# 18:20 Loqi [Doc Searls] For perspective, we are at #2 above, spreading some love at IIW (the Internet Identity Workshop) toward Indieweb, at a breakout session hosted by Tom Brown. I’ve always liked Indieweb, and have wanted to be involved with it, but have found myself i... # 18:23 GWG Webmentions should just work, unless you turned off the global settings for notifying other sites... for pings # 18:24 tbbrown that's a possibility as i'm not familiar with his settings # 18:42 tbbrown it might be a while before i can troubleshoot with doc again. i've got his email to send him questions about his config but i might just manually send the webmention for now # 18:44 tbbrown one thing i noticed is that his blog doesn't support https. i wonder if that might be a problem [jeremycherfas] joined the channel
# 18:49 tbbrown i think i've had problems using it to send webmentions to plain http links in the past [miklb] joined the channel
# 18:50 [miklb] looks like my webmention to Kevin’s site didn’t show up either # 18:51 [miklb] oh, no nevermind it did. Your like is right above my reply so it looked like it came from you at first glance # 18:51 Loqi [Kevin Marks] #WomenBoycottTwitter is making me realise how much of my morning routine is going on twitter. It's helping me think about #indieweb # 18:53 tbbrown oh. i can do webmention from indieweb-jekyll. the problem is sending one from doc's wordpress. # 18:54 [miklb] right, I’m on WordPress so I was checking to make sure my webmention went through to his site # 18:54 [miklb] just coincidence your like is right above my mention # 18:57 GWG My first name at my last name dot com dougbeal|iOS joined the channel
# 19:01 GWG Admittedly, the WordPress documentation could use improvement # 19:01 tbbrown thanks. i did not check "Attempt to notify any blogs linked to from the article" which i think is what you referred to above # 19:06 GWG Since installing the plugin indicates that you want webmentions, it should activate them. brokaw joined the channel
# 19:27 [miklb] activate or at least throw a warning that the setting needs to be changed for WM to work # 19:28 [miklb] someone may activate the plugin not understanding the ramifications if they’ve explicitly changed that setting # 19:31 GWG Miklb, feel free to +1 the suggestion # 19:37 GWG We also should update getting started in the Indieweb plugin doubleloop[m] and tbbrown joined the channel
