aaronpk
really need a good location editor for my website. i'm getting real tired of this workflow of looking up gps coordinates on google maps and entering them manually into my storage posts 😂

#
tantek
aaronpk, your watch does GPS right?
#
tantek
can you make a GPS equivalent of teacup that "just" posts your current lat/long to your site ;)
#
tantek
(with one tap)
#
aaronpk
oh i have a whole app for that, that's not the problem
[jgarber] joined the channel
#
aaronpk
but when i post an event in the future, i want to add the location of the event including the lat/lng
#
tantek
hence venues being a better UI than lat/lng
#
tantek
what is create event
#
Loqi
create event is the act of and UI for creating a new event post, in its simplest form a new event permalink https://indieweb.org/create_event
#
tantek
what is create location
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "create location" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "create location is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
aaronpk
in order to make a map, i need a lat/lng
#
tantek
^^^ start that page with silo examples
#
aaronpk
in order to get a lat/lng i need some sort of search for the venue
#
tantek
e.g. Twitter, Swarm both have "nice" UIs for picking locations/venues which then also provide lat/long in the posts
#
tantek
no, both Twitter and Swarm show maps *without* making the user even *care* or *know* what lat/lng is
#
aaronpk
but since i'm building my site i do in fact need to care about the backend
#
tantek
you don't need lat/lng as part of the UI
#
aaronpk
i never said i needed it in the UI
#
tantek
that's the key
#
tantek
" i want to add the location of the event including the lat/lng" sounded like "part of the UI"
#
aaronpk
no i just need it bubbled through to the backend so i can make a map
#
aaronpk
right now quill has a text field for entering the location of an event, which isn't super helpful
#
tantek
right now I use URLs for venues, and then have a venue URL cache (in code) that links to @-names of venues
#
tantek
which my code then uses to POSSE the event to Twitter
#
tantek
that's how I do locations on my events
#
tantek
sorry that's getting more dev-like
#
aaronpk
i like being able to just type the name of the venue, i'll probably start with that instead of starting with entering URLs
freescholar2 joined the channel
#
tantek
auto-suggest drop down from venue cache should be doable
#
tantek
with combination of venue URL, venue name, venue @-name all in the auto-suggest

Tried logging in to indirweb with my micro.blog hosted site. No luck
#

I'm using my own domain. Izq.fm

Adrian: when I visit that domain it says it's for sale and has a bunch of ads on it
tantek__ and [eddie] joined the channel
#
[eddie]
Adrian: I’m assuming you just recently set up this domain name? I see your micro.blog site, but aaronpk mentioned he sees a placeholder site. This tells me that the records that point your domain to micro.blog is still taking time to spread across the internet. It should probably be fully functional between 24-48 hours of when you set it up with micro.blog

[eddie] that's for reporting that issue, I am now checking for a minimum of a 'name' and 'content' property to be returned from mf2py before falling back to mercury.
#
[cleverdevil]
I've deployed an updated version of Indiepaper, and tested with the article you included in the submission.
#

ooh another "big" user of mf2py! fun!

[cleverdevil]
[aaronpk] what do you think about an update to microsub to allow clients to filter channels by the `category` property of the items in the channel?
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
aaronpk
[cleverdevil]: I think it sounds like a fun UI challenge and also a small can of worms, but worth experimenting with
#
aaronpk
I'd say start with mocking up how you want it to look in a reader and let's see if we can get a couple people on board

what is snitch tagging
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "snitch tagging" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "snitch tagging is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
tantek__
(I can't believe I'm saying that)
#
tantek__
snitch tagging is a special case of explicitly person-mentioning someone in a [[reply]] to or [[quotation]] of a post which mentions (usually critically) that same someone more obliquely (like plain text or a nickname) as a way of notifying that person of the critique, either as a heads-up, or perhaps in agreement with the critique.

thx [eddie] I don't Instagram so I guess if I title photos no big issues, any time you add a photo to Indigenous it woll convert a note to a photo post-kind on my theme anyways
#
[eddie]
I guess by saying Instagram, I mean "Photo" posts as opposed to "Blog Posts with Photos"
#
[eddie]
When an mf2 parser sees a title (aka name) it will see it as a blog post, as opposed to a photo post

an interesting distinction between photography as art “has title” and photography as memories “no title”

Hello #indieweb! So much activity, it's great. I've been away hammering away at my business plan for a social media site promoting social equity. Judging by the chatter here, I just missed some very important stuff. Has anyone else had problems logging on to the wiki today?

[gregorlove] I was going to RSVP for Wednesday's homebrew. Used Chrome. Just tried on Firefox. I see what's happening. SSO in beta?
#
gRegorLove
Whoa, that's really weird; I haven't seen that before. aaronpk?^
#
snarfed
[kiai]: heh, sorry for the trouble. i believe that's actually legit; aaronpk is migrating indieauth.com to indielogin.com (and others). may have some homework to do to keep that change off various blacklists
#
[kiai]
Thanks [snarfed]. I just want to know if homebrew is happening in SF on Wednesday. Planning to be there. Finally able to get back to work on the web!
#
sknebel
it's not just a migration though, but a different site... that randomly ending up on a blacklist seems annoying
#
sknebel
(fwiw, this *might* be the correct false-positive report form, AVG's website isn't great: https://www.avg.com/en-us/false-positive-file-form )
#
[kiai]
Tantek wasn't RSVPed, so... sent him a DM. ... @sknebel was just about to say something about AVG.
#
gRegorLove
SF HWC should still be on, afaik.
#
[kiai]
Would whitelisting indielogin.com from here help AVG?

Or should I uninstall AVG and install something else? Alas, on Windows.

[kiai], whitelisting indielogin.com should work
#

no idea what's triggering AVG to think it's an attack...

aaronpk: looks like you ended up on some domain blacklist

try the link I posted to report false positive?

#
aaronpk
[kiai]: you likely don't need to do anything special for a Known site, it should work already. did you get past the AVG error?
#
[kiai]
[aaronpk] Yes, I added indielogin.com as a trusted site on AVG (menu -> Settings -> Exceptions -> URL).
#
aaronpk
so now what happens when you log in to the wiki?
#
aaronpk
(indielogin.com should be telling you what to do next if there's something missing)
#
[kiai]
Nothing. I tried using my Known site for login and got instructions.
#
aaronpk
instructions?
#
[kiai]
Just tried on Firefox, and it worked
#
[kiai]
Maybe I was missing http
#
[kiai]
yeah, told me I had to paste markup on my site.
#
[kiai]
Must include http apparently
#
aaronpk
hm it should have added http for you

It was Chrome...

Chrome adds the http for me when I submit
