#
jgmac1106 [mrkrndvs] I will find mine but someone like [wiobyrne] with 1,000 subscribers would need to have a different email solution anyways
#
jgmac1106 hit rate limits in WordPress so quick
#
jgmac1106 so a paid newsletter plug in or a GSuite and gMail smtp either way $10 a month
#
jgmac1106 [gwg] I think that would be an interesting plug in for some time way far away Subscription/newsletter. I wonder [aaropnpk] if indieauth could be used to be added or removed from a newsletter list and then [gwg] a collection ets mailed out as a weekly digest. People would still need an email solution
#
jgmac1106 [mrkrndvs] I use Subcriber2 I can’t chose a specific post-kind or format for my weekly digest

[mrkrndvs] [jgmac1106] I've only got around 150+ subscribers. Should I be looking at a paid model?

#
jgmac1106 [mrkrndvs] You can always check you mail logs but you shoudl be okay
#
jgmac1106 mornign [wiobyrne] You want to record an indiewweb-wordpress user story?
[kevinmarks] and [wiobyrne] joined the channel
#
[wiobyrne] What's that? This morning is tough as Briddy decided she'd celebrate Mother's Day by keeping us all up all night. :(
#
[wiobyrne] Experimenting with the following for now: https://www.thenewsletterplugin.com/, https://wordpress.org/plugins/sola-newsletters/, https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailpoet/
#
[wiobyrne] Of the three, MailPoet seems to have the nicest forms/templates. Still digging in.
#
jgmac1106 [wiobyrne] doesn’t have to be be today. Just doing user research

#
[jgmac1106] I am looking from a recent post from someone on all the indieweb plug-ins they use. I thought I bookmarked but I must not have.
#
jgmac1106 could probably search archive by plug in name. This is one that isn’t an indieweb plug in. It excludes posts
#
GWG jgmac1106: All plugins have potential to be Indieweb helpful, even if they weren't designed with a community philosophy in mind.

#
Loqi gwg has 61 karma in this channel (349 overall)
#
GWG When do I get to cash this karma in for a prize?
#
aaronpk The problem is there is an infinite supply of karma in the karma ecosystem. I'd need to change it to be a closed system in order to be able to cash it out
#
aaronpk I have thought about making it work where you are giving one of your karma to the other person
#
GWG aaronpk, I was talking about those badges people keep mentioning
#
jgmac1106 Nice [gwg] and let me know when the ICO for KarmaCoin launches
#
jgmac1106 Found it: https://ron.theguests.us/2018/05/02/my-indieweb-ish-wordpress-setup/
#
jgmac1106 It was Ultimate Category Excluder
#
tantek__ nudges the karma conversation in the direction of #indieweb-meta

#
jgmac1106 So looking at Ultimate Category Excluder I can’t exclude post-kinds but if I make a new category and make that the default category for all new posts and exclude it and then make a new category called “featured” and do NOT exclude it. I can get just my featured articles to post
#
jgmac1106 Then I can add the [chrisaldrich] post-kind feed menu
[schmarty] joined the channel
#
jgmac1106 Actually just going to exclude uncategorized
#
GWG I think I might build what you are looking for
[schmarty] and [jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] @gwg I saw how easy it would be to widget the menu and I think I may just give in and turn off featured images all together or switch themes

GWG [miklb]: What are you up to?
#
[miklb] personally, I’ve been squaring away employment. Basically I’m joining a startup where my food will be the product. IndieWeb wise, not too much, I’ve been tinkering with re-doing the timeline on my homepage. Not being able to use micropub has slowed me down a bit.
#
[miklb] I don’t know if I’ve shared that my current theme is a public repo https://github.com/miklb/independence fwiw
#
Loqi [miklb] independence: Custom WordPress theme currently on miklb.com
#
GWG [miklb]: I should be asking you for recipes.
#
[miklb] I would be glad to share. This biz will be for retail & subscription delivery of healthy/diet ready-made meals.
#
GWG I'll remember the next time I'm looking for a recipe
#
GWG I'm trying to figure out a presentation issue on Post Kinds
#
GWG What should I do in the feed?
#
[miklb] what’s going on with the feed?
#
GWG Well, with all the additions I make to content, the feed sometimes looks off
