# 00:15 j12t Is there a description somewhere what exactly one has to do to indiewebify a typical Wordpress theme?
[miklb] joined the channel
# 00:18 [miklb] I guess it depends on what defines “indiewebify” as
# 00:21 j12t miklb: "best practices". I guess I could take one of the recommended themes and "diff" it with the original, but I figure that might be messy.

# 00:26 [eddie] j12t: I think the main thing in that regard would probably be adding microformats2 markup to the theme. It allows your site to be parsed by others
# 00:26 Loqi eddie has 10 karma in this channel (28 overall)
# 00:30 [eddie] Still early stages but it allows me to at least stay up to speed on things. And hoping for more improvements to it as I go forward.
# 00:30 [eddie] I’ve been using it for a couple weeks and it works decently. Although the recently added image support has some layout bugs I’m hoping to get fixed shortly

# 00:43 Guest61315 j12t re: indiewebify a wp theme (or anything), see /IndieMark and pick what level of IndieWebification you want :)
# 00:44 j12t I was hoping somebody had written a post "how I indiewebified the XYZ theme" or such ... :-)

# 06:16 Loqi [Chris Aldrich] For those interested in more and who know a bit of code, David's also got a "master class" on adding microformats to modern themes in his commit trail for updating/upgrading the TwentySixteen theme to be more IndieWeb friendly: https://github.com/dsh...

# 11:35 sknebel (so really, posse scenario, since the site itself isn't a silo)
# 11:38 Zegnat Well, the question is of course, how would the site (that isn’t a silo, as you say) mark up the post to make it a video post ;)
# 11:42 Zegnat documents the use-case and the twitter card format
# 11:52 sknebel interestingly, the "podcast" link in the post is a link to a video file - so in this case they could mark it up as video

# 14:59 jjuran Are there microformats for posting an annotated disassembly of a program?
gRegorLove, [miklb] and snarfed joined the channel
# 15:29 GWG snarfed: aaronpk is helping me check the code on my token endpoint.
# 15:29 snarfed GWG: this is a token endpoint you want to put in the micropub plugin?
# 15:30 GWG I tested it with the Micropub plugin last night. It worked
# 15:30 GWG I just want it bulletproof as it is controlling access to people's site
# 15:41 sknebel jjuran: not that I know of (I actually can't think of any structured format for that? is there one I'm missing, and if yes what is it used for?)
[eddie] joined the channel
# 15:44 jjuran sknebel: I was responding to schmarty’s hypothetical IWC Sunday project example of an assembly language program that generates microformats. :-)

# 17:23 gRegorLove tantek_: hehe, well to be fair it was upgrading utf8 to utf8mb4, which is fully backward compatible. didn't have to deal with double-encoded or mis-encoded data. 4-byte emojis were being dropped before, that's all :)
# 17:23 gRegorLove I also did the minimal amount to get it working; didn't upgrade the entire db just the one table
