jackjamieson GWG: Still wrapping my head around things. I've been looking at the webmention plugin and it is clearer to understand than the micropub plugin I was referencing before
# jackjamieson Leaning about the WordPress REST API now
# jackjamieson *learning
# jackjamieson The REST API is definitely clearer to understand
# jackjamieson I've created an endpoint and can identify query parameters and respond accordingly, but I'm still having trouble handling authorization with IndieAuth
# jackjamieson That's what I've been trying, but get_current_user_id() returns 0 -- I'm trying to figure that out now
# jackjamieson When I try to log in with monocle, I see the indieauth screen and can click through to authenticate, but then I get an error screen from Monocle...
# jackjamieson 401
# jackjamieson "code":"indieauth.user_not_found","message":"User Not Found on this Site","data":{"status":"401","response":"http:\/\/jackjamieson.net\/YarnsTesting\/"
# jackjamieson I was thinking I'd try to chip away at this a bit more, and then post a longer excerpt of the code to GitHub to see if you (or anyone) can spot what I'm missing
# jackjamieson Awesome! I'm all ears
# jackjamieson Not yet, I'll try clearing cookies and logging into monocle again
# jackjamieson Hmmm. I can, however, authenticate to Quill using the micropub plugin and this site
# jackjamieson I'm testing this out on a temporary site, so I'll also give it a try on my main site since it's set up less haphazardly
# jackjamieson Weird, on my main server I get a 403 forbidden
# jackjamieson Oh wait, it's still trying to connect to aperture, I'll have to fix that

# jackjamieson Removed all references to aperture on my site but Monocle still tries to use it. Probably not the main fix anyway so I'll go back to my testing site
# jackjamieson How's that coming>?
# jackjamieson That's good! I'm looking forward to trying it. What's left to refine?

# jackjamieson Cool, well I'm looking forward to installing it once it's ready
# jackjamieson Ah, that makes sense

# jackjamieson Looking at /vouch now to see how it works
# jackjamieson Looks interesting, I haven't looked at vouch much before. The wiki page makes sense to me, but I'd probably have to see it in action to follow it properly
# jackjamieson Anyway, I've got to get going for now. Thanks for the suggestions with indieauth — I think I'm on the right track but still getting that 401. Since Micropub is working correctly it's probably something on my end.
# jackjamieson I've got a bit of time tomorrow so I'll see if I can make any more progress. And if I can't crack it I'll upload to github and see if you can spot anything I'm missing
# jackjamieson It is typically that specific sites *always* get a 401?

# jackjamieson Anyway, I've got to run. I'll let you know how it's going tomorrow. Thanks again for all your help. I think I've got a fairly clear idea of how to proceed once this auth stuff is resolved, so hopefully I can make steady progress from there
# jackjamieson Ah, then my issue is probably different, since micropub has no issues. That's good news since I just have to find what I'm doing wrong
# jackjamieson Cheers!

# [jgmac1106] Weird was I can do all of Indigenous, no OmniBear, half of quill
# [jgmac1106] Indigenous highest priority so I am cool
# 
[dougbeal] Is there a way to create a Kind template, specifically I would like to autofill some stuff if an Issue is selected
# [dougbeal] I mean, if I select Issue Kind, could strings be inserted into the post editor?

# [Vanessa] Little ironies: thought I might use Indiebookclub, but although it logs into my site and a token shows in WordPress, posts don't get there. Yet, I successfully managed to post using Quill for the first time, which has never worked before. I'm sure there is some logic somewhere...

# [jgmac1106] Congrats on creating chat name and wiki page

# [Vanessa] [jgmac1106] Ok, I'll try to figure that out later - heading out into the sunshine now. Not entirely sure what it is or what it's for, so I'll read up this afternoon. See if I can finish my Indieweb week on a roll!
# [jgmac1106] [Vanessa] it is nothing. A practice from the 90s and 00s. It is everything. A collection of all the IndieWeb WordPress blogs out there. Right now n=3. Enjoy 🌞
# [jgmac1106] I just dusted off an old plug in. You join that WordPress site, I add you to ring, you add table linking you to every other site.
# [Vanessa] [jgmac1106] I do vaguely remember the terminology. 😀

# [Vanessa] I add table? [jgmac1106]

# [jgmac1106] Yeah I put in a widget. Can go anywhere on homepage

# [Vanessa] But what does it have to contain?
# [jgmac1106] Just copy everything and style way you want. Off to beach but can help at our common time tomorrow
# [jgmac1106] Oops wrong post

# [dougbeal] [Vanessa] does the book shown up in your indiebookclub.biz profile ?
[Vanessa] joined the channel
# [Vanessa] [dougbeal] Yes, it does, just can't seem to get it to my site.
# [dougbeal] Maybe [gregorlove] can peek into the logs and see if there are any errors.
