[ThemeForest] Envato Review Times

http://quality.market.envato.com/themeforest WordPress 4 days, Is it joke? Come On envato!

Everything seem walk to down. Unbelievable review time, and the visitors for new item (3 weeks old) also drop. Only 70 visitors, and more drop to 50 visitor on Saturday/Sunday.

54 days here

We are also waiting more than 2 month :frowning: for review.

Freaking insane! Many others authors (including me) waiting in queue for 50 days and more.
4 days Envato: http://quality.market.envato.com/themeforest , seriously @matthewcoxy !?
You should in the first place solve the problem of reviews that hang over the 2 months.

How can you explain the situation - just 4 new authors (with 0 sales) have been accepted today?
http://themeforest.net/category/wordpress .I have reason to believe that they were waiting in queue only for a few days.

What we have to do now? Delete our theme from queue and resubmite it again?
Incomprehensible behavior that should be explained.

P.S Probably my message will go unnoticed among the Envato stuff but I waited patiently
60 days, and the time has come to express my opinion.

Hi Daniel.

The current average review times (4 days New Items, 3 days for Resubmissions) listed on that page for Wordpress items are incorrect - the counter hasnā€™t been working correctly since last night, and is currently being investigated.

Review times are beginning to gradually come back down, but that one is definitely a glitch!

Hello Ben

Thank you for the quick response but still your answer does not bring absolutely nothing to the topic.
Some authors wait a few days and some others months.

I hope you will solve it quick.

Hi Ben,

Thanks for the update! Could you also please let us know what to expect as the average review times for authors who arenā€™t new to Themeforest like most of the people who are waiting right now? It doesnā€™t need to be precisely, but an estimation would be cool. I think it would calm most of us authors down if we would know what weā€™re up against right now. Thanks!

They are just taunting usā€¦

Hi James,

Last week we published this thread and no one from the Envato team replied

and as far as weā€™re concerned this is how our submission queue looks like:

Rather than threatening & warning authors on the consequences of sending unfinished items, we would appreciate if something could be done with the reviewing process because at the end from the conceptualization of a project to the publication of a project itā€™s taking 6 month instead of 3 and in 6 month time trends change (design & code) and this is counter-productive for all the authors and the marketplace

Cheers

UOU

The counter isnā€™t working correctly apparently and its not 4 days. What the real number of days for review if you submitted now is anyones guessā€¦

We have a product that is in review for 2 months and 1 day. There is a user that says that his item was reviewed in 30 days. This was just a few days ago. What is happening?

I am curious what means ā€œunfinished themeā€.
My theme is almost finished - theme will have several bugs and only 3 demos when I assume to upload. During review process Iā€™d like to fix all bugs and expand create more demos - do you think that is bad practice?

no, just create one demo and complete theme jobs for send envato and working on it.

My last wp item took 49 days to review.

Sets a New Record

WordPress in stats page says 4 days, but it been 13 days and still goingā€¦ Hope Iā€™m not for another new record @kodeforest haha.

Its back up to 19ā€¦ maybe the number counts for new items. :confused:

At least resubmission is the same. It would be nice if we can help somehowā€¦ idk
