GWG miklb, still trying to figure out POSSE
#
[miklb] ?
#
[miklb] oh, the plugin changes?
#
GWG Yes, it is hard to build something abstract

#
GWG I need to build flexibly

#
GWG miklb, can I pick your brain?
#
[miklb] sure
#
GWG miklb, what does a POSSE ui in the post editor look like beyond the checkboxes?
#
[miklb] I’m not sure there is anything else. Micropub editors don’t either.
#
[miklb] don’t either, meaning, that’s all they do, look for targets and provide a way to select where to syndicate to.
#
GWG miklb, should I log the time of post?
#
[miklb] doesn’t WordPress already do that?
#
GWG The time the POSSE happened separate from post time?
#
[miklb] does that get stored as an update timestamp by WordPress?
#
[miklb] I’m not sure I understand a scenario where WordPress would be syndicating a note for you not when you publish or send as a micropub syndictate-to which has it’s own timestamp I assume.
#
GWG Yes, but should I store whether I have POSSEd or not?
#
GWG Even as a boolean
#
[miklb] that is deep in the weeds for me. I don’t really have an opinion. I’m always for more data but not to the extent that it slows down development or progress.
#
GWG Well, the initial design will likely be no settings to POSSE by default.
#
[miklb] so that would be backing out a feature that is in bridgy-publish now?
#
GWG Well, it needs a redesign
#
[miklb] I really liked that I was able to schedule a note for morning and have it also automatically publish to Twitter
#
GWG I intend to build the feature
#
GWG I just am not sure if I should release something
#
GWG Or wait till I have everything
#
GWG I am thinking of releasing Indienews first
#
GWG Use it to improve the system before writing the Bridgy provider
#
[miklb] I see what you mean now. Sure, that makes sense.
#
[miklb] A bridgy-provider would be a new separate plugin
#
GWG No, just another feature of the current plugin, but not the next version
#
GWG I still want to merge in the plugin someday
#
[miklb] I guess I thought you wanted the new Syndicate plugin to have no bridgy functionality at all, just a place to hook into the post editor and post_create. Then bridgy syndication would be a new separate plugin with no registration.
#
GWG But I am just thinking of pushing off that.
#
GWG I am redesigning the whole way that the POSSE is triggered
#
[miklb] I look forward to seeing that code
#
GWG I have some of it posted
#
GWG The syns branch
#
GWG It creates a class to implement a provider
#
[miklb] I’ll try to check it out during IWS
#
GWG Each Bridgy service would have to be its own provider.
#
[miklb] that makes sense
#
GWG So, it requires a lot of flexibility
#
GWG But I basically have a hook triggered on the checkboxes that matches the hook triggered by the Micropub plugin
#
GWG So, I can just hook it into both.

#
[miklb] which begs the question, why wouldn’t that just be part of the micropub plugin
#
[miklb] but that’s a discussion for another day. I’ve a long day tomorrow.
#
GWG Okay

[chrisaldrich] [jgmac1106] did you ever fill the other half of your room? I can kill my reservation before I fly this afternoon if you want to split and have the company (or anyone else who my want company, for that matter.)
#
[jgmac1106] I got a single but can ask if I can move to a double. The room is paid for so i can save you money. Let me know and I will call my hotel
#
[chrisaldrich] Im game if it's not trouble for you. We could do some after hours hotel track edu sessions. Are you doing the University place like others were?
#
[chrisaldrich] I'm also more than happy to chip in... Just let me know.

#
[jgmac1106] No, I am at hotel DeLuxe, I will call in a few minutes and let you know if they will let me move. I may have to leaver /leades and go check out
#
[jgmac1106] I will call in ten minutes? Can you cancel your reservation day off and not get charged?

#
[chrisaldrich] For this one, yes I can fortunately.
