[jeremycherfas] WithKnown does not have any moderation tools. There is an Akismet plug-in but no way to see what it is doing afaik.

mblaney doubleloop that's so strange, I get bcc'd into the same email and gmail gives me a pass for dkim.
#
mblaney anyway hopefully you have another email now saying you can sign in :-) let me know how you go with it.
#
[jgmac1106] mblaney are you still manually setting up each instance or were you able to automate any parts?
#
mblaney hey jgmac1106 yeah it's all automated now, just using a moderation queue.

#
[jeremycherfas] What does a HEAD request in an access log mean?
[datashaman] joined the channel
#
[datashaman] a head request is a way for the browser to get metadata about the resource without having to download the resource
#
[datashaman] perhaps a pre-download request to get size of the file

[jeremycherfas] Hmm. Looking for a file called add.txt or similar. Well, it wasn’t there, so I hope no harm done. Thanks.

#
GWG [jeremycherfas]: I use HEAD for webmentions to check if something is a valid resource.
#
[jeremycherfas] I see. So if you don’t get a 200 back you stop right there?
#
GWG [jeremycherfas]: Pretty much.
#
GWG But it isn't a standard.
#
GWG Not every webmention endpoint does that
#
aaronpk what do you mean it's not a standard?
#
aaronpk the webmention spec says senders may make a HEAD request
#
aaronpk https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/#sender-discovers-receiver-webmention-endpoint
#
GWG aaronpk: I meant it isn't required, so not every webmention receiver or sender does it.
#
GWG By the way, I do it to verify incoming webmentions

hs0ucy Hi, i have an homemade static site generator and i would like to use Micropub with ...
#
hs0ucy What's the options?
#
aaronpk what is a static site?
#
Loqi A static site is a website that is served by a web server directly from the file system https://indieweb.org/static_site
#
aaronpk https://indieweb.org/static_site#Micropub
#
hs0ucy aaronpk: thanks, maybe sitewriter.net is a good option for me.
#
hs0ucy I will test it.
