3. Open Floor

During the open floor, @kafleg shared a question from @bijayyadav.

Hello everyone. I’m reviewing a theme and it is a child theme. I checked the author’s profile and found that there are more than 50 child themes for a parent theme.

Do we’ve any guidelines on how many child themes can be created for a single-parent theme? I find it quite absurd creating so many child themes for a single-parent theme.

We were not able to answer this during the meeting. If you have any feedback or suggestions for it, comment down below.

David B also asked a question about accessibility and @kafleg answered him. You can read the entire conversation in #themereview channel.
