[tonz] this is a bit puzzling: if I run my wp site through indiewebify.me to check for h-cards (which used to go perfectly) it now finds something that isn’t even marked as an h-card (just my name as author with each posting p-author), and completely ignores a representative h-card that contains everything it further suggests. https://indiewebify.me/validate-h-card/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zylstra.org%2Fblog There has been no change in my represe
#
[tonz] changed a while back is that I added a link to my about page to my name as author. This because some other indiewebthingie tried to get the author page url, which I don’t want to use (there are multiple authors in the blog which are all me, just from different incarnations of the site and e.g. the ifttt channel into the site)

GWG jackjamieson: Summit approaches
#
jackjamieson GWG My thoughts exactly
#
jackjamieson I just debugged a bit of RSS parsing in Parse-This
#
jackjamieson And checking over remaining issues, will close a few shortly

#
GWG Do you think we'll be able to demo something?
#
GWG jackjamieson: How's the new autoloader?
#
jackjamieson We'll definitely be able to demo something
#
jackjamieson The new autoloader is working on my dev server, but returning an error on my live site. Seems like it's a conflict with Post Kinds, which I think should be resolved by updating Parse-This in post kinds
#
GWG jackjamieson: I'm trying to release a new Post Kinds, but I have a few issues.
#
GWG I may have to release with fewer features than planned

[jgmac1106] incremental++

#
jackjamieson Hmmm, what's the challenge?
#
GWG Media handling, actually
#
GWG I'm trying to fix showing the title and author on media
#
GWG But WordPress stores that in attachment metadata.
#
jackjamieson Hmmm, I've never tried to extract that info from attachments

#
GWG jackjamieson: But I may try punting on it for a bit.
#
GWG It is what is stalling out
#
jackjamieson Anything I can help with? Testing?
#
GWG jackjamieson: It's all conceptual
#
GWG Either I build it into MF2_Post, which converts mf2 properties to actual storage
#
GWG Or I do it on the save post side
#
GWG Then there is the gallery presentation, but I might punt that
#
GWG Minimum is fixing the storage part
#
GWG Also have to fix the fact authors aren't saving
#
jackjamieson Not sure I grasp all the details, but it does sound like a fair bit
#
GWG #272-277 is what I want to address on the Issue list
#
GWG jackjamieson: I want to pull the name out of the attachment instead of storing a separate title and caption in the photo post
#
GWG jackjamieson: Do you post photos/audio/video?
#
jackjamieson I do not :(
#
GWG jackjamieson: You'd like the next stage
#
GWG I want to build a citation post type, to replace the old link library in WordPress.
[eddie] joined the channel
#
jackjamieson This link library? https://wordpress.org/plugins/link-library/
#
Loqi [Yannick Lefebvre] Description This plugin is used to be able to create a page on your web site that will contain a list of all of the link categories that you have defined inside of the Links section of the WordPress administration, along with all links defined in th...
#
GWG jackjamieson: The built in one in WordPress that was deactivated in 3.5
#
GWG But that is a solution too
#
GWG I don't want to use the old link table. It doesn't support metadata
#
GWG But not doing that now
#
jackjamieson I don't think I ever used the link library, actually. To me this sounds like a blogroll but I feel like I might be misunderstanding
[kevinmarks786] joined the channel
#
GWG jackjamieson, that's why I don't want to use it
#
GWG I want to build something like attachments for links
#
GWG All the metadata stored as a custom post types.
#
jackjamieson Ah, I think I understand. So that if I link to an article it can store the metadata like author, date, etc.?
#
jackjamieson That does sound exciting
#
GWG Yes
#
GWG Big job
#
jackjamieson Yeah, sounds pretty complicated
#
jackjamieson More and more I'm seeing your librarian training :)
#
GWG For now, just going to store attachment metadata in attachments
#
GWG So I am not storing it twice.
#
jackjamieson That does sound good - I can see how that'd be useful for podcasts etc
#
GWG And reusing photos in photo posts and articles
#
jackjamieson GWG++ Now I'm getting it. Sounds like a big job but potentially great
#
Loqi GWG has 89 karma in this channel over the last year (172 in all channels)
#
GWG jackjamieson, for now I need a bandaid so I can release
#
jackjamieson I know that feeling. I've been getting a bunch of ideas for enhancements to Yarns, but going to leave those for after Summit. I think I've hit my goals except for documentation, which I've procrastinated a bit but is on my calendar for tomorrow
#
GWG I am going to try to release this
#
GWG Lots of fixes already
petermolnar joined the channel
#
jackjamieson Nice, I'm looking forward to it
#
jackjamieson As for an IWS demo of Yarns/Parse-This, any thoughts? If you want to plan something out maybe we could have a call beforehand, or talk in Portland if you have any time on the 27th/28th
