Description
Similar to #7087 for plugins, themes that are delisted
just end up sitting there in that state forever. Not showing in searches and listings, but still available if you know of the theme name, and continuing to be updated.
If a theme isn't relisted within 12 months, the theme should really just be suspended entirely, in my opinion.
If a theme is sitting in the delisted state longer than that, it seems like either
- a) The theme shouldn't be made available
- b) The author isn't aware of it, or
- c) The theme mod isn't aware of it
Change History (2)
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
I'm at fault for some themes in both
a)
andc)
, forgetting to followup and relist a theme after temporary delisting due to a security issue, and also not suspending themes that were delisted and didn't fix security issues.This ticket may not be directly resolvable immediately, as we don't currently appear to store the
delist date
.The usage of the
delist
vssuspended
post status may also hinder implementation, as it's not clear why some themes are delisted (edit: Most are able to be determined, it's just not super clear sometimes when it's been delisted and forgotten about)
