[jgmac1106] [chrisaldrich] I didn't even know that page existed. Awesome resource

[chrisaldrich] Feel free to add to it.
# [jgmac1106] Will do. Need to figure out where beginner page will end up when I finish.
# [jgmac1106] Chris Lott! @Chris_Lott Good to see you here. The hcard should work if you use the IndieWeb plugin, update your WP profile, and then add the hcard widget.
# [jgmac1106] You can also do it in paragraph form, I have both examples on my site. You can see the widget on my homepage and a paragraph style hcard on my about me page
# [jgmac1106] Also if using Slack don't use threads. Folks who connect through IRC can't see it
# [jgmac1106] I eventually had to abandon my theme. It's too hard to make it work. I ended up using a static homepage and a page builder on top of an IndieWeb theme to get the look I wanted
# [jgmac1106] Ohh I see on Twitter @sknebel already helped you @Chris_Lott

# 
[Chris_Lott] Thanks for the insight ... still very helpful as I try to grok all of this and re-envision my site!
# [jgmac1106] I just sent you some tweets as well, check out the WordPress guide. Gonna use #IndieWeb in my classes so trying to get it ready for prime time
# [jgmac1106] But yeah usually you need to abandon your theme which leaves two choices. Use one of four themes or throw a new instance on a subdomain and use WP, micro.blog, or Known on it
# [jgmac1106] I know my students are gonna want all the fancy splash images, full width pages, and featured images so I am recommending either 2016-indieweb or Independent Publisher (the other two don't use static homepages) with a page builder so they still maintain visual control
# [jgmac1106] If you are WordPress guru and can add microformats2 to your theme we would love more themes
# [Chris_Lott] I'm OK with the sempress theme for my own site, though I do have a micro.blog site already too. Still feeling my way around how this all fits together.
# [jgmac1106] ZenPress does not work with static homepage, need to check my notes, I could be wrong... Only up to Independent Press in testing
# [Chris_Lott] I've done some theme hacking, so once I have a better handle on things I could look at adapting my former theme.
# [jgmac1106] It was either SemPress or ZenPress @gwg but if memory serves me it is both
# [jgmac1106] Chris Lott++
# [jgmac1106] I took one of Alan's themes and got almost there, but it's his Dimensions which I turned into one big h-card
# [jgmac1106] Chris_Lott++
# [jgmac1106] In terms of the UX study in full disclosure will try to spin off into two publications...need to justify all my Open Source time to the Dean somehow
# [jgmac1106] My Digital and Teaching Too class will run my students through setting up IndieWeb WordPress but our third summer session is stupid short so I am worried.
# [jgmac1106] Plus you know how it goes, when you teach and do instructional design at same time both fail
# [Chris_Lott] Yeah...I am thinking about bringing IndieWeb into my digicit class next summer. Since all the students already have, or obtain as part of the class, domains and WP sites.
# [jgmac1106] Add in the IndieWeb stuff and I know I am :🔫: ::foot::
# [Chris_Lott] How short is your third summer session? Mine is a 12-week term and feels too short to get all the tech done and actually delve into the content.
# [jgmac1106] I guess ::foot:: :🔫:
# [jgmac1106] Give up
# [jgmac1106] 7/30 to 8/19 I am screwed. Teaching class in open, but basically it's build your site remix a class template in Glitch
# [Chris_Lott] Wow, that is really short!
# [jgmac1106] Moronic. Trying to squeeze every tuition dollar out of kids
# [jgmac1106] Convinced my chair and Dean to let me combine two sessions next year.
# [jgmac1106] Didn't realize you were at #DoOO school, assigning a @ReClaim account

# [matpacker] Been working through the troubleshooting, here's where I'm at now - https://gist.github.com/matpacker/e73a6c3cf7eb24a3b84649a9f327f064#file-gistfile1-txt
# [Chris_Lott] We aren't a DoOO school, but we have built-in domains and using Reclaim into the grad program I teach for.
# [jgmac1106] Same approach. I am hoping to finalize an IndieWebCamp in NYC next week. @CathieLeBlanc and @gwg helping to organize. Gonna have a ton of #DoOO sessions. A lot of #DoOO administrators want to attend or join remotely to be ready by next year
# [jgmac1106] It will be in late September
[eddie] joined the channel
# [jgmac1106] It is a barcamp style but I am sure the folks in our circles will propose #DoOO sessions
# [jgmac1106] Maha Bali is gonna keynote
# [jgmac1106] But only 15-20 minutes, really to strategize around increasing remote participation with underrepresented peoples
# [Chris_Lott] Sounds great. I'd love to be there, but unlikely given time and that I'm as far away as you can get and still be in the US 🙂
# [matpacker] [dougbeal] handy if you're using your website as a commonplace also
# [jgmac1106] [dougbeal] thank you, thank you. Now I do not need a ton of Wikimedia instances for wikispaces
# [jgmac1106] [Chris_Lott] IndieWeb gets remote right. Anyone not there is still there
# [jgmac1106] I will probably just throw up the mediawiki instances as I read up, but wouldn't mind tracking my edits
# [matpacker] [chrisaldrich] worked through the troubleshooting, there's not a lot there..anyway, here's what I've ended up with - https://gist.github.com/matpacker/e73a6c3cf7eb24a3b84649a9f327f064
# [matpacker] I've taken a look at the lines that are producing the errors in micropub.php but I can't figure out what's wrong.
