Hi, I had uploaded the theme on ThemeForest 3 days ago. Today it has been hard rejected.
Theme Info:
It’s a restaurant theme and I’m avoiding front-end plugins because of some custom features for instance, Day/Night mode, custom nav designs, headers. Theme is using custom wp widgets for home-page design like map, galley-showcase, articles-showcase e.t.c. Custom post types for chefs and menu items.
Envato theme check was showing custom widgets are plugins territory and WP-API error for menu items. So I had moved custom-widget and WP-API to custom plugin, and stored the custom plugin to Github which is auto-installing in theme by (TGM Plugin Activation)
Also using (Advance Custom Fields) for custom widgets and by some pages. These are big steps that are making this theme different, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong because it’s my first theme on ThemeForest!!

While I’d be able to provide feedback as to how to get this approved, I can only do after it has crossed a certain threshold, quality wise. I’m sorry to say this isn’t there yet.
