[matt] @Gargron I'm planning on implementing it in WriteFreely, personally. It'd be awesome if Mastodon supported it too!

I have been looking for a new WP theme for a while, but not loving the ones I found. Then I remembered @cogdog made the wp-dimensional theme. This is one swwwweet theme! https://mattcrosslin.com (also added all the indieweb coolness I could).

hm, people keep moving their user profiles...
#
sknebel
does that break anything in the login logic etc?
#
Zegnat
It shouldn’t. It just isn’t going to be your actual user page. Every time you login the wiki still treats you as your domain-as-username
#
Zegnat
I wonder *why* people even move that page
#
sl007
Personally I do have another login name now because my 1&1 virtual server is in a "recovery mode" and they don't do support for virtual servers (didn't know before). They have also sent me a big letter today but this is just saying they are changing their brand name to "Ionos" now (guess they need a new name because they are ashamed). Much dead trees but they refuse to transfer my domain "sebastianlasse.de" to INWX and I couldn't fi

@jgmac1106
Had another idea. At @IndieWebCamp Berlin @sonniesedge proposed using the property attribute from RDFa for microformats rather than class attribute. So many themes or plugins style classes or use the p- and u- prefix in CSS...

[@jgmac1106] I booked the location for the week and I have got all the equipment and needed "presentation materials" (from IndieWebCamps before) ready and the other rooms by the city are organized. Day1 + Day2 + the half day 5 is like every other IWC, isn't it? Just longer sessions. Same capacity than Berlin.
#
sl007
But I could also use it for holidays. But 2 people arrive in Amsterdam the sunday before from US.
#
sl007
Proposal for an alternate schedule ?
#
[jgmac1106]
no proposal, just a thought, I could never stick around for an IndieWeb week and then a week of FOSDEM...so if people wanted to pick a 2-3 day window better at the beginning or the end?
#
sl007
But FOSDEM is just the weekend.
#
[jgmac1106]
ahhhh okay, now I am understanding more....how many registrations so far?
[cleverdevil] joined the channel
#
sl007
Still 3 ;( The reason for the 2 car shuttles were that Christopher Lemmer arrives in Amsterdam where I'll catch him up and a friend of mine is going from Düsseldorf by car anyway. But him (no. 4) can only attend on Monday and could coorganize thursday (his 3rd son was just born). Cities are very close together in the area.
#

There are still 4-5 cost-free sleeping rooms.

I was looking at attending, but it doesn't look like I will be able to make it. Got a busy December-January coming up ...

[jgmac1106] not rather / instead of but in addition to. sorry I forgot to correct this misconception re: microformats and property and class

[tantek]
we're not ditching class - to be very clear

this is only as a compat thing for sites that are stuck with a sloppy CSS framework (all of which were developed after mf2)

[jgmac1106]
Thx didn't know if it was gonna move forward... Was lurking only on etherpad during session
#
[jgmac1106]
But this could be really helpful for WP folks who don't want to worry about theme and plugin conflicts
#
[tantek]
[jgmac1106] point being please don't misframe it as property *instead of* or *replacing* class because that's not what we discussed nor concluded
#
[tantek]
that is, the way you're stating it is overstating it and will likely lead to misinterpretation
#
[tantek]
it's an option to use "property" *in addition to* class, and have parsers check it before checking class attribute, but still always check both
#
sknebel
not sure it helps for the WP issues too, unless a theme has bad conflicts with the u-* class names (which I haven't seen yet in practice), from my understanding (I wasn't at the session) that was more an authoring concern?
#
[tantek]
right that was not a concern raised
#
[tantek]
this was only about a few CSS "frameworks" that a few large companies are stuck with using
#
[tantek]
[jgmac1106] this won't make any difference with WP TBH because unless you can override on the same element, you won't be able to do anything different
#
gRegorLove
I still feel mixed on `property`
#
[jgmac1106]
But if a parser just looked to property class and found microformats there could what a theme or plugin does to CSS not matter? I get the bootstrap problem as well. p- used a lot
#
[tantek]
but worth experimenting
#
[tantek]
[jgmac1106] no because if there are elements inside that use class (because of core or theme or other plugins) they will still contribute to the objects in the page that are parsed
#
gRegorLove
iirc, bootstrap p- (padding) classes have numbers, so parsers won't catch them.
#
[tantek]
bootstrap is dying, I wouldn't worry too much about it
#
[tantek]
that too
#
[tantek]
all CSS frameworks are ephemeral
#
[jgmac1106]
Thank you CSS Grid
#
[tantek]
exactly
#
[tantek]
to some extent all we have to do is keep providing and encouraging better CSS (framework) solutions
#
[tantek]
and let the bad ones decay away
