petermolnar oh, my, WordPress minutely cron has been spamming me for days with "PHP Warning:  "continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"? in /web/hardergeneration.org/web/wp-includes/pomo/plural-forms.php on line 210"
#
petermolnar anyone familiar with that issue?

petermolnar ooooh. I accidentally went php 7.3 with cli and 7.2 with fpm

GWG This is weird. My new syndication code works perfectly from Micropub but in the post editor, it posts but doesn't get the URL back
#
GWG Okay. Delay fixed that problem.

GWG jgmac1106, can I question you on something?
#
GWG I need an everyman type opinion
[manton] joined the channel
#
GWG Finding an everyman is hard
[schmarty] and [jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] @gwg sure, opinion
#
GWG You've seen the Syndication interface in Micropub clients, correct?
#
[jgmac1106] yes
#
GWG It is just a checkbox
#
GWG For each service
#
[jgmac1106] but here I am losing my everyman....adding the markup for syndication so easy I prefer to do it manually...but that could be its hard.....that is what I want, just checkboixes
#
[jgmac1106] needs to be a different set up UI that has a default @ mention setup, and ability to choose a specific feed to syndicate possiblly
#
GWG Well, in Bridgy Publish, I have multiple settings.. include link or don't
#
GWG I want to remove them and just have a box
#
[jgmac1106] keep micropub client as clean as possible, close to one button publish as possible
#
GWG Check it and it posts
#
GWG This is the WordPress post ui
#
GWG I want to mirror the Micropub UI
#
[jgmac1106] settings I like, just separate from publish, yes you have correct UX IMO
#
[jgmac1106] need checkbox for GitHub, Twitter, Mastodon, Micro.blog.....but others built the Matodon plugin...no need to go crazy now....this would be ideal.....for micro.blog put in the correct html for an @ mention

GWG jgmac1106, new interface can handle anything as long as it is behind the scenes.
[manton] and [cleverdevil] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] you could switch to toggle instead of a checkbox
[eddie] joined the channel
#
GWG Still the same thing
#
GWG No other settings
#
GWG That is what I'm going for
#
GWG Either way, simple good

#
[kevinmarks] Also, consider getting them down to favicons like instagram does, if space is tight
gRegorLove_ joined the channel
#
GWG [kevinmarks]: It isn't space. It is functionality.
[jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] only settings I could think of is specifying a feed or category to default publish, unselecting the checkbox after publishing (so updates don't resyndicate), setting up @ mentions...though maybe the plugin should handle @ mention correctly without user knowing
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: I didn't add auto-syndicate functionality. You have to check every time at this moment.
#
GWG That's why I was asking you about reproducing how Micropub does it. There is no...auto-check in a Micropub client.
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: Can I pick your brain about POSSE as well as long as you are around?
#
[jgmac1106] yeah there should be a check by default option, but check is removed after first published. This is how Mastodon Autoshare works..itsnice
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: The problem with that is knowing if the post was published by the editor or by Micropub.
#
GWG I may start with deploying the feature with very little in terms of options and iterate over time.
#
GWG People can still use the older plugin
#
GWG The way the new one works would allow me to use it for posting manually. Auto seems like more of a contextual feature.
#
GWG I'd rather set it to know when I don't want it to go then have to uncheck a box.
#
GWG It's in line with the idea that if you want it to syndicate, it should just do it. If you want to make a decision, it should be off by default.
#
[jgmac1106] makes sense
#
[jgmac1106] Ever see this when trying to parse a link in the response properties "Method Not Allowed"
#
GWG Is it Linkedin?
#
GWG By the way, the new syndication support is now in the master branch of the Syndication Links Github repo.
#
GWG Next features...hide options.
#
[jgmac1106] no
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: I asked because they block retrieval.
#
GWG So, whatever site it is is preventing the retrieval of the page by my system.
