#
mblaney regarding earlier repost discussion, I've just finished implementing actual reposts. (before it was more of a blockquote thing, that didn't keep the original author)
#
mblaney since I'm now keeping the author, I'm storing the extra info (like me being the reposter of an article) in categories.
#
mblaney so then my reader shows that it's a repost when it displays the categories, along with the original link.
#
mblaney when displaying the actual repost, I've added who it was reposted by next to the original author. here's an example if you're interested: https://unicyclic.com/mal/2017-01-22-When_exposing_a_crime_is_treated_as_committing_a_crime_you_are_being_ruled

#
mblaney Loqi that is a strange choice for an excerpt... from what I believe is a well marked-up h-entry :-P
#
mblaney (oh that's ok actually... I missed that it was split across two lines in my irc client)

#
aaronpk i'm adding mf1 markup to my site for recipes and it's kind of painful
#
aaronpk i forgot how much nicer mf2 is to work with
KevinMarks joined the channel
#
KevinMarks Unmung's indiecard has a recipe mode
#
aaronpk i'll see how it does on mine
#
aaronpk TIL you can't name a PHP function "yield" even if it's a function in a class
#
KevinMarks This says its an uber for time, so maybe you can get a weekend for Bitcoin https://cointelegraph.com/news/how-ethereum-based-uber-of-time-chronobank-could-boost-cryptocurrency-adoption

#
aaronpk i just figured out how to add bullet separators between items in a line of text \o/
#
aaronpk (with css)
#
KartikPrabhu on a plaintext? without extra markup?
#
aaronpk it requires wrapping each item with a tag but that's it
#
aaronpk hm now i want to post code snippets to my site like codepen
#
KartikPrabhu then you could use <span> and the ::before pseudo-element
#
aaronpk that's what i did!
#
KartikPrabhu you could also make it a numbered list then using CSS counters
#
aaronpk http://codepen.io/aaronpk/pen/jymeyV
#
KartikPrabhu https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Lists_and_Counters/Using_CSS_counters
#
aaronpk definitely don't want numbers
#
KartikPrabhu is that supposed to be a list sematically?
#
aaronpk no
#
KartikPrabhu oh ok then this look fine. Else I would have suggested using <ul> and then removing styling from it
#
aaronpk it's more like this in reality: http://codepen.io/aaronpk/pen/jymeyV
#
KartikPrabhu aah yeah that makes sense
#
aaronpk but i may only have some of those pieces of info and i don't want to write a bunch of logic to render the separator in the html
#
KartikPrabhu I use the "remove styles from list" method to list tags in one line: https://kartikprabhu.com/#latest-articles
#
aaronpk ah yeah i think i do that too
#
KartikPrabhu no, the separator in CSS is better, since it is presentational
#
aaronpk oops apparently not, maybe i should fix that
#
aaronpk oh yeah good point

miklb GWG now I"m contemplating writing a plugin for post kinds to add templates.
#
GWG Oh?
#
loqi.me created /100days (+30) "prompted by sebsel and dfn added by sebsel" (view diff)
#
GWG miklb: The plugin supports templates limitedly, but I want to expand it.
#
miklb then I'll read the plugin code and just see if I can expand it
tantek joined the channel
#
miklb GWG oh, so the kind_views is what you are talking about?
#
GWG miklb: Yes. But I don't like the way I did it. It is a bit messy.
#
GWG So I want to clean it up
KevinMarks joined the channel
#
GWG I think I need to take a more aggressive approach because people are having issues with the markup, which I originally considered beyond the plugin
#
miklb why not flesh out more of what you have and document it vs starting from scratch?
#
GWG miklb: That is my intention. To make it easier to use.
#
GWG miklb: That is the cleaning part. Documenting and ordering
#
miklb another question while reading through the code, the get_embed function only seems to have FB & Google+. Does Twitter then work automagically?
#
GWG miklb: WordPress supports Twitter already
#
miklb hmm. I thought I tried a note with a Twitter link and it didn't do anything with it. I don't use the visual editor though

GWG miklb: Post Kinds will be updated after Syndication Links
