GWG [miklb]: What do you think? Should I do anything with Pingbacks and Trackbacks or is it a waste of time?
#
[miklb] Unless it’s a personal itch, I’d say no.
#
[miklb] I went spelunking last night on that indieauth issue, and only thing relevant I could find was “requires WP_Rewrite, which means it can’t be called before the ‘init’ hook.”
#
[miklb] https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/27117#comment:1
#
[miklb] well, that and this https://github.com/szepeviktor/w3-total-cache-fixed/pull/446#issue-112089635
#
GWG [miklb]: Do you use Jetpack?
#
[miklb] I do not
#
GWG I think it may be interfering
#
GWG Because that resolved the issue for one person
#
GWG So, another plugin is causing an unexpected interaction
#
GWG What are you using?
#
[miklb] I started working on a blog post of all my plugins, but it’s a few. I can’t imagine my caching would affect micropub, but I’ll look at my rules closer
#
GWG I just reproduced it on another site
#
[miklb] progress
[cleverdevil] and [grantcodes] joined the channel
#
GWG I think I can fix it
#
GWG It is rest_url
#
GWG It is being called to find the configuration
#
[miklb] in get_indieauth_token_endpoint()
#
[miklb] ?
#
GWG [miklb]: Correct
#
[miklb] at least I was in the right time zone last night 😂
#
[miklb] but that was just from reading the stack trace
#
GWG [miklb]: Up for trying something?
#
[miklb] yep. I haven’t started upgrading debian yet.
#
GWG I just pushed a check to hooks that looks to see if wp_rewrite isn't set and tries to set it.
#
GWG Hooks the branch
#
GWG I just want to see if that solves the problem
#
GWG If not, I can always cache the rest url
#
[miklb] I’m seeing this now in Quill `{"error":"insufficient_scope","error_description":"scope insufficient to create posts"}`
#
[miklb] I logged out and back in with wp-indieauth
#
[miklb] then I get these errors PHP Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /micropub/micropub.php on line 266
#
[miklb] PHP Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /micropub/micropub.php on line 269
#
[miklb]
#
[miklb] but I don’t get the same error as before
#
GWG That is promising
#
GWG There is something off.
#
GWG I found jgmac1106's problem on this site
#
[miklb] which was?
#
GWG I found it
#
GWG Not fixed it
#
GWG It isn't finding the auth header
#
GWG So, it isn't a WordPress problem. It seems to be an nginx problem
#
[miklb] are there any nginx.conf recommendations for Oath2/micropub/Indieauth
#
GWG I'm going to be reading up on that
#
[miklb] should that hooks branch work then? or the stable release
#
GWG [miklb]: Well, the odd thing is this...my site and this other site, like him, are on the same server. But my site has a subdomain, the other is a www
#
GWG Something in Nginx redirect maybe?
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
[miklb] I serve https and redirect all www traffic to no-www. I do have subdomains and just dawned on me I’m multi-site which is a new wrinkle
#
GWG I think it is the redirect losing the headers
#
[miklb] the endpoint looks right in the settings screen https://miklb.com/wp-json/indieauth/1.0/auth
#
GWG Yes
#
GWG The problem I fixed with the hooks branch was it not being able to generate that because rest_url was null
#
[miklb] hmm. I thought I had checked that and it looked right with origin/master
#
GWG https://github.com/WP-API/WP-API/issues/2512
#
Loqi [mnelson4] #2512 All authentication methods use "Authorization" header, which is unreliable
#
GWG fastcgi_param HTTP_AUTHORIZATION $http_authorization; Maybe?
#
[miklb] should I test that against the origin/master or hooks branch? Hooks branch same micropub errors and 403 in Quill
#
[miklb] origin/master still gives the error with using_index_permalinks
#
[miklb] do I need `underscores_in_headers on`
#
[miklb] didn’t make a difference. I’ve tried both origin/master and hooks with adding the fastcgi_param to fastcgi.conf and adding underscores_in_headers on to my site nginx conf file
#
[miklb] But I’ll keep researching also
#
GWG I asked bear
#
[miklb] hmm`proxy_set_header X-Auth-Request-Redirect $request_uri;`
#
GWG ?
#
[miklb] I’m looking at some nginx conf examples for oath2_proxy and that stood out
[cleverdevil] and [grantcodes] joined the channel
#
aaronpk GWG: has the local auth code verification helped at all?
#
GWG Not by anyone reporting in
#
GWG And it broke pfefferle's use case
#
GWG I am experimenting based on the miklb issue
