not). But it is required, none-the-less.
Please add your copyright to the head of the style.css file as it is done in _s on line 16 - https://github.com/Automattic/_s/blob/master/style.css#L16.
Other than that, everything else (as far as the required items go) looks good.
Thanks!

Thanks for info. But I checked some recent themes here, they are also missing (C)... As I noted before, themes here do not have copyright for good reason.
I also stated that this theme is free and anyone can use it for fun... ok?
Beside that, if anyone want to credit me, they can state "(C) 20xx bizover", all these info are already there, no need to re-write again :D
#21
@

Hi @bizover,
The copyright could have been missed on those recent themes. This is a requirement, however, as it is listed in the Handbook (which I have linked above).
Also, the license and the copyright are two different things. The license refers to what you'd mentioned above, "I also stated that this theme is free and anyone can use it for fun... ok?". The copyright, on the other hand, protects your design itself. It is requirement for theme designs to be original, as stated in the final point under the Licensing section, "All code and design should be your own or legally yours. Cloning of designs is not acceptable." - https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#licensing ... so it does make sense to require a copyright for each theme design.
Please add your copyright to the head of the style.css file as it is done in _s on line 16 - https://github.com/Automattic/_s/blob/master/style.css#L16 - and I can submit this theme for approval.
Thanks for all of your work on this! :)

The license looks to be declared just fine in this theme. Your copyright is questionable though. It should include your real name or your company's name as well.
The "copyright" statements in the readme.txt are all wrong as well. It's missing copyright information about the scripts/libraries you used and sometimes the correct license. For example, the Hybrid Core files and other items of mine (Justin Tadlock) you used are not licensed under "GPL". They're licensed under the GPL v2 or later", so someone getting this theme cannot use those things under an earlier version of the GPL. They also don't include a statement that they're copyrighted to "Justin Tadlock" with the copyright date.
#23

I complied this theme from so many resources, and for long time ago, so maybe GPL was a fast way that I thought suitable for describing almost script GPL-ing at that time. Sorry about that.
I think this is not correct:
"They also don't include a statement that they're copyrighted to "Justin Tadlock" with the copyright date.
Every author that i have referred to would make her own type of declaration, some with name some with website some without date..., but within my work I could refer to them in my own single way that may be enough to not cause any un-copyrighted misunderstanding. I dont think one has to remember and check all type of declaration then paste all in a txt file, nonsense. Moreover, scripts that I included here are full version with copyright statement as their authors already wanted inside.
Thanks,
and sorry for my foreign English.

Your theme won't be approved without the correct copyright and license declarations as defined by the theme review team. I'm one of the admins on the theme review team and am telling you that the license and copyright declarations in your readme.txt do not conform to our standard.
Also, regarding your request to release the theme under "no copyright", you may do so if you license the theme under CC0 or put it in the public domain. The GPL and other open source licenses are meant to protect your copyright while providing certain freedoms to the user.

Hi @bizover,
Your copyright looks good. With regards to your included assets, I am still seeing some licensing and copyright information that is not correct - for example, the wp-pagenavi license should also be listed as GPLv2 or later as shown in the README here - https://github.com/lesterchan/wp-pagenavi.
Additionally, as @greenshady was saying above, you're missing the copyright on some of the assets as well. For example, his Hybrid Core plugin should read as follows:
GPLv2 or later 2008 – 2014 © Justin Tadlock. https://github.com/justintadlock/hybrid-core
Similarly, any other assets you are using that have copyright information should be included, along with the proper version of the license. For the sake of being thorough, please go through all of your assets and make sure you have this information correctly listed in the readme. Once this is complete and the new version is re-uploaded here, you theme should be good to go!

Thank @danielwrobert,
Your request to add copyright statement is ok, I see it is a must in guideline
But how about other ones, such as asset copyright? I see it is a should not a must as I checked, so I can freely refer to theme as I want, not in a fixed form of name-date..... Moreover, original copyrights are kept at the header of packed files so a step of copying again is nonsense

The method described for adding copyright + license in the readme or license file is for the benefit of users of your code and the WordPress.org theme review team. This matter should've been taken care of a week ago. It's only a handful of lines of additional text to declare the proper copyright.
Chip took the time out of his day to write up an in-depth guide (https://make.wordpress.org/themes/2014/07/08/proper-copyrightlicense-attribution-for-themes/) on how we expect to see copyright + license declarations. He done this so that there would be no confusion on the part of the theme author and theme reviewer.
These are things that our team must thoroughly check. Any time a theme author doesn't follow the standard, it makes our jobs a lot harder. Then, when we have a week-long discussion like what we have here over something so trivial as a few lines of text that you could've already added, it only serves to slow down the entire theme review process even more, not just for you, but for everyone.
TRT has decided that this is the best way to organize things. You have two options:
- Follow what we've laid out and move forward with the review.
- Do not follow and I, as an admin, will close this ticket.

I follow the rules that are common here, only "must do" to reduce wasting time, whoever reviewer is. That's why I asekd which are musts and which are shoulds, most in guide above are shoulds.
Delay till now was partly by me, because I am not pro in this business and am finding free time to update within allowed time, but mostly by previous closing without notice and delay/changes of reviewers as well.
Sorry for previous reply, I will send next update for review this week

I just saw another new requirement for removing redux from theme, is it required for this submission? Thanks

No, you do not have to remove it at this time. However, any updates from Oct. 21 and later will require the use of the customizer for theme options.

Once you re-submit the updates for the copyright and licensing info, your theme should be good to go and I'll submit it for approval! :)

Howdy,
Any updates on this?
Just checking in, as it's been over four weeks and I don't want to close this ticket without giving you the opportunity to submit your latest round of fixes. Especially since it's so close to approval.
