[unoabraham]
[tantek] No, I did not, but I had downloaded the version from Github.
#
[unoabraham]
Today, I downloaded from the Known website and it installed perfectly.

!tell unoabraham, the easy way to grab a FB permalink is to copy the "time ago" link.
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

[unoabraham] I can help with questions about Known, in terms of facebook integration I think we will lose that with Bridgy and Jeremy answered your question about permalinks
#
[unoabraham]
Ok. Thanks.

How to POSSE? External service like IFTTT?
#
jeremycherfas
POSSE to FB? I'm afraid I don't know. I know it is being deprecated on 1 August. For now. I always do it manually. Then I copy the link manually and add it to Syndication Links in WP.
#
jeremycherfas
There is a FB plugin for WithKnown https://github.com/idno/facebook

[idno] Facebook: Facebook plugin for Known
#

I expect it will stop working soon.

In general, I am against automatic POSSE or cross-posting of anything. The one exception is micro.blog, which gets things from a couple of my feeds.

I love the Twitter Known POSSE I used to pay $60 a year for it even though the idno plug ins were available but that was only way the company monetized at the time and I liked the team
#
[jgmac1106]
I still get charged $60 annually but it isn't for a specific service or plug in. Not sure if they will charge next year or if shop is totally folded up

I was asking about POSSE for Known, as currently I'm doing it to Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Micro.Blog, and Mastodon.
#
[unoabraham]
I have tried a lot of services, but right now I am POSSE-ing with Jetpack from WordPress and I expect that to continue working.
#
[unoabraham]
I haven't had a play with Known yet, only installed it, but based on the backend and the simple interface, I certainly plan to use it.
#
jeremycherfas
Try the Known FB plugin first.
#
[jgmac1106]
I can kind of see a future where Known is just my Micropub engine and I connect to it with tools like Indigenous
#
[jgmac1106]
Though the reply only being available in the status updates in annoying as I can't include images. You can also only POSSE status to Twitter. I need to do article to POSSE to LinkedIn
#
[jgmac1106]
I tried micro.blog but I like HTML and not being forced into Markdown and it just feels like it it's built for the iOS crowd
#
[jgmac1106]
The idno bookmark (which is also the like) can look ugly
#
[jgmac1106]
Other than that I love it. I keep trying to mess with the CSS to add some line spacing but haven't got that working yet. Keep trying
#
[jgmac1106]
In the comments. The rest of the custom CSS and javascript works well

Hello all. I've tried to add paragraph level deep links to Known via Anchor js but it's not quite working yet.

[unoabraham]
[jgmac1106] Have you had a play with pages and how to customize the homepage? I see your site is WordPress, with Known running on a subdomain.
#
[jgmac1106]
Yeah, I also have 37ish different Known Blogs so I can shoe you bunch of different set ups

Anyone know what I would need to add as an endpoint to get Known to syndicate to Twitter using OmniBear?
#
[jgmac1106]
[unoabraham] here is an example with multiple pages using categories. I kept feeds on homepage for this one but have set up networks for folks with static homepages http://edu307.networkedlearningcollaborative.com/

@mapkyca when you say download from GitHub and not withknown.com do you mean from here: https://github.com/idno/Known Should I select a different branch besides master?

@[jgmac1106] aye, pick the master from github to get the bleeding edge. Also started building *unofficial* but signed periodic builds here https://www.marcus-povey.co.uk/known/ which might be useful to folk
#
mapkyca
Btw, I fixed a bug in the facebook plugin that was preventing it working for some people on signup

#
[jgmac1106]
@mapkyca okay I didn't know bc I always see, "This build is still failing"
#
mapkyca
I might remove that from the readme, it's misleading - it's failing because the travis build seems to have an incompatibility between the mongodb driver for php and the server that's installed, and I've not had time to get to the bottom of it

#
[jgmac1106]

#
[jgmac1106]
