[mrkrndvs]
[jgmac1106] i have never actually used a Micropub client, but am happy to try and help.
#
[mrkrndvs]
It worked when I first used it, which was before GWG big change. I could be wrong. Just a thought.
[jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106]
Yes, @mrkndvs and you use ReClaimHosting correct?
#
[jgmac1106]
I was able to edit my .htaccess file correctly but still can't get micropub to work @gwg is working on it.
#
[jgmac1106]
You can go back and read the dev channel logs . Most of the discussion happening there
#
[jgmac1106]
[mrkrndvs] me too, but stranger it still works on my Known instances
[mrkrndvs] joined the channel
#
[mrkrndvs]
Yep, I'm with Reclaim. Definitely strange. Personally, happy using bookmarklets etc
#
[jgmac1106]
I am going to edit my bookmarlet plug-in for post kinds this weekend
#
[jgmac1106]
I need micropub for Twitter chats, though I have to look at editing the way bridgy replies to Tweets
#
sknebel
[jgmac1106]: the Bridgy plugin afaik does not decide how the posts are displayed, so that's the wrong thing to look at
#
[jgmac1106]
@sknebel okay, thanks for the heads up.
#
sknebel
your reply context is in the (e-)content of your posts, it shouldn't be there
#
[jgmac1106]
okay I will look at the post templates, yeah I was peaking at Bridgy as you you typed
#
[jgmac1106]
what is purpose of e-content I though <article> was to denote the start and stop of all content
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "purpose of e-content I though <article> was to denote the start and stop of all content" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "purpose of e-content I though <article> was to denote the start and stop of all content is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[jgmac1106]
it seems Independent and SemPress wrap everything in entry-title p-name entry-content e-content
#
[jgmac1106]
nevermind I asked [aaronpk] a similar question about u-photo answer probably the same
#
sknebel
also, article typically wraps the entire article
#
sknebel
not just the main text content
#
[jgmac1106]
I am looking into the custom sempress comments just to figure out where the open brackets are coming from
#
[jgmac1106]
..but Saturday morning hack hour over, back to building my syllabus. Baseball just canceled...I might get a lot of time to play today

GWG
Big change?
#
[jgmac1106]
in weather, no, in the comment template...not sure
#
[jgmac1106]
@gwg I think if the markup went " p-name p-summary comment-content e-content" it would work but isn't that semanticllyincorrect?
#
[jgmac1106]
currently it is "comment-content e-content p-summary p-name "
#
sknebel
that's just a different order?
#
[jgmac1106]
yeah, there was a lot of discussion on gihub about emportance of including e-content I did not want to delete it
#
sknebel
I don't think anything cares about the order of classes
#
[jgmac1106]
"The "logical Entry Content" of an Entry is the concatenation, in order of appearance, of all the Entry Contents within the Entry"
#
[jgmac1106]
oops that microformats1 I hate when I do that
#
[jgmac1106]
@sknebel I thought you were saying the e-content class is what is tripping up my comments on my blog and twitter replies, just trying to fix things with minimal knowledge and a lot of, "change this and see what happens, change it back cuz you probably broke something"
#
sknebel
the problem is that you put the tweet you reply to inside the e-content. it should be outside, only what you've written should be in e-content
#
[jgmac1106]
okay so @gwg I am putting my tweet url in the response properties box, I need to figure out which function (I think SemPress comments) is embedding it inside e-content cc [pfefferle]
#
[jgmac1106]
and kudos to whomever used the word "concatenation," a two dollar word if I ever heard one
#
jeremycherfas
I think you mean a twodollarword
#
GWG
It isn't. SemPress doesn't support Post Kinds natively so when Post Kinds adds it in, it ends up inside the e-content block
#
[jgmac1106]
so @gwg should I look at the Post-Kind plug in to switch the order?
#
GWG
The theme would need to support the plugin natively if you want the properties outside of e-content
#
[jgmac1106]
whow twodollarword.com isn't registered. Maybe use that for this https://github.com/jgmac1106/vocabcards

.....crap which means I need to switch to Independent and start all over again. Do plugin changes live inside or outside child themes

#
GWG
[jgmac1106]: pfefferle's newer theme does support it to some degree
#
GWG
ZenPress
#
GWG
Our community really lacks theme developers
#
[jgmac1106]
what about plugin edits? Do I lose those when I update my theme
#
[jgmac1106]
yeah maybe somethign to brainstorm by looking at a: open GPL thehems, b: most popular, c: active community and see if there is any interest in bringing a theme compliant.......or we wait until Gutenberg and see how much changes occur
#
GWG
I also have a theme that supports Post Kinds that I use on my site
#
GWG
But, either way, we could use more participation

#
[jgmac1106]
yeah you use independent correct? I remember why i can't use ZenPress it doesn't support static homepage
#
GWG
If you want to try my fork of the WordPress 2016 theme
#
GWG
No, I use that
#
[jgmac1106]
and you just forked twenty sixteen?
#
[jgmac1106]
I can give it a try
#

2016 was the last stock theme I liked for a personal site
#
GWG
2017 was more business
#
GWG
I should make some more tweaks. I do back port a lot of improvements
#
Loqi
I agree
#
[jgmac1106]
I can help for example I know I am goign to have to figure out how to move a header image above the main menu
#
GWG
Feedback on any of my projects is great
#
GWG
Open an issue on the repository, that list is where I go when I am working on something
#
GWG
Be back later
#
[jgmac1106]
I already used my play time today but I will. Do you prefer I just leave comments or fork and file PRs?
#
[jgmac1106]
mean leave issues

Thanks for all of the guidance on the newsletter and possible use of markdown. I wrote (for the first time ever) some content in markdown using StackEdit. Copy/paste to WordPress was simple. Copy/paste to mailchimp...not so much. But, when finished, I was relatively happy with the product. I need to continue to refine/tweak my template in StackEdit, and figure out the best way to copy/paste to MailChimp....and connect the URL for the we

for the MailChimp sent emails.
