[jgmac1106] just made a website for our HWC: http://elmcitywebmakers.com/
#
gRegorLove Whoa, the colors kind of hurt the eyes
#
GWG I look like I am lurking
#
gRegorLove If you keep the red, the text on it needs better contrast.
#
[jgmac1106] thx I am totally guessing when it comes to colors
#
[jgmac1106] gwg happy to take picture down if you do no t like it
#
GWG Do I look like I'm lurking?

Zegnat Good morning IndieWeb
#
Zegnat a11y << https://clrs.cc/a11y/
#
Loqi ok, I added "https://clrs.cc/a11y/" to the "See Also" section of /accessibility https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=59125&oldid=58613

#
[Rose] Does anyone who uses microsub know of a way to "mark all as read"? I've got my own Aperture/Watchtower install, and I'm using Moncle
[grantcodes] joined the channel
#
[grantcodes] [Rose] mark all in a channel as read is part of the spec, but not mark *everything* as read
#
[grantcodes] But it is up to clients what they use / expose in the ui
#
[Rose] I want to mark channels as read, that's ok!
#
[grantcodes] It might just not be built into monocle, together has a button for it
#
[Rose] Unfortunately I'm not seeing it in Monocle, and Indigenous is struggling to sync
#
[Rose] Aha, that sounds good
#
Zegnat Maybe ek has a method for it? That should be easy enough to run
#
Zegnat What is ek?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "ek" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "ek is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
Zegnat What is ekster?
#
Loqi Ekster is a Microsub server written in Go https://indieweb.org/Ekster
#
[Rose] Together is not letting me login
#
Zegnat ek is /Ekster
#
Loqi ok
ingoogni joined the channel
#
[grantcodes] Hmm looks like it's not parsing your site for some reason [Rose] It doesn't handle redirects very well, so it could be that
#
[Rose] Well, I'm using the recommended IndieWeb plugins, but it's possible I changed something that shouldn't have been changed
#
Zegnat What is together?
#
Loqi Together is a reader that was initially conceived at the 2017 IndieWeb Summit in Portland by Jonathan LaCour and several others during the Putting it all together session https://indieweb.org/together
#
[grantcodes] Hmm, probably not your fault, I'll have a look
KempfCreative and [kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
aaronpk [Rose]: I haven't added it to Monocle because I haven't figured out a good UI for it. Suggestions welcome!
#
swentel It took me a while to get that right in indigenous too
#
[grantcodes] swentel: do items get marked as read on scroll in indigenous now?
#
swentel [grantcodes], not yet, I've been trying to get that in, but it's very tricky
#
swentel [grantcodes], there are two options now: either mark all as read per page (so, in case 30 unread, first 20 will be unread when clicking on channel, clicking 'next' does the rest - there' also a mark all read button then)
#
swentel or
#
swentel do nothing and have 'mark all read' globally (using last_read_id) and/or mark read per item
#
swentel I'd love to get scrolling in though, would be nice
#
[grantcodes] Ah ok, makes sense 🙂
#
[Rose] [aaronpk] I'll look into options!

jacky morning IndieWeb!
#
jgmac1106[m] Morning Jacky. Meant to tell ya. You got the best compliment about your web design at IWC New Haven, "See that's what I want. I want to meet him. His website makes him seem interesting. I need mine to do that

jgmac1106[m] I
[Zegnat] and wolftune joined the channel
#
jacky aww! thank you!
[kimberlyhirsh] joined the channel
#
[kimberlyhirsh] I'll echo that - I love both your site & your domain name, jacky.
#
[kimberlyhirsh] (Both jacky.wtf & black.af, actually.)

jgmac1106[m] Though her tagline became "I tell the truth through my lies and exaggerations" so there is that

#
[kenbauer] I made some edits on that etherpad [jgmac1106] and Chris Aldrich: https://etherpad.indieweb.org/OpenED19
#
[kenbauer] also, can I tag someone chatting via the app? I assume that is the IRC connector.
#
Zegnat I don’t think you can tag people who aren’t on Slack specifically.
#
Zegnat Just write out their IRC names and assume their clients will notify them
#
jacky they'd have to know those names first ;)
#
jacky if you wanna find them, peep /chatnames
#
jacky what is chatnames
#
Loqi Chat names is a list of chat regulars sorted by nickname, with their website and usual timezone(s) https://indieweb.org/chatnames
#
Zegnat I’d assume the IRC bridge uses the IRC name as the name on Slack

bronzehedwick hello, how can i join the indieweb ring? is it open to anyone? aka listed here https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/directory
ingoogni and [schmarty] joined the channel
#
[schmarty] hi bronzehedwick. there aren't very many instructions, but i am happy to help out as i can.
#
[schmarty] the first step is to sign in at https://xn--sr8hvo.ws/. you'll need your own domain with some extra information on your homepage to do web sign-in. you can find more info at https://indiewebify.me/ if you need to set that part up.
#
[schmarty] once signed in, you'll be issued a pair of links to put on your homepage, to help folks continue navigating the ring when they arrive on your page.

#
bronzehedwick thanks @[schmarty], appreciate the help! i do have my domain setup and was able to login via indieauth. i'll add those web ring links when i get home!
#
[schmarty] bronzehedwick: great! that should pretty much be all the steps. if you want to make sure you show up in the directory, the dashboard shows the info it found on your homepage and has buttons to remove or refresh it.
#
bronzehedwick perfect, thanks again!
#
jgmac1106[m] Twitter is giving Sadik such a hard time trying to register an app to use Bridgy. Wonder if being from Ghana causing extra scrutiny
#
snarfed jgmac1106[m]: um, what? you don't need to register a twitter API app to use bridgy.

#
jgmac1106[m] Sorry not Bridgy... The native POSSE in Known then
#
snarfed ah ok
