[ThemeForest] Envato Review Times

I quit counting days after a month today I got first review with a soft and uploaded just now. Hope I get the same result as you did mate.

The thing I wanted to highlight is after 45+ days most of the reasons of soft reject was about updates. Bundled plugins requires update + wordpress update etc; so here another workload on que. Another reason why backlog is growing. eh?

48 days!!! :angry:

Good luck mate :smile:

36 days and countingā€¦

It is so demotivated when you count on Envato, you worked so hard for two months and you get nothing finally.
I start hoping getting a reject so then I know that I donā€™t have to wait for so long anymore.

Should I start working on my next item and upload it ?

45 daysā€¦

35 days and countingā€¦

Youā€™re my hero :joy:

2 months+ still in queue, just 6 months ago was a week max, now this is really bad, hope this will not go 1year +

Anybody here know when WordPress review times back to 15 - 20 days? :airplane:

Some things will never be the same :smiley:

Iā€™m waiting for 2 months+ I donā€™t think Envato knows this answer, thatā€™s why they donā€™t come with a plan.

They are aware of this problem, and as long as millions come in their pocket they donā€™t care about anything else.

45 days and still waiting, I donā€™t imagine that it could take more than 2 months now. :sleeping:

This can damage the whole community!

Iā€™m also on day 45th. Thatā€™s is simply ridiculous

You are just near to first review with actual review time of 47 days

What a long journey after 52 days I got approved. Iā€™m sick of this issue. Good luck guys!

70+ Days in review with 6+ soft reject :frowning:

After 50 days finally approved and up for sale

Those numbers are scary. Saw your theme on the homepage. Nice work, good luck with sales :slight_smile:

I did a small test by uploading items at a fixed interval and tallying the ids each of them got. It turns out every day around 14500 items are submitted on Envato sites (all sites combined). Thatā€™s 10 items submitted every minute And as per http://quality.market.envato.com/ ā€œItems reviewedā€ figure, Envato reviews around 23000 items in 1 day

I have submitted my item 3 days ago and I know my item has a huge mountain to climb and that I am mentally prepared to wait, I must also say that Envato is doing a commendable job of reviewing 23000 items every day. Clearly the review process seems to be a hybrid of automated and manual testing. And itā€™s also clear that there is an overwhelming amount of sub-standard products being submitted on Envato. Much more than what I previously believed.

So to all those who are in the queue, hang in tight and make sure your product stand out because this is the new reality on Envato.
