Umm..its not webmentions for comments, it is the old Webmention form plugin
[kevinmarks] and [miklb] joined the channel
#
[miklb]
that is confusing then
#
[miklb]
“Be sure to disable the old webmention-for-comments plugin”
#
GWG
I think so. I had the same initial reaction
#
GWG
Oh, and hi miklb.
#
[miklb]
howdy. Feeling better?
#
GWG
A little
#
GWG
Just a head cold
#
GWG
Excited though. I have a token endpoint now.
#
[miklb]
I look forward to catching up on that.
#
GWG
I have an issue to fix. For some reason, the default isn't working
#
GWG
miklb, do you have any ideas re token endpoints?
[eddie] joined the channel
#
[miklb]
no, it’s not something I’m familiar with.
#
[miklb]
I mean, I get the gist of it, but not something I’ve done anything with code wise
#
GWG
I was thinking of functionality

Hi GWG, thanks for pointing out the misunderstanding.
#
GWG
I misunderstood too initially, as I said.
#
[colinwalker]
At least we know now.
#
GWG
What about you, colinwalker? Token endpoint wishes?
#
[miklb]
GWG I was curious if it would be good to test IndieAuth on indiewp.com for logging in since we could use our own domains, assuming that is a goal
#
[colinwalker]
Beyond my ken I’m afraid.
#
GWG
miklb, you need an authorization Endpoint.
#
[miklb]
OK. Then I’m still confused on what exactly you building. I’m just going to sit back and wait 🙂
#
[miklb]
^you are building.
#
GWG
miklb, Indieauth has two servers. Token issues access tokens to login to your account. Authorization IDs you to your site. Combine them, the authorization Endpoint identifies you and authorizes the token endpoint to issue a token.
#
[miklb]
clear as mud 🙂
#
[miklb]
I’ll just wait until its done and maybe it will make sense
#
GWG
Okay. I am still using aaronpk's authorization Endpoint and o
#
GWG
would like to get off his stuff and into an internal one.
#
GWG
Clear?
#
GWG
Imagine logging into Quill with the WordPress login page.
#
[colinwalker]
So ultimately we could have our own site acting and token and auth server?
#
[miklb]
not really. If you still won’t be able to login to your own site with IndieAuth with what you are building, then I’m not sure what is new.
#
GWG
miklb, why do you want log into your own site with Indieauth? You have a login page already. What would be different?
#
[miklb]
I do understand that is the direction you are moving.
#
GWG
colinwalker, I have the endpoint. It will be ready after a few more tweaks.
#
GWG
The token one at least
#
[miklb]
You don’t login to Quill or the wiki with a username/password, you use Twitter/GitHub or similar. I thought the idea was to be able to login to your own site in the same fashion. Sounds like I’m off base. Which is good to clarify.
#
GWG
milkb, the Indieauth plugin will still optionally do that if you want
#
GWG
It does it now using Indieauth
#
GWG
But Indieauth.com uses relmeauth to login via GitHub or Twitter.
#
GWG
That isn't part of Indieauth, that is just how Indieauth
#
GWG
.com does it
#
[colinwalker]
I always use email - self contained
#
[miklb]
I currently have 2FA/one time password configured on my WP site along with standard WP login. I’m just trying to understand what is being built. But I have plenty of projects I’m working on, so I’m excited to sit back and wait for the finished project.
#
GWG
miklb, what if you could use whatever you use to log into your WordPress installation to log into Quill? Or any other Micropub client
#
GWG
Think of it that way
#
[miklb]
sure, that makes sense
#
GWG
That's it.
#
GWG
Even if I don't get to that, right now, with the token endpoint, the power to revoke and permission control entry

aaronpk: That hasn't happened yet
#
GWG
But I appreciate the optimism
#
[miklb]
but it’s a great description of what your goal is. Until then, I was genuinely confused.
#
GWG
[miklb]: I thought I said that earlier.
#
GWG
But I have a head cold, maybe it didn't come out as well.
#
[miklb]
if you had, it didn’t register
#
[miklb]
didn’t register with me. But my head is in a different place lately.

Not that I know of

Busy with work, but busy here as well

GWG
How long has it been?

prtksxna
GWG: That's nice :) How was the Baltimore event?
#
GWG
Fun. I got to monopolize aaronpk for a while

aaronpk
happy to help!

I am in SF for a week but sadly no Indieweb things happening right now :(
#
GWG
aaronpk, should I wait till another IWC for the authorization Endpoint?
#
GWG
Isn't there a HWC this week?
#
aaronpk
haha! maybe we can do a virtual HWC workshop
#
Loqi
aaronpk: lol
#
GWG
aaronpk, I haven't even started it. I wanted at least pfefferle to look at the token endpoint first.
#
aaronpk
want to wait for me to post my "building an authorization endpoint in 30 minutes" video?
#
GWG
But I have some other stuff, like the user to url mapping I want to improve.
