Can't Change Difficulty Level for Themes or Add-ons in Marketplace

Permalink
I have a few themes in the marketplace (and more to come). Both of mine are an "Intermediate" level of difficulty. However, I developed one of them so it's easier, and so I wanted to change the difficulty level.

I realize you can choose when you first submit it, but - ALAS! - you can't change it when you go to edit it later! I'm thinking this would help boost sales if people see "Easy".

Just wondering if I missed something, or if Concrete plans to make it so we can edit this detail.

those are set when the add-on is approved and we like to maintain
consistency with them. Shoot me a list of add-ons and we will do a
review to see if they should be changed as part of this week's push.

Just for everyone's reference:

Easy - Super simple to understand, anyone who can get the block in
edit mode should be able to figure out how to get it working as
desired in less than 15 minutes. ie: image block, survey block.

Intermediate - Still doesn't take a programmer to use, but you're
going to spend some time understanding the details on it. ie: form
block, auto-nav

Expert - Chances are you're going to understand some technical system
stuff to make this working. Basically this is stuff for developers,
but it's still safe stuff. IE: Designer Content, Flash Embed/XML Data,
Simple PHP block

Bleeding Edge - You might break your site with this stuff without
trying too hard. IE: security wall. We also bump stuff down here if it
looks to be dying for some reason.


So please keep that in mind. If it's not something your mom could
easily figure out with a couple minutes of poking around, it's not
"easy".

best wishes

Thanks for clarifying that! Now I have a better idea of how rate my stuff when I submit new stuff in the future.

I get the whole consistency thing - helps establish trust with end-users.
