[jgmac1106] [johnjohnston] check with [pfefferle] and the open issues with SemPress plus you have the actual skill to help out once you poke around the templates. I keep testing accoutns aof all three themes if you want to compare
#
[jgmac1106] If you do improve the templates for better Twitter syndication file a PR

[johnjohnston] Skills I wish i had. I am trying to understand how to control the content of the tweet sent to twitter via bridgy when I reply to a tweet. As the tweet I reply to is included (by post_kinds?) in the tweet, it can be the text that appear on twitter via bridgy, with my actual reply truncated. I’d like to figure out how to keep the link, quote etc. on my post but just send the content I’ve added as a reply to twitter.

#
[jgmac1106] [johnjohnston] as an FYI avoid threads in Slack they don't work well for IRC users. Based on the plugin you have written you can probably figure it out
#
[jgmac1106] @gwg as well migjt be able to explain but the difference is in each theme
#
[jgmac1106] When I reply to a tweet I make sure to get the link from the Tweet. I have to go back thro3notes but I think it is the quote post kind POSSEd to Twitter
#
[jgmac1106] [johnjohnston] after the trouble I am having and after almost three months of trying to get all the WordPress pieces working I think it's time to walk away. I can't get webmentions working, and my blog is so fundamentally broken in ways no one knows why or how to fix

GWG I feel very bad about that

#
[tantek] [jgmac1106] can you document the issues you're having in a list like on your user page on the wiki?
#
[tantek] Would be great to go through them one by one and use them as case studies for improving both our install and troubleshooting documentation.
#
[tantek] Really helpful having you go through all this like a canary so we can document and improve things for folks that are less connected.
#
[tantek] I'm dedicated to help document all this, and I know GWG is interested in all the ways we can improve the WordPress IndieWeb experience
#
GWG tantek, I have the showstopping issues that block the new Micropub endpoint
#
[tantek] GWG that's definitely a good one to focus on fixing!
#
GWG I am stumped
#
GWG I don't know what is causing it
#
[tantek] Maybe ask snarfed if he has any ideas?
#
GWG I think it is http authorization headers
#
GWG Besides, the problem may actually be in the Indieauth plugin
#
GWG I need a WordPress person maybe
#
doubleloop micropub is working for me using the wordpress plugin
#
GWG Me too
#
GWG That's the problem
#
doubleloop Zegnat pointed me to this that I needed to do: https://wordpress.org/plugins/micropub/#faq-header
#
doubleloop Oh I see, it's something specific for [jgmac1106] ?
#
GWG To 3 people
#
GWG It probably is that for some
#
GWG And now I have Post Kinds issues I am also trying to fix because there was a strange interaction
#
GWG I split off some of my code so the new Microsub project could also use it
#
GWG I think my last push may have been too aggressive though
#
GWG May need to revert
#
doubleloop I don't know enough about how everything works, but happy to try and help, if there is any way that I can! (e.g. testing something, or just providing a data point for where it is working)
#
GWG Are you using the GitHub or WordPress.org version of Micropub?
#
doubleloop I'm using the plugins installed via Wordpress, not via the github repo
#
GWG The new Micropub version is still being tested in beta due auth issues for some
#
doubleloop Worth me trying the version from github?
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
GWG Yes. It completely redos everything to work inside the WordPress ecosystem rather than outside
#
GWG So, that may be why the auth works for some
#
GWG Same with Post Kinds, but it has a submodule
#
GWG The submodule thing is messing people up
#
GWG Maybe I should use composer and include the files
#
doubleloop the /vendor files?
#
GWG Yes. In the repo. So only I have to deal with dependencies, not the users.
#
GWG I tried submodules
#
GWG And I don't want to keep writing the same independent code in multiple plugins
#
GWG I need an easy way to develop a library inside WordPress and to incorporate it inside Post Kinds and possibly other plugins
#
GWG As well as its dependencies
#
doubleloop It's a pain github doesn't include submodules when you download the zip of the repo
#
doubleloop That's the recommended way to install a plugin from github, right? Get the zip and install via the WP interface?
#
doubleloop Or can I just clone it

doubleloop For micropub, on the master branch, it still is marked as 1.4.3 - it's the right one? (https://github.com/indieweb/wordpress-micropub/blob/master/micropub.php)
#
GWG It is 2.0
#
GWG But that will work
#
doubleloop I've updated from the zip of the master branch - endpoint is now: https://doubleloop.net/wp-json/micropub/1.0/endpoint (it was ?micropub=endpoint before)
#
GWG I should bump thr version
#
GWG And yes, it is
#
GWG That's the new code
#
doubleloop Tried a simple note from Quill and it has worked
#
GWG Share any comments https://github.com/indieweb/wordpress-micropub/issues/150
#
Loqi [dshanske] #150 Release Version 2.0 of Micropub plugin
#
GWG But it has a media endpoint and more
#
Loqi it is probable
#
doubleloop Was also able to post from micropublish, but I get configuration errors from Indigenous for Android (have added to the github issue)
