I’ve used a couple of frameworks so far, but after hearing a lot of good words about the Redux Framework, I decided to give it a try. After months of experimenting I think that my first WordPress Theme based on Redux Framework is done. But ThemeCheck.org doesn’t share my opinion…
Searching the web, i see that a lot of authors are complaining about the errors that ThemeCheck shows on almost every theme that uses this framework.
This are the errors *(5) that I get when I check my theme on ThemeCheck.org:
-
Customizer : Sanitization of Customizer settings Found a Customizer setting that did not have a sanitization callback function in file extension_customizer.php. Every call to the add_setting() method needs to have a sanitization callback function passed.

Now, I’ve tried to get help from the Redux Framework’s slack channel, and also thru the docs but no luck…
Is the https://docs.reduxframework.com/core/theme-check/ updated?
Did you had these or similar errors when checking your theme on themecheck.org?
Did your theme got approved to TF regardless of this errors on themecheck?
Any help at all would be appreciated.
