[unoabraham] My Webmentions seem to be broken. All I'm getting is a big picture.
# [unoabraham] Like here - https://martymcgui.re/2018/05/06/134816/.
# [unoabraham] Or is that theme dependent and entirely based on the website design/comments section of Marty's website?
# 
gRegorLove [unoabraham], I'm not seeing h-entry markup on your post here: https://abraham.uno/1610/1610/
# gRegorLove schmarty's site could also probably handle this better, falling back to "Rajiv Abraham mentioned this"
# gRegorLove Looks like his site is parsing the photo from your h-card as the content of your mention
# gRegorLove I mentioned it to schmarty in #indieweb-dev

[jgmac1106] [unoabraham] I thought you removed some plug-ins like microformats and semantic linkbacks, could that be issue?

# [unoabraham] [gregorlove] - I am not using a micro-formats plug-in, only using the IndieWeb and the IndieAuth plug-ins.
# [unoabraham] The micro-formats plug-in breaks my metadata and permanent links, probably doesn't play nice with my child theme.
# [unoabraham] Apart from the IndieWeb/IndieAuth plug-ins, I'm only using the Webmention plug-in.

# [unoabraham] [jgmac1106] Going to troubleshoot. I will setup a couple of test sites and ping away.
# [unoabraham] At this point, I cannot say with certainty what is causing the issues.
# [jgmac1106] [unoabraham] the IndieWeb plug-in is just an installer of all the plug-ins and connects your h-card to your profile. Not having microformats means no h-entry
# [jgmac1106] I have seen this on schmarty's blog before when people don't have h-entry in a post. The gravatar just gets set to 100% width. Haven't seen what you are talking about but I bet you got a really big picture
# [unoabraham] [jgmac1106] Okay, so that means I need microformats working. Will install the plug-in for now.
# [unoabraham] Will need to have a look about having micro-formats added to the child theme.
# [unoabraham] I understand the plug-in itself is very limited, a theme with microformats support is the way to go.
# [jgmac1106] having a child theme isn't the problem, it means your OG theme might conflict with microformats. I think the issue arises becauase you syndicate through JetPack which uses different metadata
# [jgmac1106] yes, there are two themes that have the official blessing, but most now play well with microformats and webmentions. I use Hueman for example and it works (mostish)
# [jgmac1106] [unoabraham] your current theme is so close to design to the semantic themes folks recommend I think it would be an easy switch for you
# [unoabraham] Ok, will take a look.

# [jgmac1106] @gwg once you get close and the new plug ins are done ping me and I will record the video so they can go live same time as plug in

[chrisaldrich] [pfefferle] I'll take a shot at the Webmention/Semantic Linkbacks language
# [chrisaldrich] The Webmention plugin primarily handles sending/receiving notifications of mentions from other websites, so the format of the comments can look odd on one's site. We highly recommend also installing and activating the Semantic Linkbacks Plugin which has better parsing and display capabilities to allow richer looking comments as well as options for displaying many reply types as facepiles for improved user interface.
# [chrisaldrich] If you want to use it, there's a reasonable screenshot (CCO) of the facepile portion at https://indieweb.org/Webmention#Chris_Aldrich_with_boffosocko.com
# [chrisaldrich] Which one?
# [chrisaldrich] Might be nice to have the ability to edit the webmention type within the full comment editor interface? I know there are some displayed Webmention Data there (uneditable, and probably rightly so).
# [chrisaldrich] Otherwise, nothing that I haven't seen mentioned before or in the queue comes immediately to mind.
# [chrisaldrich] Back in a bit, but I'll be checking in occasionally....
