Make Theme URI and Author URI Page Message Clear

Open kafleg opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Now, the message if the theme URI is invalid. It shows,

Expected to receive a 200 status for https://www.templatesell.com/item/markup-seo-wordpress-blog-theme/. Received 404. See: https://github.com/WordPress/theme-review-action/blob/trunk/docs/ui-errors.md#page-should-return-200-status

We can change the text or we can link to the updated guidelines.

Is it the text that is not clear, or is the test wrong? Was it not a 404? I can tell that it is not a 404 now.

For theme authors who know 404 page is not allowed, they can understand it. However, for those who are not familiar with the guidelines, they need a clear message about why the 404 pages in Theme URI and Author URI are not allowed and they need to fix it.

I think it should be self explanatory that 404 is an error.
