Description

Hi,

register_activation_hook, register_deactivation_hook & register_uninstall_hook are very helpful for plugins but for themes there is no such thing, yes i do know the existence of after_switch_theme & switch_theme but there is no after_delete_theme action and never will be, cause there is no access to theme php files after deactivation.

That is why i suggest to use "the plugin approach" with themes :), what do you think ?
