morning all - getting a slew of errors from /nfs/c03/h05/mnt/56448/domains/davidjohnmead.com/html/blog/wp-content/plugins/indieweb/includes/class-hcard-user.php preventing me logging in to my site. any ideas? Seems to be about simple-icons.php
#
GWG
davidmead: What version are you running?
#
davidmead
I updated it, maybe a week ago
#
davidmead
i can’t log in to find out

#

if you go to http://davidjohnmead.com/blog/wp-login.php you can see the errors
#
GWG
davidmead: Can you log into a shell, remove the plugin, and reinstall it?
#
davidmead
i don’t know how to do that
#
GWG
davidmead: Let me think. That's why I rushed to fix it when I realized the mistake, but you were in the narrow window there
#
davidmead
I should be able to FTP in and change code if that’s a help
#
GWG
davidmead: Who is your service provider?
#
GWG
For hosting?
#
davidmead
media temple
#
GWG
They also have FTP
#
GWG
If you can browse to the plugin, you can remove it.
#
GWG
The plugin would be in wp-content/plugins/indieweb
#
GWG
Sorry for the inconvenience
#
davidmead
I can FTP in using Coda. So just delete the plugin and try logging in again?
#
GWG
Yes.
#
GWG
Then install the latest versiobn
#
GWG
Then install the latest version
#
davidmead
log in successful :-)
#
GWG
davidmead: Apologies for the inconvenience
#
GWG
davidmead: Hope you like the improvements once you get them
#
davidmead
no worries GWG. Appreciate the help getting it back going again. looking forward to seeing the new stuff :-)
#
GWG
davidmead: Icons Icons Icons
#
GWG
I added an icon set as a development dependency over manually creating one
#
GWG
So when those people update their icons, I can run a script and update ours
#
davidmead
that’s great
#
davidmead
seems to be all up and running again. thx
#
davidmead
i see brid.gy in there now (i haven’t looked for sometime) if i’m already registered i don’t need to go through there too, do i?
#
GWG
No.
#
GWG
In the summer, I added links to register inside the app
#
GWG
The plugin, not app, excuse me
#
GWG
davidmead: Anything else not working?
#
davidmead
it all seems good GWG. Couple of syndicated checkins and instagram posts didn’t come through, but i’m not sure that was related
#
GWG
davidmead: What are you using for that?
#
GWG
Bridgy pulls comments from Instagram, but doesn't post to it.
#
davidmead
ownyourgram for instagram
#
davidmead
ownyourswarm (i think) for checkins
#
GWG
That shouldn't be related to this. Although if your site was broken for a week...
#
davidmead
Yeah. I’ll have to log into them and see if it’s all connected still

Hi. I can’t get photos to appear in my checkins from OwnYourSwarm. The photos get uploaded to Wordpress but don’t get inserted into posts.
#
[stefp]
I’m using Post Kinds too.
#
GWG
[stefp]: I can address that one.
#
GWG
Standby for a second
#
GWG
I don't think I accounted for checkins with photos.
#
GWG
I always thought of them as separate things.
#
GWG
But, let me account for it
#
[stefp]
Thanks
#
GWG
Actually, let me try this a different way.
#
GWG
On the Micropub side
davidmead joined the channel
#
GWG
Actually, I'll go with updating Post Kinds.
#
GWG
Easier in the short term
#
GWG
[stefp]: Give me a few and I'll send an updated version. I see a few other tweaks related I can make.
#
[stefp]
Okay thanks.
#
GWG
[stefp]: Version 2.7.6 should be available in a few minutes
#
GWG
It's running through the checks now.
#
GWG
It also adds an audio kind template and fixes a video template bug.
#
[stefp]
Thank you. I’ll try it as soon as it appears.
#
GWG
Tell me if it works for you
#
[stefp]
Will do
#
[stefp]
That worked. Thanks 🙂
#
GWG
[stefp]: Any time. Though not usually so fast
#
[stefp]
I was getting a bit frustrated with OwnYourSwarm
#
GWG
[stefp]: Any reason why?
#
GWG
I spent some time trying to get Post Kinds to play nice with it
#
[stefp]
the output could be a bit erratic
#
[stefp]
I’ve had photos appear sometimes and not others
#
[stefp]
but recently none
#
GWG
[stefp]: Well, because of the way the properties are interpreted.
#
GWG
Bear in mind, OYS sends the properties and Post Kinds and/or Micropub render them
#
GWG
So, start with the WordPress side and we'll bother the OYS creator if we need to
#
[stefp]
I appreciate the complexity of these things and the work that’s being done
#
GWG
What is your site, out of curiosity?
#
[stefp]
stephenpieper.net
#
[stefp]
bit of a mess at the moment
#
GWG
I thought we had a last.fm logo. I know we don't have a micro.blog one.
#
GWG
Hmm...
#
GWG
Any other pain points you've noticed in any Indieweb affiliated plugin?
#
[stefp]
Is the double Photo in Post Kinds supposed to be like that?
#
[stefp]
I edited out part of the view file to fix that before
#
GWG
[stefp]: Double photo?
#
GWG
On checkin only, or on something else?
#
GWG
I'm assuming its the result of the code I'm waiting for Micropub to set to stable.

#
[stefp]
oops
#
GWG
[stefp]: Post Kinds automatically adds any photos you uploaded and attached to the post.
#
GWG
So if you also added it to the content, it will double.
#
GWG
To be honest, I should figure out a way to check that.
#
GWG
It only does it if the kind is set to photo. It will either use the featured image if set, or an attached image if no featured image is set.
#
[stefp]
I could fix it before by editing out part of kind-photo file.
#
[stefp]
but that hides OwnYourGram photos now for some reason
#
GWG
[stefp]: They aren't automatically added to the content.
#
GWG
But, I have an idea.

[dshanske] #138 Only Add Photos to Photo Kind if not in Post Content
#
GWG
Just watch that
#
GWG
I'll get to it
#
GWG
I'd try now, but It's 2PM here and I haven't had lunch yet, so I'm going to go eat.
#
[stefp]
No problem 🙂
#
[stefp]
Thanks again
#
GWG
Any time.
#
GWG
I want it to work well.
#
GWG
For others and myself
#
GWG
Most people give me ideas I might not have thought of to make it better
#
GWG
So, I love the feedback
#
GWG
And notice, I fixed 4 other things while I was in there
#
[stefp]
Good work
#
GWG
On that note...there's a bowl of soup with my name on it somewhere
