Hi @uniteug,

I have looked at the theme and at this point, it does not follow the requirements. The Theme Review Team does not hard reject themes, we want you to resubmit your theme, but we need you to read the requirements more carefully.

Required

1 The site title and the tagline do not show in the Customizer
Evidence: template-parts/header/header.php:18, template-parts/header/header.php:35, inc/customizer.php:364, assets/js/customize-preview.js:48, assets/css/heditra.css:173
Why this is Required: With a logo set, the header prints the image and puts the site title in a screen-reader heading. The Customizer refreshes .heditra-brand_name, and that class is not in the logo markup, so the title does not update until the logo is removed. The tagline is printed with screen-reader-text, so visitors do not see it, and the preview script only writes the new tagline into that hidden element. On the test site the header shows the logo, not the site title, and the tagline is not visible there.
Required change: Show the site title and the tagline on the page, including when a logo is set, and refresh both in the Customizer preview.
Reference: ​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#functionality-and-features

2 The screenshot is not the theme after activation
Evidence: screenshot.png
Why this is Required: The file is 1200×900, but it is a demo site named Heditra News, with the menu Actualités, iPhone, Android, Tests, Astuces, Download and Deals, and articles such as “iPhone 17 Pro : notre test complet après trois semaines”. None of that text is in the theme. On a normal activation the homepage is the same layout filled with the site title and the existing posts.
Required change: Replace screenshot.png with a capture of the theme as it looks after a normal install.
Reference: ​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#screenshot

3 The Manrope source URL does not exist
Evidence: readme.txt:82
Why this is Required: Manrope is bundled, and the readme gives ​https://github.com/sharanda/manrope as its source. That URL returns 404. Every bundled font needs a copyright, a license, and a source that can be checked. The SIL Open Font License credit itself is fine.
Required change: Point the Manrope credit at the real source of the files in the theme.
Reference: ​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#licensing

Recommended

Theme URI is missing
Evidence: style.css
Recommendation: Theme URI is optional. If you add one, it must be a page about this theme.
Reference: ​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#files

Runtime checks performed: keyboard, focus, and skip link were fine. The text domain heditra-news matches the theme slug. Theme Check notes for custom-header and custom-background were not required, because the theme does not use a header image or the custom-background feature. The homepage, header, footer, Customizer preview, templates, and readme.txt credits were checked in the code and on a test install.

Please read the full required list before the next upload: ​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/

I am leaving this ticket open so you can upload an updated version here.

Regards,
Denis

Hi @uniteug,

Thank you for the update. I have reviewed version 0.6.5 against the issues raised previously.

Screenshot follow-up

Please provide a more representative screenshot

Evidence: screenshot.png; readme.txt:113.

The replacement is 1200 × 900 and shows a minimal installation with “Hello world!”, rather than the previous populated demo. That addresses the concern raised about the previous screenshot.

However, the new image is dominated by a large empty hero area with a gradient. It shows almost none of the theme’s news layout, navigation, or content modules, making it difficult for users to understand its appearance.

Please replace it with a clear capture of the actual theme using suitable sample content and properly licensed images. The screenshot should represent the theme accurately and should not look like an advertisement. Sample content does not need to be bundled with the theme.

Reference: [Screenshot requirements](​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#screenshot).

The theme is approved for final review.

Regards,
Denis

Hi @uniteug

• This theme currently includes more than three custom Customizer textareas. Only a maximum of three textareas are allowed; exceeding this limit will be considered a content creation issue and is not permitted for themes in the repository.

Thank you
