SNAP is heavy and slow, going to try and folllow snarfed’s instructions and add LinkedIn to Bridgy
#
jgmac1106_
but will say SNAP or JetPack which uses wp.me are the two most popular syndication tools in the community. Very few people use Bridgy Publish….atleast that hang here…plenty in wild I am sure

I have plans. I need a year of time.

Manilla is calling

I wasn’t gonna touch the plugin. Adding LinkedIn to Bridgy is first step. For me my audience is on Twitter but the people who write the checks are on LinkedIn. Need to reach both

aaronpk, I have been thinking about the Unauthorized issue some people have with the Indieauth plugin
#
GWG
The error message actually comes from Micropub

jackjamieson, how goes the work?
#
jackjamieson
Quite good, actually!
#
jackjamieson
BTW I saw your post from yesterday that the indieauth unauthorized error is coming from micropub
#
GWG
Glad to hear
#
GWG
It is, but it is because it isn't getting a user id from the IndieAuth plugin
#
jackjamieson
Any leads on a solution? Since I'm using the Micropub's auth code I have the same issue
#
jackjamieson
Ah, that's exactly the issue I was having then. I thought I was missing something - didn't realize it was the same issue
#
GWG
snarfed coded it to let the post through if it didn't find a user id in the built-in code in Micropub, but in the Indieauth version, I didn't because I think that is a security issue
#
GWG
So, I need to improve the URL to user ID matching
#
jackjamieson
Huh, I see
#
jackjamieson
I'd found that get_current_user_id() in the auth section was always returning zero
#
jackjamieson
same issue?
#
GWG
Exactly
#
GWG
I'm rewriting that
#
GWG
Look at get user by identifier in the function file
#
jackjamieson
Which function file?
#
jackjamieson
Oh, I see. in the indieauth plugin
#
GWG
In the Micropub plugin, it is user_url
#
GWG
I will be rewriting both
#
jackjamieson
That's great!
#
jackjamieson
I'll copy over the micropub changes to Yarns
#
jackjamieson
Let me know if I can help with testing etc.

gwg do you know why I am getting this error all of the sudden? Bridgy Error: Publish is not enabled for your account. Try signing up!
#
jgmac1106_
I click on the sign up link and it just brings me to my homepage
#
jgmac1106_
this is so weird, now in the bridgy settings it is saying I have not conencted the account and then when I go to try and connect it I get this werd message for a different domain: Upstream server request failed: (, DeadlineExceededError('Deadline exceeded while waiting for HTTP response from URL: https://indieweb.jgregorymcverry.com/',))
#
jgmac1106_
its because I saisd A: I was reaching a happy place and thought stasis would be possible, and B:) i sang the Bridgy praise. I think I somehow broke it this morning when trying to connect https://bookmarks.jgregorymcverry.com to Bridgy for some unknown reason, saw a box not acitvated and couldnt have that
#
jgmac1106_
just had to find my user page on bridgy and reactivate Twitter, no idea how id picked up the rando subdomain
