!tell pfeferrle I noticed on cambrideport90 site that the notes are showing (no title) in widgets. I forget the fix you used in SemPress if it was a date or snippet.
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

everything is showing up like that except for long-form posts. I'm still trying to figure out how to fix it. I might have to edit the template itself, though.

cambridgeport90: this is because indieweb-post-kinda doesn't filter the_title outside of admin
#
cambridgeport90
Is there a method around that?
#
Ruxton
yes but it'll make autonomie display titles on all the kinds that it shouldn't
#
Ruxton
https://ignite.digitalignition.net/ <-- have a look at this at present
#
Ruxton
the "Kinds Post Widget" titles a lot better for post kinds, but you can only filter by one kind
#
cambridgeport90
that looks pretty awesome, though I'll never figure out how you did that.
#
Ruxton
cambridgeport90: if you look in wp-content/plugins/indieweb-post-kinds/includes/class-kind-taxonomy.php for the function the_title you'll see an is_admin conditonal in there before it filters, If you want titles everywhere, removing this will filter the title for front end too
#
GWG
You want to change the post widget?
#
Ruxton
I was gonna send a pretty PR to multi-select kinds in the widget? so you can do a "Recent Activity" for things I intend to exclude from front page
#
Ruxton
just have to do some work first :(
#
GWG
I am enjoying the PRs

I add categories for things I don’t want to see on front page or someplace else, then filter on those (using the Category Excluder plugin in WP). So my bookmarks etc. only show on pages away from frontpage, and my check-ins only if you go directly to that category page. I also exclude check-ins from my RSS feed.

[frank]
[tonz] But you can't do that with Post Kinds right? Or do you make specific categories for specific Post Kinds?

#
[pfefferle]
should be a default feature of the post-kinds plugin… why not file an issue?
#
[jgmac1106]
I used a page builder and categories to do something similar
#
[jgmac1106]
If you are looking for prio art Known does a nice job of letting you select what post types show on the home page, maybe something similar with post kinds
#
[jgmac1106]
https://archive.jgregorymcverry.com though I liked also being able to display by category as well...so I could say all articles with edu305 category

There is an issue

Tell us more :face_with_monocle:

For filtering the main page
#
[Rose]
Which number? I didn't see it with my search.

[xavierroy] #256 Exclude Post Kinds from Front Page
#
Loqi
[dshanske] #102 Allow for a 'stream' feed
#
GWG
I personally don't show a feed on the main page any longer
#
GWG
So, creating a custom second feed to give out seems better to me.
#
[Rose]
I want to figure out my homepage this weekend. Currently it's the same as my blog tab - but I want an about section on there
#
GWG
[Rose]: Keep me informed on how that goes. Curious to see what I might enhance.
#
GWG
If enough people are upset about the main feed issue, I might speed up my secondary feed ideas and see if that satisfies

#
[pfefferle]
Are you talking about the feed (xml) or about the html page?
[jgmac1106] and [tantek] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106]
I think a home page, but you can have a section for a feed for your articles in x category, notes in x caterogy, photos, etc
#
GWG
pfefferle, both
#
GWG
I am reluctant to filter the main query which would change both
#
GWG
I would rather create a second feed
#
GWG
pfefferle, by the way, if I don't put the brackets for Slack, do you get no notified?

[Rose]: Were you the one who asked recently about the user location functionality in Simple Location? Fixing a quick bug and wanted to see if there are any other quick fixes I need to put in
#
[Rose]
Uhhh, I don't think so
#
Webrocker
is there a way to debug what the webmention endpoint is doing (thinking of something like the log at brid.gy)? with WP in debug mode I see (php)related stuff, but I'd like to monitor what happens event if there's no obvious error…? Or should I just dump all post requests in a log file?
#
Webrocker
(hello btw) ;-)
#
[pfefferle]
not yet, but I think there is an issue for that
#
GWG
I was thinking about that the other day, logging for debugging
#
GWG
[Rose]: Maybe it was chrisaldrich. Things blend together
#
GWG
[Rose]: Any simple Simple Location issues on your list while I am quickly bug fixing m
#
GWG
[pfefferle]: By the way, will respond to your PR comments
#
[Rose]
I can't think of any.
#
GWG
Good. I keep switching gears
#
GWG
I like that sometimes when I am stalled.
#
GWG
But I will always stop to fix a broken thing that I think I can quickly address
#
Webrocker
/[pfefferle] thx. I wanted to check if I have an issue related to some weird combination of (local) factors, or if that "duplicate comment" error is caused by the webmention plugin before I open an issue… :-)

Would it be simple to add a preference in Simple Location to have maps show up on the site homepage?

The issue you just opened
#
[Rose]
Ok, I think I have a bug that can be replicated. Doing a reply via micropub results in a double h-cite
#
[Rose]
But, I don't see the reply fields, and post kinds has updated since I last saw them

Update your parent theme
#
GWG
There's a PR about Autonomie for that
#
GWG
Priority 9 instead of 20
[pfefferle] joined the channel
#
[pfefferle]
Ah, [Rose] you are using Autonomie 😍
#
[pfefferle]
Nice child theme! Haven‘t recognized it 😉
#
[Rose]
How do I make WordPress check for updates to a theme?
#
GWG
From GitHub?
#
GWG
Use GitHub updater?
#
[Rose]
Or do I have to do this update for myself for now 😋
#
GWG
If pfefferle supports it
#
[Rose]
Oh yes, GitHub.
#
[Rose]
I forgot this isn't a theme in the directory.

#
GWG
There's a plugin you can install for that
#
[pfefferle]
I think I have implemented github updated

Loqi
[afragen] github-updater: This WP plugin will update GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, and Gitea hosted plugins and themes

[pfefferle]
I am not sure if it will be accepted for the wp.org store 😐
#
[pfefferle]
[Rose] have you published your Child theme?
[tantek] and [Rose] joined the channel
#
[Rose]
I have not. It's using paid for fonts.
#
[Rose]
But I could.
#
GWG
You don't have to publish the fonts

[chrisaldrich]
GWG I think heard Andy Fragen mention that wp5.2 should have methods for checking min php and minimum version of WP, ostensibly to prevent people from installing incompatible plugins.
#
GWG
Yes, but I am checking to see what version I need to make minimum
[tantek], [cleverdevil], ichoquo0Aigh9ie and [Rose] joined the channel
#
[Rose]
I need to figure that out
#
GWG
Which that?
#
[Rose]
Sharing my child theme
#
[Rose]
Because I changed a lot, and not all of it with particular reasons other than "my style my way" 😛
#
[Rose]
Plus I need to make sure any version I share doesn't include reference to my font files
#
[Rose]
But, now I can git pull any time Autonomie is updated
#
[Rose]
!tell [pfefferle] I couldn't get a right sidebar working at all, I probably missed something obvious though?
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
