Kevin pointed me here. I'm a longtime blogger but new to Indieweb. I'm having some config problems, can I get some help please?
#
Dylan20
I've tried to set up rel=me links for all my major profiles but LinkedIn and Facebook don't validate, even though they do have links back to my site. And the validator won't connect to Twitter at all: http://indiewebify.me/validate-rel-me/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdylan.tweney.com
#
Dylan20
If anyone has any idea what I'm doing wrong I'd be very grateful. :)
#
miklb
aaronpk did I read recently there were some issues with indiewebify & Twitter?

miklb

Dylan20: indiewebify.me might not be picking them up because of some Twitter UA detection thing. Could you try to log into the wiki
#
KevinMarks
Facebook won't show the link publicly any more

kartik, which wiki please?
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich]
Yes, twitter has been having some issues and they've been logged into the github issue queue.
#
[chrisaldrich]
Dylan20, you can try to log into indieweb.org using IndieAuth to verify that your twitter and github rel-me links are working
#
KartikPrabhu
Dylan20: yeah the wiki on http://indieweb.org/
#
Dylan20
Oh hey! That worked! Neat!
#
Dylan20
It let me choose between using email, Twitter, or Flickr. Facebook and LinkedIn not supported, it said
#
[chrisaldrich]
I had the same issue this weekend with a new test site I was putting together. indiewebify didn't work, but I could log into the website, and log into my own site with them.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I don't think Facebook or LinkedIn (and dozens of others) are supported (yet).
#
Dylan20
OK gotcha
#
KartikPrabhu
another one that is supported is Github
#
Dylan20
Minor issue: After validating with Twitter it redirected me back to the indieweb homepage, not the projects page (wiki). Then I had to log in again. On 2nd try it actually took
#
[chrisaldrich]
Dylan20, now that you're logged in, don't forget to /wikify yourself: https://indieweb.org/wikify
#
Dylan20
Thanks Chris
#
Dylan20
Oh hey ... I changed my twitter link from http:// to https:// and the validator can load Twitter now. But now it also says it doesn't link back. So: validator problem I guess
#
Dylan20
I noticed that my twitter profile encodes my webpage link as a t.co short URL so maybe that's confusing it. Anyway, FYI

[kevinmarks]
I think the problem was twitter serving pages without rel me to certain user agents

New to all this and working on putting my site together. I don't suppose anyone has a hack to implement webmention with a static site?
#
aaronpk
welcome!
#
aaronpk
and yes, several!
#
aaronpk
sending or receiving?
#
mindB
thanks!
#
mindB
and mostly receiving
#
mindB
actually may have found what I'm looking for.
#
miklb
mindB you can use https://webmention.herokuapp.com for receiving
#
mindB
wiki is fairly comprehensive but also disorganized
#
aaronpk
typically your best bet for finding things on the wiki is search
#
aaronpk
i just added some links here https://indieweb.org/static-site
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
[kevinmarks]
If you want to add crosslinks, mindB, please do
#
mindB
I'd have to have my website up already to do that. :)
#
mindB
thanks for the help guys. I'll start by using that webmention end point hosted on heroku.
#
miklb
mindB curious, what are you using to build your static site?
#
mindB
pelican. it's what I've been using to help my wife publish a blog. sticking with what I know.

#
miklb
certainly.
#
mindB
I'll make sure to update the wiki with the theme I'm working on. it's not much, but it has microformats.
#
aaronpk
now I really want a way to email a .ics file to create events on my website
#
aaronpk
just booked a flight and downloaded an .ics of the flight details
#
[kevinmarks]
Hm. There must be a parser library for ics
#
[kevinmarks]
Though recurring events are the devil
