[pfefferle] !tell prtksxna I am not aware of a bug like that… can you try to delete all the comments of this post and re-send it via brid.gy?
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
[pfefferle] good morning
#
Loqi guten morgen
#
prtksxna Hey [pfefferle] o/
#
Loqi prtksxna: [pfefferle] left you a message 1 minute ago: I am not aware of a bug like that… can you try to delete all the comments of this post and re-send it via brid.gy?
#
prtksxna [pfefferle]: I'll try that now
#
prtksxna [pfefferle]:
#
prtksxna [pfefferle]: That worked :)
#
prtksxna The author image and URL is still wrong though, possibly because of https://github.com/pfefferle/wordpress-semantic-linkbacks/issues/99
#
Loqi [lostfocus] #99 Correct author url

#
prtksxna [pfefferle]: Do you think that might be an issue in my install as well?
#
[pfefferle] sure, might be… if you send me some links, then I will have a look at your installation later
#
prtksxna Thanks [pfefferle], here you go - http://prtksxna.com/2017/03/27/published-breathe-to-the-chrome-web-store/
#
[pfefferle] ok
#
[pfefferle] miklb dshanske just sent a remindet to the WP.org plugin review team, to ask about the state of the indieweb-press-this plugin…

GWG Greetings
#
GWG [pfefferle]: What do you think of a bulk edit refresh option?
[xavierroy] and [pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] GWG can you give me an example usecase?
#
GWG Refreshing a webmention manually if there was a parsing issue

#
[pfefferle] ah ok… but isn’t this too individually?

#
[jemostrom] pfefferle I’ve been having some problem with the WP iOS crashing and it looks like the IndieAuth plugin is causing this. It looks like it hasn’t been updated for a while, is it outdated?
[pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] jemostrom yes! I really have to update it asap!
#
[jemostrom] pfefferle OK, I’ll mention to the iOS app developers that I’ve contacted you about this.
#
[pfefferle] sure, thanks
#
[jemostrom] Uploading photos crashes the iOS app and we have been trying to track it down for a while now. So I assume everybody is happy that we found the cause.
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] oh, ok oops ?
#
[pfefferle] jemostrom but I cannot see a direct connection between the plugin and picture uploads… does it work when you disable it?
dougbeal|iOS joined the channel
#
[jemostrom] Yep, turn on - iOS crashes on upload, turn off - upload works just fine. Repeatable. Although the iOS app shouldn’t crash even if a plugin does something wrong … so I’m not blaming you ?
#
prtksxna ヽ(ー_ー )ノ An auth plugin crashing the ios app, that is massive indirection!
#
[jemostrom] I’m not 100% sure that IndieAuth is to blame, the only thing I can say for sure is that it seems repeatable for me. The iOS app could do something strange which causes it to crash and IndieAuth is completely innocent. So I hope they can figure out what the exact problem is.

#
[pfefferle] ok, missed the answer of WordPress…
#
[pfefferle] tantek GWG miklb snarfed Since you don’t appear to legally represent that group, we need to change the plugin slug.
#
[pfefferle] We recommend the following: press-this-indieweb
#
tantek what is the plugin slug?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "plugin slug" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
[pfefferle] indieweb-press-this
#
[pfefferle] is there a trademark?
#
tantek no
#
[pfefferle] ok, then I try to argument that this IS an official plugin
#
[pfefferle] and that I am one of many that represent the community
#
tantek you can link to the github org as an example if that helps
#
[pfefferle] I did initially ?
#
[pfefferle] seems to be a standard answer

#
GWG What is the issue?
#
Loqi issue is a special kind of article post that is a reply to typically some source code, though potentially anything at a source control repository https://indieweb.org/issue
#
GWG Own what?
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
[chrisaldrich] GWG: the way I'm reading it, it sounds like WordPress thinks that IndieWeb is a trademarked private entity and isn't letting the plugin through thinking that it infringes on the group's rights. They're just being overly careful.
#
GWG They approved Indieweb Post Kinds
#
GWG I shortened the name, but the slug still says it
tantek, davidmead, prtksxna_ and [pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] GWG I got an explenation... its because I created the indieweb user
#
[pfefferle] and they are very careful with plugins that have user account names as prefixes
#
[pfefferle] so they will move the ownership of the plugin to the indieweb user and then approve it
#
[pfefferle] so every time we want to submit a plugin that is prefixes with indieweb- we have to use the indieweb user
#
prtksxna_ This blocks stuff in Gutenberg is really cool! I hope I get time to try something with it soon :)
#
[pfefferle] GWG tantek done, they accepted it
