GWG Hi, jackjamieson

#
GWG I need to help jackjamieson with that auth problem this week
#
jackjamieson GWG++
#
Loqi GWG has 82 karma in this channel over the last year (171 in all channels)
#
GWG I am off all next week for Passover
#
jackjamieson That's right - Happy Passover!
#
jackjamieson I have a feeling I must be missing something simple with the auth problem - if you have time to look at it, that's great! Partly I just don't understand IndieAuth very well, so I'm treating it like a black box
#
GWG well, you could just require the Indieauth plugin to work
#
jackjamieson Actually, my problem is in the endpoint, not in the authorize.php file, so it fails even with indieauth installed
#
jackjamieson Tested with indieauth and without
#
jackjamieson Error arises from load_auth() in the endpoint.php file
#
jackjamieson I can keep at it though, if I work through the differences between yarns and wordpress-micropub I'm sure I'll be able to figure it out
#
GWG I meant, for simplicity sake
#
jackjamieson That seems like a reasonable idea, especially if getting the fallback authorization turns out be another hurdle
#
jackjamieson Certainly, the indieauth plugin provides a better experience, so should be strongly recommended at the very least
#
GWG Yes, I am just saying fix one first
#
jackjamieson Ah, got it. Agreed then. I just meant that because I'm getting the same error in both cases, I think both cases might be fixed at once. But absolutely, it makes sense to fix it with indieauth installed first, and only worry about the fallback authorization after that
#
GWG Will get back to you
#
jackjamieson Thanks! If it looks like it's going to be a time sink for you, I'm happy to keep trying myself. My hope is that I'm missing something simple, which you might be able to spot much quicker than I would

#
GWG jackjamieson, I want it to work
#
jackjamieson :)
#
GWG I have invested a lot of time in the parsing part for that reason
#
jackjamieson Yeah, I'm disappointed to hit this auth bug now when its otherwise in good shape (largely thanks to parse-this). Once that's resolved, I'll push the UI enhancements to a new release
