#tracyaI used press this to reply/like someone's twitter and it wanted to embed the person's post on my page.

#[miklb]looks like it’s picking up that share bar. Is that a plugin inserting that? Also appears it’s putting it in twice?
#tracyaI suspect that the customs theme I have in place may be adding to this. I'm happy with my theme and I also paid for it, so I'm not interested in changing it. Last, it appears that while I have bridgy connected to multiple social media acts, it only published to twitter. So overall I believe I have most the right plugins and accounts in place, I just may be off by few degrees. Been browsing through indieweb. The site is useful overall! :)
#sknebelfrom first look, that's potentially a bug in the python mf2 parser used by bridgy
#tracyaOk, the share bars are part of my theme. It lets me customize for regular posts and "mini posts." However, I'm not familiar with how to set up "mini-posts" (custom post templates?) to create one solely for indieweb replies/likes/tweets/ etc.
#tracyaI'ld like to keep the share bars on my posts in general,
#Zegnatfor note posts we generally recommend putting p-name and e-content on the same elements (i.e. name===content for a short note). Not sure what part of the WP set-up is responsible for that though.
#ZegnatOn the other hand, and empty name should be valid AFAIK. And that’s a Python parsing bug.
#Loqizegnat has 1 karma in this channel (158 overall)
#tracyathank you for your efforts and looking into this.
#tracyaI can come back later. you guys are really helpful. Once I'm up and running, I can start posting replies myself or at least spread the word. :)
#ZegnatIt is always a little sad to see someone run into a bug that they can’t help, tracya. But at the same time we are happy to track down these problems!
#tracyaok thank you. I created a new post with the custom type bud it didn't have bridgy available in the tool bar. so i took the short link created and posted it on quill. Quill posted it on my website but not on twitter
#tracyaok I'll come back later so I can ponder possible resolutions... it's too early to give up.
#raretracktalking of wordpress, I can't get either Mastodon Autopost or Mastodon Share to actually POSSE to Mastodon. Any ideas where I am going wrong?
#[miklb]raretrack I wasn’t able to get it working either. I have everything set up correctly with fed.brid.gy
#[miklb]fed.brid.gy is for POSSE replies afaik, not for POSSE notes. But according to that issue, mastodon *should* be picking up notes as syndication/POSSE based on what is configured. But it’s not.
#ZegnatI think it is supposed to be as if your own website is a Mastodon instance? You talk the same protocols, so people can follow you and receive messages from you inside their favoured Mastodon instance. So not really POSSE’ing anything?
#[miklb]And so far, no one has replied to the questions, so kinda in the dark. Until I can figure out how to POSSE to mastodon, I’m not really interested in replying to notes.
#raretrackyes, I'd be happy with POSSE working, something to build upom
#[miklb]Zegnat, I may be using POSSE loosely in the case of Mastodon, but the concept is the same. I want to post a note on my site and it show up in Mastodon, not have to post from a web app.
#raretracki used to be able to POSSE from Known, but not any more. was round about the Mastodon 2.0 update - could be coincidental to that of course
#sknebelnot sure where that hfeed is from or what it's supposed to do
#ZegnatWhat sknebel says ^^^. After hand-parsing and discussing. We also agreed that both the PHP and the Python parser got it wrong. Sadly in different ways.
#aaronpkAre these parser issues or spec issues? Have you captured them in an appropriate place?
#ZegnatThe spec issue sknebel links covers a big part of it. But I’ll also check the separate issue trackers.
#[miklb]I believe WordPress adds the hfeed to the body class so unless there’s a function to remove that from single posts it will get included. I think.
#sknebelit's not on the body, but I guess a template can shift around what's the "root" of an article or someting? on the body it'd be fine, since the mf2 h-entry would override it
#[miklb]my bad, the body is getting hentry/h-entry
#ZegnatYeah, the problem is that the body is correctly set to h-entry but that within the body there is a nested hfeed.
#GWGsknebel: In WordPress or in general? Both are tricky for different reasons
#sknebelin general, triggered by what we saw earlier I've been trying to think through backcompat again
#chrisaldrich!tell tracya: If it helps, Brid.gy has a "preview" button that you can use to test what it will post from a given URL. For most vanilla themes, it's going to include everything in the_content, which is likely why your share buttons were showing up.
#GWG[pfefferle]: Press This I just wanted to update the documentation mostly for now
#GWG[pfefferle]: Indieauth, I've already started on fixes.
#GWG[pfefferle]: I checked the spec, and then talked to aaronpk and the code uses a currently deprecated callback. If I move to the method in the specification, then I should be able to make it service-agnostic, so you could change a setting and use a different Indieauth server.
#GWG[pfefferle]: I have my reasons for wanting to do that. If that works, my stretch goal is to actually implement a server, but I'm prepared to push that off as long as the code is no longer tied to one endpoint.
