[jgmac1106] [tonz] @gwg moving the conversation here, yeah that selection is done manually now in the respnse properties
#
GWG Which selection?
#
[jgmac1106] @gwg I am thinking of our quote poste, how I can change the summary that is parsed
#
GWG How do you want to change it?
#
[jgmac1106] [tonz] happy to help with learnignn the GitHub web UI...if you want to command line..I do my best to avoid that
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: The summary is parsed off of the mf2 summary, or for non-mf2 enabled sites, it tries off the OGP or meta descriptions.
#
GWG So, that is changeable, but to what?
#
GWG Oh, and Simple Location is back online. If I released it now, it would work again
#
GWG I have a few enhancements I want to add, and I should be able to push it. Then I get to decide what is next.
#
GWG So many ideas, so little time.

#
[pfefferle] Welcome [tonz]
#
[jgmac1106] I would release with critical bug fixes now, feature requests later
#
[jgmac1106] morning [pfefferle] any response about websub...I was booted from the slack channel I think, my account doesn't exist anymore
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: Booted? Why?
#
GWG Maybe I'll go back to Parse This after Simple Location and start porting over the Yarn RSS parsing code so it can handle feeds.
#
GWG I'd like to help get a feed reader running.
#
GWG I also have Syndication to fix.
#
GWG Maybe I need to update my list.
#
GWG Of things I want to do

#
[jgmac1106] Not sure, maybe they have a filter like number of plugins or theme s you contribute to.
#
[jgmac1106] if we lose websub and then custom form fields.....IndieWeb WordPress gonna be in world of hurt
#
GWG [pfefferle]: By the way, look at the way I loaded the included files in https://github.com/dshanske/simple-location/blob/master/simple-location.php ? If I added this to other plugins, and implemented a filter, that would be a good way to unload parts of a plugin people didn't want. Is there a utility for that in bundling more things together, like people keep asking? Sort of the Jetpack model?
#
[jgmac1106] mmmmm one IndieWeb plugin to rule them all

#
[pfefferle] [jgmac1106] it is websub, not webmention… but I know the problem now and we are working on reactivation the plugin

#
bradenslen Does anyone know which WP antispam plugins play nice with webmentions?
#
bradenslen I just found out WPBrusier blocks webmentions until you whitelist by IP
[pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] as far as I know every plugin should work fine, because we use the normal create and update hooks
#
[pfefferle] I use antispam bee
[chegalabonga] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] thanks for the info… will have a look
#
bradenslen I just switched to antispam bee. Good to know
#
[pfefferle] antispam bee is also GDPR complient

[pfefferle] 🙂
#
bradenslen Thanks. WPBrusier was blocking both webmentions from Twitter and my other blog. FYI

#
[asuh] Does Antispam Bee compare well or better than Akismet? I had heard of it before today but I haven’t given it any attention
[pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] It’s hard to compare them directly, because there is not really a webservice that checks the comments
#
[pfefferle] But the local checks works nearly perfect
#
[pfefferle] It misses one spam comment in three month or so
