    Two themes called Vantage...

    There has been some discussion recently about the existence of another theme called Vantage, and how some people had been prompted in WP admin to 'update' and finding that the other Vantage theme had overwritten their Appthemes' theme...

    I can't help worrying about this - I thought that WordPress theme and plugin names were unique? Has the problem arisen because Appthemes' don't register their themes with the WordPress repository? A search of the repository reveals the other Vantage, but not Apptheme's vantage...I guess because it is a paid theme? But there must be some way to prevent this issue arising - I am concerned that clients could also be prompted to upgrade and find themselves destroying their site and demanding that their developer sort out the mess free of charge....which obviously wouldn't be great.


    Any thoughts, Appthemes?
