!tell aaronpk I'm hoping to make use of composer/installers (https://github.com/composer/installers) which lets a registered plugin type be installed to a location other than /vendor. Will mean we should be able to use composer to manage plugins.

doing it now, at least this time I remembered to make a copy of my stylesheets so I do not have to redo all my theme modifications...we should make it easier to switch fonts and themes...shouldnt require user to learn how to make a theme
#
@jgmac1106
Wow, thx https://www.marcus-povey.co.uk I have updated by @withknown install using @reclaimhosting easy to use SSH access to add composer and then pushed the latest update, I love people who love open source (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/1OgYvU)

Thanks mapkyca. I followed the video and, fingers crossed, everything seems to have installed properly.

seems every post I make i throw an error for a missig read post endpoint (probably me making broken plugins) and missing a delet page for the video plugin....by the way my error is 1.4 gig, can I delete it and start over? that is a ton of space
#
[jgmac1106]
i have hundreds and hundreds of errors from today, how can i sift through to find the correct one?

Trying a few things here and no errors so far.

mine seem to all becoming from the read and video plugins. I am going to remove them

A 500 points to a fatal error, so it should be the last (or near last) in the file

looks like time to delete mastodon plugin for a bit .PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function getElementsByTagName() on boolean in /home/jgregory/public_html/quickthoughts/IdnoPlugins/MastodonEmbed/Main.php:36

I think this is it.
#
[jgmac1106]
will file issue with Mastodon plugin after work
#
[jgmac1106]
but can I delete my error file and start over to clear 1.4 gigs of space?

Yes, I would have thought so, although it might be worth finding out why you're getting so many errors / turn down the log level a bit

[jgmac1106]
it is mainly just two plugins I think, community ones made (one by me) probably riddled with errors

[jgmac1106] I checked my error log and there’s a load of those Read endpoint errors but they start from when I installed that plugin last month.
#
[stefp]
so I don’t think the update to Known has caused them

That moment when I'm 10 minutes into writing a post on my @withknown blog about a new project (inspired by @OnlineCrsLady ) and I accidentally close Firefox and lost my post :( Back to the drawing board. I have all the tabs open that are part of it though at least.

So my #FacebookFreeFebruary experiment was interesting. Not going to delete my account but changing the way I use it. Part of that is attempting to get the Known plugin to work to connect and post to Facebook. I believe that I followed the correct setup instructions but I get the following error when attempting the "Connect Facebook" button from the Facebook plugin on my account settings on my Known install

[ken]
Yuck.

Unfortunately if you're trying to post to profiles, facebook posting won't work any longer as facebook changed their API recently.
#
mapkyca
pages still work I think

[jgmac1106]
Yes and that is standard across all platforms and all the web.
