[xavierroy] How do I make tweets show the post content instead of just a link to my post? Is there a setting that has to be checked or cleared?
#
GWG [xavierroy]: What are you using to post?
#
[xavierroy] Syndication links
#
GWG So, Bridgy Publish for Twitter? Syndication Links is just a UI for this. Well, there is an option to set it from the excerpt, which would override other formatting
#
GWG But, the reason why it would just show a link is if you had a title
#
GWG https://brid.gy/about#publishing
#
GWG In theory, Syndication Links could support a direct API connection. But it is just a UIl
#
[xavierroy] Oh ok. I used titles for my watch posts. Guess that's only links are pushed to Twitter
#
GWG Sometimes, I think about adding a plugin that directly went to Twitter, but that's back to more than the scope of Syndication Links.

#
[xavierroy] [dshanske] I'm trying out the IP theme. Why is there a link icon in front of each title? Is that supposed to indicate a permalink?
#
GWG [xavierroy]: Yes, it should only show up if you didn't set the time to display, because otherwise there was no permalink. I needed to use somethingl.
#
[xavierroy] Ok. Just wondering if Post Kinds is supported by default, you could drop the type icon there just like it is displayed for the response section
#
GWG [xavierroy]: It can be. I am going to continue to improve it, or try to. But I wanted to do some plugin stuff
#
[xavierroy] 👍
#
GWG [xavierroy]: I just worked on upgrading all the SVG icons in all my plugins.
#
GWG Also, Syndication Links now has a custom webmention POSSE UI
#
GWG Parse This, which is the library that handles link previews in Post Kinds, needed some fixes so it would work better with Yarns, which it handles feed reading for. I'd like to get that right.
#
[xavierroy] Is there a Parse This equivalent for static sites?
#
[xavierroy] I'm using Hugo for another site. Would love something like Parse This for that.
#
GWG [xavierroy]: Yes, aaronpk's xray
#
GWG It is available as a site or a library. xray.p3k.io
#
[xavierroy] I'll check that out
#
GWG Xray does more, but I go farther in a few areas in trying to extract data
#
GWG Of course, I don't use it well, but that's a different issue.

[pfefferle] [xavierroy] have you tried the https://wordpress.org/plugins/opengraph/

[pfefferle] ??
#
[pfefferle] [xavierroy] you can check your site-urls here https://cards-dev.twitter.com/validator
[xavierroy] joined the channel
#
[xavierroy] [pfefferle] I'll try both of them
#
[pfefferle] let me know if it works for you
#
[pfefferle] it works perfect on my blog
#
[pfefferle] the plugin should also work for facebook and messaging apps like slack, whatsapp, telegram, …
#
[xavierroy] Just installe dand enabled the plugin
#
[xavierroy] [pfefferle] any plans to support post kinds plugin into activitypub?
[pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle] [xavierroy] what do you mean?
#
[pfefferle] they should already be compatible
[xavierroy] joined the channel
#
[xavierroy] sorry, I meant to ask if say a post type of read is present, would it be displayed as AS Read verb?
#
[xavierroy] I haven't read much on ActivityPub... so i may be wrong too in assuming that the post type could be mapped to an AS verb
#
[pfefferle] ah, I see
#
[pfefferle] currently it will not be mapped, but good point
#
[pfefferle] will you file an issue on GitHub for that?
#
[xavierroy] sure
#

[jgmac1106] what do people think is happenign to [mrkrndvs] p-name the link to the gravatar is showing up instead: https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/2019/02/11/a-blogger-site-that-works-with-indieweb
#
Loqi [Greg McVerry] a @blogger site that works with #IndieWeb tools,had to revert (should say improve) back to classic themes to edit HTML but with just a few changes I can get webmentions publish post, photo, replies, likes, and bookmarks: https://drmacsspot.blogspot...

#
sknebel that's really puzzling
[adam] joined the channel
#
sknebel don't see anything obviously wrong with the source page
#
aaronpk no idea how this happened, but if you view source and search for "gravatar" there's a URL inside an <a> tag
#
aaronpk <a class="p-name u-url" href="https://readwriterespond.com/">https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d00e7ca24ca1b9c853da43af229c0e0e?s=125&amp;d=default&amp;r=g</a>
#
sknebel aaronpk: on gregs page? right, that#s the question why that happened
gRegorLove_ joined the channel
#
aaronpk oh nvm, i thought the question was about why the microformats parser returned that value
