Theme Tag Translation Ready

[rinkuyadav999]

As i read, All theme text strings are to be translatable. > ​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/handbook/review/required/#language

In that case, seems it is compulsory and there is not any use of 'translation-ready' theme tag. Because all themes on directory should be translation ready. if we apply filter with 'translation-ready' checkbox, it will return all themes.

This change makes sense. The theme review team is planning on having a new look at the theme tags again and it would be best for this tag to removed then as we make other changes then just this on it's own.

I don't think themes that haven't been updated in 2 years show up in search results, and we've required that themes be translation ready for 2 years now: ​https://make.wordpress.org/themes/2014/12/09/theme-review-team-weekly-notes-the-logs-are-3/

So, it should probably safe at this point to remove the tag as it's a standard feature.

@rinkuyadav999 you said it's fixed but I can see the translation-ready tag in the themes api and in the response

​http://api.wordpress.org/themes/info/1.1/?action=hot_tags

Should this be closed?

[rinkuyadav999]

@dingo_d Yes, it is removed from theme tags and also from WordPress core theme filters. you can close the ticket.

The api still shows the tags, so this needs to be fixed as well. I think I know where to fix this so I'll make a patch probably next week since I'm out of country.

Remove the translation ready tag from the themes API

[dingo_d]

I've added the patch to remove the translation ready tag from the themes API. Once this is merged we can close the ticket.
