GWG https://github.com/dshanske/indieweb-post-kinds/issues/110 - Another parsing issue. Time to check and see if I broke something in the last update
#
Loqi [dshanske] #110 Parsing Issue with URL
#
GWG Might not be till Thursday

#
[miklb] speaking of parsing, where does auto-parsing posts from micropub fall on your itch list?
dougbeal|mb1 joined the channel
#
GWG [miklb]: Fairly high, but not specifically for Micropub. I also want it for bookmarklets.
#
[miklb] true
#
GWG I have to figure out why that URL isn't working. So I may be in that code anyway.
#
GWG So might be time.
#
[miklb] I’m hoping after I work out the kinks in using silo.pub for GitHub issues/stars I can extract it out into a plugin. But I have a “I want to build” ideas on my list already ?
#
GWG [miklb]: I'd like to set up a simple Post UI for bookmarks, likes, etc.
#
GWG I have a lot of ideas, you know. And I jump aound.
#
[miklb] You ship a lot of code though.
#
GWG I have the Facepile stuff, which I'll have to continue on the other side. I've never been good at working on planes.
#
GWG [miklb]: Do I?
#
GWG I never really thought so.
#
GWG I have done a lot in recent weeks admittedly
#
[miklb] I think so. You are constantly iterating on several plugins. I sincerely appreciate it.
#
GWG Well, I'm hoping they get to a point where I don't feel they need it.
#
GWG The timezone feature, for example, of Simple Location doesn't need any more after I redid the design.
#
GWG The location box design is still something I might need to tweak.
#
GWG The Parser in Post Kinds I regularly tweak.
#
[miklb] yeah, but around that point, Gutenberg will be introduced to WP and you’ll have a whole new playground
#
GWG The last update tried to accommodate inverted OGP...
#
GWG [miklb]: I don't want to do more JS
#
GWG A light sprinkling to enhance is the extent of what I want.
#
GWG That is why I may be adding a simple Post UI
#
[miklb] my 2¢ would be to do the auto-parse 1st so bookmarklets/micropub can be your Indie post UI
#
GWG Well, either way I will.

#
[miklb] GWG was there ever a plan to have bridgy publish fire on micropub posted notes? I’m just now exploring, so forgive me if you’ve answered this before.
#
GWG It does already. It sets syndication targets.
#
[miklb] doh. Running on too little sleep. This micropub client doesn’t support syndiate-to yet. Probably a good time for me to step away from the keyboad.
#
GWG Sleep well

[pfefferle] good morning

Loqi *yawn*

#
GWG pfefferle, saw your plug-in
#
[pfefferle] should this be part of the webmention plugin or should we reference the 410 plugins?
#
GWG pfefferle, would someone install 410 if they didn't install Webmentions?
[pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] yes, why not…
#
[pfefferle] seo
#
[pfefferle] GWG https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-410/ is also a standalone version
#
Loqi [Samir Shah] Description This plugin will issue a HTTP 410 response to requests for articles that no longer exist on your blog. When you delete a post or page, it records the URL for that page and issues a 410 response when that URL is requested. You can also m...
#
[pfefferle] GWG but this plugin works with custom post types instead…
#
GWG If it has merit by itself, being separate makes sense.
#
[pfefferle] but my changes are so little, perhaps we really could merge them
#
[pfefferle] will think about that
#
[pfefferle] I am sending a 410 instead of a 404 if a post is in the trash… nothing more…
#
prtksxna GWG: Apart from checking the setting and writing the excerpt, is there anything else that needs to be done to post the excerpt to twitter while using bridgy publish. I recently tried, and it just tried to publish from the content.
#
GWG It shouldn't, but if it is malfunctioning, open an issue and I will investigate

#
prtksxna GWG: I'll try again with another post.
#
prtksxna Do we use something like http://tgmpluginactivation.com/

#
[miklb] just switched to a different library in the indieweb-wordpress plugin to better fit the WordPress admin UI
#
[miklb] but it used to use that.
#
GWG It was overkill for our needs
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
prtksxna [miklb]: Which one do you use now?
#
[miklb] I believe this one https://github.com/dcooney/wordpress-plugin-installer
#
Loqi [dcooney] wordpress-plugin-installer: A PHP class for installing and activating WordPress plugins.
#
prtksxna Thanks [miklb]
