@gwg Monocle same thing with the potential RFI.
#
GWG
You need to disable that rule I suppose

It’s odd it crops up in this WP sand box but doesn’t in my regular blog, which although on a diff domain are just 2 folders on the same server / hosting package.
#
GWG
Not sure why
#
GWG
Working on jsonfeed today for WordPress

I only look at it once a year or so. Today, working on fixing the support for comment feeds as there is weirdness when you try to pull up feeds for a single page.
#
[tonz]
oops removing that rule results in a 500 internal server error. Odd.
#
[tonz]
time to submit a ticket to my hoster I think

the hoster is looking into it. Normally they’re responsive, so I’ll wait and see.

[Rose]: Are you sending RSS or jsonfeed to micro.blog?
#
[Rose]
RSS right now
#
GWG
Okay, any particular reason why?
#
GWG
Working on feeds right now
#
GWG
Also going to tweak the post kinds presentation of feeds
#
[Rose]
I forgot how the JSON feeds work
#
GWG
You need the jsonfeed plugin
#
GWG
And then it is /feed/json instead of just /feed
[kevinmarks] and [kevinmarks786] joined the channel
#
[Rose]
I have that plugin.

Ok, so the RFI errors by modsecurity have been taken care of by the hoster, in my attempt at logging into https://meso.tzyl.nl with a micropub client. It still results in a 403 forbidden ‘unauthorized’ message though. My error log now says [Tue May 28 19:13:09.364956 2019] [lsapi:notice] [pid 1978128] [client 173.230.155.197:42778] [host meso.tzyl.nl] Backend log: PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in
#
[tonz]
To me that looks like something I need to narrow down in the code, and possibly header related.
#
GWG
I have seen that before

@gwg do you remember when/where?

#
GWG
I remember discussing it as a possible issue in Indieauth
[tonz] joined the channel
#
[tonz]
@gwg I think it may have something to do with the php version I’m running.

Hi all. It seems I am not the only one tearing my hair out over WordPress Indieauth. This is oddly comforting somehow.
#
[arush]
I do not have a solution yet, but if I find one before the others in this channel do, I will be more than happy to post it. The problem that I’m reading through sounds like the one that I am having.
#
GWG
[arush]: What problems are you experiencing?
#
GWG
I just added a tester...was really hoping it would help
#
[arush]
It will authorize exactly once, on a completely fresh word press install, and after that point everything returns a 403 error because there is not a matching token in the database when a micro public post is attempted.
#
GWG
Wonder why not
#
[arush]
Micropub
#
GWG
Wonder what is different
#
GWG
[arush]: With or without IndieAuth plugin?
#
[arush]
The end points are there, Services can find and discover them, they just cannot authorize, except for that one time after I reinstalled the plug-in and then attempted to use on your Swarm. Erin Pereki is probably going to murder me after the amount of times I have tried to submit check-in‘s.
#
[arush]
I am trying to add a new person to the indieweb and this plug-in is making a liar out of me.
#
[arush]
With. It’s the authorization plug-in that I think is causing the problem.
#
GWG
[arush]: Did you check the settings page? It does a check now as of the last version
#
[arush]
Yes, and I ran the script check. It says everything checks out.
#
GWG
Odd
#
GWG
I keep knocking down issues
#
GWG
But haven't gotten them all
#
GWG
How is everything else working?
#
[arush]
Everything else seems to be working fine. There is a PHP issue with the simple location plug-in, but I need to finish writing the code change that will fix that and submit it as a pull request. I just haven’t had time because I’ve been digging into this authorization weirdness.
#
GWG
[arush]: IndieAuth is one of the hardest things to troubleshoot
#
GWG
Curious what the Simple Location problem is
#
GWG
I keep trying to fix everything
#
GWG
[arush]: Any feature requests?
[jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
[arush]
It’s an on caught error, and I would have to go look up the specifics again. It drops a friendly error of the site is having technical difficulties, and puts the full PHP error in my server log. It triggers when you try to look up the location when you were writing a post or in your profile.
#
GWG
Keep me posted.
#
[arush]
I will do that. I need to figure out how to log into this chat through Slack on my laptop here. Because I do not want to have to try and type that entire long error on my phone.
#
GWG
chat.indieweb.org
#
[arush]
I went there, but when I launch slack, and type in my email address invite me to join again instead of logging in.
