GWG Morning
#
Loqi good morning
#
GWG Hoping to figure out why manual webmentions for attachments are working but not when a post on my site sends them.
#
GWG Sometimes debugging is hard.

#
[pfefferle] Are you sure it was sent?
#
[pfefferle] Do we set headers for attachments?

#
bekomotion[m] In some wordpress plugin was mentioned a handy plugin to hide categories or post kinds from "all posts" stream so I could add a link for only this specific post kind to the navigation. I just don't remember where. Any ideas?
#
GWG [pfefferle]: Bingo
#
GWG That must be the answer
#
GWG [pfefferle]: I also need to add a bunch of settings around this
#
GWG bekomotion[m]: I have a way to generate a custom stream, but not to override the main stream
#
bekomotion[m] Yeah, it was some different plugin that would allow this and it was mentioned somewhere but I really can't remember.
#
bekomotion[m] I read _so much_ new stuff over the last days 😆
#
GWG [pfefferle]: You can't set headers in WordPress for files in the content directory
#
GWG bekomotion[m]: Probably ultimate category excluder
#
bekomotion[m] GWG: Will give it a shot, thanks
#
GWG [pfefferle]: It would have to be done server side, wouldn't it?
#
GWG So, for it to work, might require some additional work

#
[pfefferle] Yes
zoink92Discord[m joined the channel
#
GWG [pfefferle]: I suppose I will just document it as experimental then, but enable webmentions to attachment post types
#
GWG [pfefferle]: You can't add it without an htaccess or nginx config

#
bekomotion[m] GWG: Looked that plugin up. Will pass on it. It'll probably just work but will produce a lot of needle in the haystack loops written in an illegible way (like not using an RecursiveIterator), has a lot of copy & paste code instead of using functions. It's also using $_POST to store an [empty] Array. That's a lot of code smell for a few lines.
#
GWG bekomotion[m]: If you just want a custom feed, but it not being the main feed, that is built into Post Kinds
#
bekomotion[m] That's fine, thanks 🙂 I was just looking for a way to declutter my main page
[jgmac1106] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] Bekomotion I did this by using a page builder. Some use edcluse category and add categories to thinds they don't want in feed
#
[jgmac1106] Exclude×
#
[jgmac1106] Things×
#
bekomotion[m] Yeah my wife wants me to do that as well but I've a deep antipathy on such 😆

#
GWG i have issues with hacking the main feed
koalalorenzoDisc joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] One of the cool things about gwg taxonomy approach is you can build any view you want
#
GWG So I built an alternate feed
thatguyDiscord[m joined the channel
#
bekomotion[m] It is.
[KevinMarks], Lolicon[m] and cesarosum[m] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] So if you know how to use them...
johanhermanDisc4, cannabysDiscord[, deltaDiscord[m] and oed3[m] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] I ended up doing Elementor. I wanted a ton of customization in the feeds I displayed on my home page
postablesDiscord joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] I was able to sort by kind and category.
#
bekomotion[m] That's exactly the one my wife uses as well.

#
[jgmac1106] I have a bunch of tutorials from when I taught using Elementor and IndieWeb WP if you go that route
#
[jgmac1106] Gwg if you know how to write the filters for different feeds I can scope out common use cases
#
bekomotion[m] Sure. I'll forward this 😉

#
[jgmac1106] It's a standard format p-name, u-featured, p-summary, border width,
ad87657Discord[m joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] Then allow you to sort by kind and category and/0r tag... This part works well..
#
[jgmac1106] Then on front end present that as h-feed

#
bekomotion[m] I wonder… I can't make `e.g. /kind/reply/` my start page, or? Not without plugins.. That does only allow static pages as alternative. Could mayhap write a html 302 rule tho.
