Open Floor During the open floor, [@kafleg](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kafleg/) shared that “Some of the live themes in the repository have promotional text in the theme screenshot, which is against the guidelines.

The reviewer can subjectively ask you to change screenshots if they find that it is not appropriate._” Host [@bijayyadav](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bijayyadav/) thanked everyone who joined the team meeting and ended up.
