[dougbeal] So wordpress doesn’t like .HEIC files?

[jgmac1106] @gwg add yourself to the WordPress IndieWebRing when you get a chance need somebody to try it
# [dougbeal] Where would I put the link for a manual webmention for a post?
# [jgmac1106] It goes under native comment field
# [dougbeal] Checkin photos from OwnYourSwarm don’t appear, what plugin would be responsible for that?
# [dougbeal] Where would I file the bug?

# [dougbeal] @GWG I haven’t been able to find a non-instagram checking that has pictures…
# [dougbeal] Also looks like no swarm posts from today for [anomalily] , and at least one should have a picture
# [dougbeal] @GWG What do you think would be the best way to have micro.blog posts? I’m going to set up u.dougbeal.com to something like dougbeal.com/micro or dougbeal.com/kind/micro
# [dougbeal] Yeah, just spitballing. Is this a place to use categories?

# 
[chrisaldrich] I use the note kind too for that Doug
# [dougbeal] do notes have titles?
# [dougbeal] micro.blog hates titles 😉
# [chrisaldrich] Generally they don't,but some do use them. If you do and syndicate to micro.blog it'll pick up the title instead of the note.
# [chrisaldrich] You could also use a number for a title or a datetime and mb will ignore it and show the note iirc
# [dougbeal] would using a mu µ as a category cause problems?
# [chrisaldrich] I suspect that wp would allow it, never tried... mb shouldn't care.
# [chrisaldrich] [dougbeal] I bookmarked this resource a while back that has a lot of good material for Micro.blog with respect to WordPress: https://boffosocko.com/2018/05/23/micro-wiki-resources-for-micro-blog-eli-mellen/

# [jgmac1106] That was when I was using two platforms.
# [jgmac1106] Doug I took to approaches to microblogging a subdomain quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com
# [jgmac1106] Now I set up an archive view post/kind/reply, note, follow, like
# [jgmac1106] I named it Tweet but could name it anything

# [dougbeal] [jgmac1106] ended up diverted by how many places that limit upload sizes 🙄. Hopefully will implement soon

dougbeal|mb1 woo, omnibear is working!
# dougbeal|mb1 GWG: I'm getting Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in /var/www/html/wp-includes/post-template.php on line 284 in the In Reponse To column when viewing comments. Seem to be getting little comment icon with numbers fine.
# [dougbeal] Doesn’t like $pages
# [dougbeal] let me check server logs
# [dougbeal] nothing looks interesin tg
# [dougbeal] if ( $page > count( $pages ) ) // if the requested page doesn’t exist
# [dougbeal] $page = count( $pages ); // give them the highest numbered page that DOES exist
# [dougbeal] Say I have a reply post to a wordpress hosts blog that isn’t indieweb aware, and want to add an in-reply-to to the twitter post of said wordpress blog. Whats the best way/place to add the in-reply-to link?
# [dougbeal] What would the title of the box be? I see Custom Fields
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
# [chrisaldrich] [dougbeal] In those cases I do an in-reply-to for the original content on the website (even if they don't support webmention yet) and then syndicate my reply to their original on twitter so they'll get the notification there as well. I'll also manually syndicate my reply to the comment box of the original site and use the permalink of my reply for the field "your website".
# [chrisaldrich] Somehow I'm reminded of the old Visa /tagline, except we could bend it a bit. IndieWeb POSSE: "It's everywhere you want to syndicate."
# [dougbeal] Bri.gy Could not find a tweet to reply to. Does https://dougbeal.com/2018/06/30/1506/ look alright? I see a syndication link in the footer
# [dougbeal] Hurm, I feel like I’m not understanding this. I added <a class=“u-in-reply-to” href=“https://twitter.com/MakeDoPod/status/1012051712306278401“></a> to the post, and then it worked with bridgy

# [dougbeal] Oh, thats why its so hard?
# [dougbeal] I forget what I started with, might have been omnibear
