The first discussed guideline was that names of child themes may not include the parent theme\u2019s name. The team agreed that this should be allowed if the child theme author is the author of the parent theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next items were credit and copyright URLs. In addition to a possible link to WordPress.org, there may only be one credit link that corresponds to either the Author URI or the Theme URI from the stylesheet. Copyright notices must display the theme user\u2019s copyright, not the copyright of the theme author. The optional Theme URI must point to a site with information about the theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides that, the team discussed adding items to the admin bar and screenshots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Misc<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>\u00bb<a href=\"https:\/\/make.wordpress.org\/themes\/2017\/03\/25\/review-statistics\/\">Review statistics<\/a>\u00ab.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Community<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Showing upcoming events in the backend<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/make.wordpress.org\/community\/2017\/03\/23\/showing-upcoming-local-events-in-wp-admin\/\">In his post \u00bbShowing upcoming local events in wp-admin\u00ab, Ian Dunn introduced a plugin that displays upcoming Meetups and WordCamps near the user in the WordPress news dashboard<\/a>.
