# bearina. can someone give me pointers how to handle instagram posts? what I mean is: I scraped all my instagram posts and want to integrate them to my WP blog. I know what to do but the indieweb plugins give me post type options I don't quite now what to do with.
# bearina. Do I post these as photo type? but they have captions and some of the posts have more than one photo. Or can I integrate custom taxonomies in the indiweb functionality?
# bearina. I'd appreciate any help 🙂

mahboubine for the next iteration of my website I envision this:
# mahboubine a single feed where types of content I make reside: recipes, movie reviews, short tweet-esque posts, book reviews, EVERYTHING
# mahboubine but then the cool thing is, when you click on any of these posts to read the full article, it loads with a customized CSS depending on the post type
# mahboubine for example a movie review could have the look of those old movie tickets, and a recipe could be written on a torn page background with a cool font
# bearina. that sounds cool! @mahboubine

[jeremycherfas] What is photos?
# 
Loqi 📷 A photo is a post whose primary content is a photograph or other image, with an optional caption. With multiple photographs it becomes a multi-photo post https://indieweb.org/photos

[capjamesg] [artlung] Do you have any experience doing this?
# [capjamesg] IIRC you are using WordPress?

# bearina. Thank you Jeremy!
# bearina. So at the weekend I’ll figure out the rest 😎 I just noticed there’s a WP channel I should probably have asked the question in. Sorry, I’m slowly figuring this out
# bearina. Great. I already have his website open in a tab and see now on his indieweb profile that he has tons of interesting blog posts I’ll have to check out. So much new information! I’m so stoked to be here

[artlung] [capjamesg] mahboubine yes, the instagram posts which I have bulk imported manually, and imported via IFTTT, and now manually add one at a time have a different presentation because of a different root theme file. I use the tag 'via-instagram' and trigger different look and feel based on that. I use the tittle as the caption (no matter the length) and then include image (or images) in the body. There are many ways to approach this. Custom post
