#
[frank] I still have problems with 403 errorcodes when I Indieauth in my WordPress site. Omnibear hangs at "fetching syndication targets" and I see errors in the log. I have no idea how to move forward with this...
#
[frank] See the messages on this channel from March 14th
#
dougbeal frank: that sounds like https://wordpress.org/plugins/micropub/#faq-header. There is a diagnostic script at wp-content/plugins/indieauth/authdiag.php
#
GWG I need to push the php7.3 compatibility functions to WordPress.org
#
[frank] [dougbeal] on that script I get the error: "Deprecated: filter_input(): explicit use of FILTER_FLAG_SCHEME_REQUIRED and FILTER_FLAG_HOST_REQUIRED is deprecated in /home/digging/public_html/wp-content/plugins/indieauth/authdiag.php on line 30"
#
[frank] Does that have to do with php 7.3 compatibility?
#
GWG Yes
#
GWG We fixed it, but no one has approved my last PR
#
GWG I need a reviewer

#
GWG All I need is a community member to review this and I can push it
#
[frank] I wonder what will happen when I change the PHP version on the PHP Version Manager at Siteground (where the site is hosted)
#
GWG Alternatively, you could download it from GitHub
#
GWG The likelihood is your problem is with the authorization header
#
GWG [frank]: Does Quill work?
gRegorLove_ joined the channel
#
[frank] Quill works
#
[frank] It can't load sydication targets
#
GWG Okay, then your problem is Authorization Headers
#
GWG https://github.com/indieweb/wordpress-indieauth/blob/master/readme.md
#
GWG Read "I keep getting the response that my request is Unauthorized"
#
GWG It is likely that
#
GWG Re Syndication targets...what do you have installed to provide them?
#
GWG Two things provide them
#
GWG Syndication Links with the option enabled under the settings page is the recommended one
#
[frank] That’s the one I have
#
[frank] Syndication links that is
#
GWG Is the option enabled on the settings page?
#
GWG It is disabled by default
#
[frank] It’s enabled
#
[frank] With Twitter and Bridge checked
#
[frank] Bridgy
#
[frank] I mean Twitter and Bridgy enabled (so not checked)

GWG Strange. Second report of that, but can't reproduce
#
GWG Needs further investigation
[Rose] joined the channel
#
[Rose] In good news, I have written a script in PHP to read all my files of blog posts, and to parse the headers correctly. The next step is to use the WordPress API to post them to WordPress and correctly set their post kind afterwards! Or maybe I'll use MicroPub to do it. I'm undecided.
#
jeremycherfas Well done [Rose]
#
GWG I recommend Micropub
#
GWG Either way, well done as well
#
[Rose] Thanks! I'm leaning micropub too. IIRC I can send syndication links too.

GWG If you don't want to write the Indieauth flow, you can get a token in the admin

[Rose] This is a one time thing.
#
[Rose] I would definitely do that.
