[Glenn_Dixon] Not sure which channel this belongs to - but - I implemented IW on my WordPress site almost a year ago. Now I am attempting to port my site over to Hugo.
# [Glenn_Dixon] I did the basic WP > Hugo plugin exporter - which produced a lot of files
# [Glenn_Dixon] Unfortunately, most of the webmentions and things coming in from outside sources (notes, Instagram posts, etc.) now has most of the content in the YAML frontmatter. It's an ungodly mess.
# [Glenn_Dixon] Is there a better way to achieve this?
# [Glenn_Dixon] this is the plugin I used https://github.com/SchumacherFM/wordpress-to-hugo-exporter
# infominer[m] Sounds scary!
# infominer[m] Would take the code from the old setup and move it directly, forget about the exported version
# infominer[m] I mean the indyweb related code
# infominer[m] Just use exporter for the main content of each post
# infominer[m] Ton of work, any way you shake it
# infominer[m] Hacking composed html into the static site renderable chunks im experienced w... using multifile search and replace in vscode
# [Glenn_Dixon] yeah, I use the s&r in vs code a LOT - but this just makes my brain cringe ```---

# [Glenn_Dixon] I would need to edit my theme to include the mf2_photo data. I guess that part wouldn't be so bad, really
# [Glenn_Dixon] search and replace the photo url's to just "/images/year/month/"
# [Glenn_Dixon] hmmm
# [Glenn_Dixon] yeah, sounds good

# ejw Hi everyone, I recently started my IndieWeb journey. I have a question about writing webmentions. I dont want to manually markup html responses for each webmention. The solution I´m trying now is 1) having a Hugo template for the markup, 2) and a self-written script for producing markdown files with the correct yaml metadata to be read out. Is this an OK solution?
snarfed joined the channel
# ejw Or is there a canonical solution Im missing? To be sure: I use Hugo so the context is a static website
wolftune joined the channel
# ejw Right, that makes sense. Because some people with support with webmentions seem to send out microposts all the time, which to me suggests they have a very smooth integrated solution with some app or something.
# ejw In that case I´ll probably hack away at my own script to make my life a bit easier :-)
# Loqi Micropub is an open API standard (W3C Recommendation) for creating, editing, and deleting posts on websites, like on your own domain, supported by numerous third-party clients and CMSs https://indieweb.org/Micropub
# ejw Aha! That seems to be the thing I was missing! I´ll look into it, and whether it is still usuable in a static context. Thank you
# 
doubleloop What is static?
# Loqi A static site is a website that is served by a web server directly from the file system https://indieweb.org/static
# doubleloop ejw: there are some handy notes on webmentions and micropub for static sites there ^^^
# ejw Awesome, thanks for the directions!
# ejw There
# ejw *There´s a lot to find out about the IndieWeb, but I´m glad Im putting effort in. The community seems amazing.
