[frank][chrisaldrich] Thanks for the tips re webmentions. I'll have a look at them. On a sidenote, you might have seen some notifications from my micropub adventures last night 🙂 I was testing the Post Kinds plugin with my Genesis theme and I couldn't get it to work properly. It turned out there's a conflict with the Yoast SEO plugin. I already notified David about this.
[frank]I deactivated the SEO plugin so I could work on the template. I used one of your blogposts as a placeholder-bookmark. But it turns out, when your blogpost has comments, they are also included in the micropub response into my WordPress database... Is this because you send them along or because the plugin picks them up? I'm not quite sure how this works...
[tonz][sknebel] Yes, I opened a ticket asking them to add the rule for json, they asked me for the relevant parts of my logfiles, and then fixed it within minutes. Good service I thought.
[frank]I switched from the Genesis childtheme to the Independent Publisher theme on my WP blog. Too much loose ends and nitty gritty things I wanted to change in Genesis and a whole lot of overhead in code and possibilities because of the Genesis theme.
[Rose]I'm using it on my personal site, making my own child theme right now based on their one (I don't want to make many changes, basically all that's left is adding microformats), then I just need to import all my post content!
[frank]GWG Do you have any idea why in the Ind Pub theme I see both the list of available pages twice on my homepage? I use one as a widget in the sidebar, but it automatically shows a list of pages below the blogtitle and subtitle. I have no idea where to disable this.
[chrisaldrich]Start at the beginning and go commit by commit taking (or leaving) the changes your theme might or might not need. Most of the commit messages are pretty solid.
[chrisaldrich]If you read through it all one time to get a gist of what is happening you'll be better off. And github kindly highlights the specific changes for you so you'll have a pretty solid idea of what is/isn't happening.
[chrisaldrich]Looking at his code also helped me a lot with some of the more modern ways of doing WordPress theme development and where code could and should be placed (especially for /DRY -ness)
[chrisaldrich]I've been pecking away at making some changes to the old 2012 theme and it's night and day different as well as much older and uglier to try to make changes compared to the 2016 theme.
[chrisaldrich]Maybe I should take a hack at the 2015 theme instead where I might have better luck.... and that's probably as clean and simple as 2012 is for personal website/blog.

[mrkrndvs] Just a question, what does it mean to get a 'forbidden' response when I enter my url in the webmention ping box?
[chrisaldrich] [Rose] I've always found that the commit trail for GWG's 2016 fork is a reasonably good example of how and where to add microformats to a WordPress theme. https://github.com/dshanske/iw26/commits/master
