capjamesg I have (hopefully) just finished my external link graph.
#
capjamesg 1709 edges, 619 nodes.
#
capjamesg Are there any web tools that let you easily host a network graph?
#
capjamesg Preferably free and open-souce.
#
[KevinMarks] how do you mean? as a graph db or as a diagram?
#
[KevinMarks] d3 has a fair few graph visualisations https://observablehq.com/@d3/force-directed-graph

[jeremycherfas] Somewhat stuck trying to select posts of this day and month because I can’t seem to find a way to compare date and month while ignoring year and time. I suppose I could try setting fresh variables to month and day but I feel there must be a more elegant solution. Still, too hot right now to think about it.
#
klez jeremycherfas, what language?
#
[jeremycherfas] Twig and PHP
#
[jeremycherfas] The CMS is grav, and the date I am interested in is in the yaml front matter for each post.
#
[jeremycherfas] So it is available as page.header.date but I can’t seem to extract only dd/mm

#
[jeremycherfas] Aha! I can slice the date string. Progress!

capjamesg[d] Is it proper to have more than one category on a blog post?
#
capjamesg[d] I always tag my blog posts in at least two categories (one is for reference by Jekyll and the other(s) are the primary categories for the post).
#
capjamesg[d] I don't use tags though.
#
capjamesg[d] I was wondering if anyone displays multiple categories on their blog posts.
#
capjamesg[d] What is a category?
#
Loqi tags or tagging refers to categorizing or labeling content, your own or others (tag-reply), with words, phrases, names, or other information, optionally linked to specific people, events, locations, such as the practice of tagging posts being about certain people (person-tag), like tagging people or other items where (area-tag) they're depicted in a photo https://indieweb.org/category
#
capjamesg[d] I am asking this because I am thinking about displaying all categories on my blog so I can index them on my search engine.
#
Zegnat I think the whole categories and tags are pretty interchangable. Also, at least for a while, seemed to depend a lot on your CMS of choice which ones got used
#
GWG Lots of fun stuff happening at Microsub popup

@macronimous How to Use Webmentions with #GatsbyJS https://bit.ly/36VeWIC (twitter.com/_/status/1419077570172235781)
#
@sheldon_hull https://webmentions.sheldonhull.com/ Had some fun using this template to setup a dashboard for webmentions. I've improved my webmention matching logic on my site that this doesn't use, but it still really cool! Probably worth blogging about someday. https://github.com/sheldonhull/sheldonhull.hugo/blob/main/layouts/partials/webmentions.html was work :-) (twitter.com/_/status/1419080584329142275)
