Problem uploading a theme to extend/themes repository (5 posts)

    I am trying to upload a theme to the WordPress repository but I keep getting this error:

    Duplicate theme and author URLs. A theme URL is a page/site the provides details about this specific theme. An author URL is a page/site that provides information about the author of the theme. You aren't required to provide both, so pick the one that best applies to your URL.

    My style.css file only has the author URL and no other URLs.

    Have you tried changing the author url to theme uri?

    For example:

    Theme Name: My New Theme
    Theme URI: http://myplace.tld/
    ...
    Author: Aye Kode
    Author URL: http://myplace.tld/
    ...

    Note the difference between the two address, the theme is UR_ I _ for identifier; and, the author is UR_ L _ for location.

    That's Great! You're welcome.

    I'd be interested in knowing which theme it is once you get your approval.
