   I'm sorry if this is covered elsewhere, I don't spend a lot of time around here these days.

   How do we go about reporting a theme that's posted on wordpress.org? Last I heard they weren't allowed to hide links in the code, correct?

   The Wasteland theme:
   http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/wasteland
   It has a hidden link in the footer to emailaddresspro.com and not only this, but the author saw fit to encode the footer:

   <?php eval(base64_decode('Pz4gPGRpdiBpZD0iZm9vdGVyIj4N....

   Also, for anyone out there using this theme and wanting to get rid of the link, simply delete everything out of the footer file and replace it with:

   <div id="footer">
   
   <p><?php _e('Copyright',''); ?> © <?php print(date(__('Y',''))); ?> <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a>
   &nbsp;</p>
   
   </div>
   </div></div>
   <?php wp_footer(); ?>
   </body>
   </html>

   All that does is decode the code and remove the link.

   I applaud you for posting that here, but I think it also needs to go here:

   AT

   wordpress

   DOT
   org

   and thats an email address.
