Managed to add XFN friends to this extension I'm using

Does anyone use XFN friends?

Tom Morris' old site had it on the blogroll apparently

I did on my blogroll and am trying to use it more. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
#
[dave]
Maybe that section of the extension could also have links of followed things as well as just friends. Stuff like that. Discoverability and all that.
#
GWG
I am not knocking it

May need to improve the look of it but it works well elsewhere on the indieweb so far
#
[dave]
Less fortunately, though, I was looking for folx' use of `/[pu]-(x-)?follow-of/` and it seems the examples linked from the Indieweb wiki are no longer examples
#
[dave]
[tantek] forgive me if I've already asked this (or asked too many things already in general) but is https://gmpg.org/xfn supposed to be an empty page? It's linked from several places on the Indieweb wiki and elsewhere on the web in general, but doesn't have any visual content beyond the creamy background color.

I don't know who beatonma is but they're gonna wake up tomorrow to a whole bunch of bugfixes and new feature PRs on this extension...

[dave], https://indieweb.org/XFN see also section has an internet archive snapshot. the 1.1 link works too
#
gRegorLove
Do we need 5FN now that HTML5 superseded XHTML? ;)
#
gRegorLove
[dave] you should add yourself to indieweb.org/XFN#IndieWeb_Examples and maybe expound on your reasons for using it.

Over breakfast I told my wife (who regularly builds WP sites for clients) about microformats, and she’s now been working this morning on figuring them out and reaching out to theme builders whether they want to incorporate them.

That would be an amazing development, tonz!

[tonz] we need help forking and updating Independent Publisher to fix the microformats if she wants to help or practice. [jackjamieson] and [asuh] going to help after we each finish up a project
#
[tonz]
[jgmac1106] I will let her know that.

I may also help since I did some work on it ages ago in a PR

#
[dave]
[gRegorLove] will do when able, just figured it seemed like something in need of fixing for the sake of other interested parties since even the gmpg landing page points to the page that seems to be broken

@gwg I will fork the repo. I am going to do a test install, put in the plugins, and post one of every post kind. We know many of the issues already they are small.
#
GWG
Yes, but there are a bunch of technical issues, such as no support for archive names and descriptions, which Post Kinds uses
#
GWG
But that's more WordPress than mf

↩️ Sorry the first time thru your impressive bio I read microformats as microfarts... my bad.
