GWG Found two more bugs to do quick fixes on. Minor release versions of Simple Location and Post Kinds coming
#
GWG Might add in something special if I can find a quick enhancement
#
[davidmead] GWG I have a .sql export of my WP blog before I wiped it. Is there a way to import that into the new MySQL database for a WP install?
#
GWG Yes
#
GWG You should be able to restore the site.
#
Loqi definitely
#
[davidmead] Just import the whole .sql file in the phpMyAdmin ?
#
GWG Yes. Maybe you want to run it on a subdomain until your new site is working
#
[davidmead] As the Known WP import doesn’t work I wanted to reinstate my old WP on /blog/ and use Known on the root going forward
#
[davidmead] At the moment if the new install at /blog breaks I’ll just start it from scratch again 😉
#
[davidmead] now that .sql file is too big 😞

#
[jgmac1106] [davidmead] my approach was to take my old WP and put in on a subdomain, write a redirect and just use Known moving forward....We will convince [cleverdevil] to write us a WP>JSON> micropub to Known plugin one day
#
[jgmac1106] happy to hop on a video call with you at some point today I am -5 UTC in EDT

#
[davidmead] [jgmac1106] Thanks for the offer of a call. I don’t have my laptop with me today
#
[kevinmarks] there was working wp to known at one point, [benwerd] and I used it for http://www.diveintomark.link/
#
[davidmead] Its a big stumbling block kevinmarks, not having that working
#
[davidmead] especially for us non-cmd line nerds 😉
#
[jgmac1106] The Known to WP plugin works for syndication and not for migration, you can;t even import a Known to Known site
#
[jgmac1106] no prob [davidmead] just file issues as they arise in the repo or send me email or webmention

#
[asuh] Morning GWG, taking a look at your updated iw26 to see what changes I can implement in my theme. I see a new `node_modules` folder is visible in Github repo, is that purposely?
#
GWG [asuh]: I am now loading genericons-neue instead of genericons.
#
GWG So, this will allow any changes to be bundled in
#
GWG So not necessary
#
[asuh] yes, I see. It still might be a good idea for `node_modules` to only be visible to local users who do an `npm install` since it’s a dev dependency only
#
[asuh] or, what you have in the repo could also include the generated build output instead, where it would be linked to
#
GWG I'll see about doing a copy then
#
[asuh] Your changes/updates to iw26 are looking good
#
GWG [asuh]: I'm trying to make it ready for a stable release.
#
GWG So I wanted to set up a better dev environment.
#
GWG [asuh]: It isn't a dev dependency. I should fix that. It is an actual dependency
#
[asuh] Yes, better dev environment is always a good challenge to take on
#
GWG Working on a few Simple Location bugfixes I need to do
#
GWG Like your issues
#
[asuh] Yeah, I saw your replies earlier, thanks. Are you going to keep the “Lookup” button no matter the mode for using Location?
#
[asuh] I still need to troubleshoot why my theme displays a string of markup when I use Simple Location
#
GWG It does look up the weather and address from the coordinates regardless
#
GWG I may change Cancel to Save
#
GWG I fixed a bunch of minor display bugs
#
GWG As for why Lookup...
