Need Advice: Best Practices for Submitting My First Theme to ThemeForest ??

Hey everyone

I am getting ready to submit my first HTML template to ThemeForest.., and I wanted to reach out to the community for some experienced advice before I take the plunge.

I have followed the basic submission guidelines.., ensured my code is clean and responsive, and tried to keep both UX and design aesthetics in mind. However.., I am a bit nervous about the review process and possible rejection.

What are some common pitfalls that first-time authors face: ?? Are there any specific quality or design standards that reviewers pay extra attention to: ??

Also.., how important is documentation at this stage: ?? I have included basic installation steps but wonder if I should go deeper.

I would really appreciate tips from anyone who’s been through this before—especially any recent insights into what gets approved quickly versus what usually gets soft-rejected.

Thanks in advance for your help
