# petermolnar I decided to continue a project that i've been doing for weeks, namely to restore all the slugs I ever destroyed from my site, and either return a meaning ful return - eg. 410 - or redirect, if applicable. The time I had the most was in 2016; still on WordPress, with my own theme, a plethora of plugins, using composer in the plugin, etc.
# petermolnar Long story short: if you're using a dynamic CMS, backups need to be of EVERYTHING, including the MySQL server version, the PHP version; ALL OF IT.
# petermolnar Alternatively use `wget --mirror`, httrack, or something similar to take "snapshots" of your site, converted to static resources.
# petermolnar othwerise you'll be in my shoes, trying to literally recreate the past

# [KevinMarks] joseph - I think you may need the author h-card to have the same u-url as the footer one for authorship to work
# joseph_dickson Okay I'm trying to wrap my head around that
# joseph_dickson I think I follow
# [KevinMarks] you have an h-card in the post and one in the footer (the one in the post is labelled with vcard, which is mf1 backcompat for h-card)
# joseph_dickson gotcha the one in the post is probably created from the WordPress plugin... I'm thinking I should test this on a static site :)
# joseph_dickson okay that sets me on the right path
# [KevinMarks] the author-bio div looks like the right one to label with p-author h-card
# joseph_dickson the debugger is very useful. I'm making progress.

# [chrisaldrich] joseph_dickson, I've been working a bit today on a post about how to improve the default mf1 markup in WordPress core for mf2 support which will give you a more IndieWeb /friendly experience. It'll be a few days until it's finished, but hopefully it will be basic enough that even a beginning WordPress developer could add it to a theme.
# [chrisaldrich] Perhaps someone with more core experience could use it to push an update to core to create better experience for everyone regardless of theme.
# [chrisaldrich] GWG I started with your article and some examples from Sempress and a few other friendly themes and my work on the 2015 child theme I'm using.
# [chrisaldrich] Did the rejection include an actual pull request?
# joseph_dickson I got the hcard to work according to the debugger and only received a single error when I posted the second comment that time
# [chrisaldrich] or just the idea of adding it? I can't imagine any broad spectrum issues for backcompat...
# [chrisaldrich] then don't remove hentry, but move h-entry to a correct/better place maybe?
# [chrisaldrich] parsers will ignore the mf1 though right? (suggest we move to #indieweb-wordpress or #indieweb-dev if we continue on, but this may be better later after demos) unless Joe needs more help. π
# joseph_dickson well i got the h-card working so that's good enough to demo... I'll work through the issues in WP later.
