Here we go again... Themes moved to the front page!

Yet another month goes by and the Themes to the front page BUG rears it’s ugly head again.

I don’t have any themes that are effected by this but come on now.

Also… how does a guy get featured on the weekly features or anywhere else for that matter? I have 7 WP themes with on TF with and average of 100 sales each and never have been featured anywhere on TF. What does a guy have to do?

That made me laugh.

I seriously can not think of any valid excuse for why this “bug” needs over six months to get fixed…. The excuse of “It’s in our queue” and “we’re working on it” just doesn’t cut it! Even if it would take months and months to resolve this with a permanent solution, at least a temporarily solution should have been in place to prevent certain authors from abusing this bug.

This pretty much sucks for authors who don’t know the trick or those who do know but refuse to screw over other authors.

And why aren’t authors who, knowingly and willingly, abuse this bug being handled properly and given an official warning? When there is some copyright issue going on, Envato jumps all over it within a matter of hours, yet certain authors are just being allowed to do something which actually hurts other members of the community.

When this issue first arose, I trusted Envato to deal with this professionally and in the best interest of the community… now, several months later it just starts to look like either they just don’t care and/or just accepted it and actually don’t plan on dealing with it.

Seriously, fix this thing for crying out loud!

Since the management already mentioned they do see the need to get this fixed, it appears the mandate is there… so if the programmers don’t have time / are not capable of handling this, perhaps hire someone who can…

I personally don’t mind, especially when it’s a high seller because it’s either obvious or shows me yet another top seller – eitehr way it’s a winner for the buyers.

As an author I’d be ticked off if one of my themes got bumped off because of it though.

Guess waht I am saying is, for all the great and awesome stuff the developers do – I’ll give them this one little bug which for all we know could be a bit of a nightmare.
