dougbeal| GWG: I found another releated bug... the comment_author_email is getting "mailtoblog@dougbeal.com", which is presumably escaped/striped from mailto:blog@dougbeal.com. I glanced through the code, but haven't identified where it is happening
# dougbeal| GWG: I saw that, didn't think it was the cause if it just adds slashes
# dougbeal| What do you think is stripping the colon out?

[dougbeal] GWG: the two different email addresses?

# [dougbeal] It picks up the one in the h-card, so I would say working as intended
# [dougbeal] If it was a multi user wp installation, would there be a general site email? Not saying that’s what I’m doing... mine is just cruft

# cambridgeport90[ Someone was asking earlier why Microformats 2 has to be supported in each individual theme. We use the Divi theme on a org site and want to include some IndieWeb functionality.
# cambridgeport90[ site in question is [StormlightTech](https://stormlighttech.org)
# [Michael_Beckwit there's no automated way that a plugin, or really even WordPress core, to include microformats, so it's up to the theme developers to handle themselves
# cambridgeport90[ o then I take it we will just have to use the plugin for that with Divi. Somehow I don't see Elogant Themes trying to get this.
# [Michael_Beckwit Even that detail is potentially troublesome because the plugins need various hooks to be present in the theme to integrate in with
# [Michael_Beckwit and there's no guarantee that they'll be three

# [Michael_Beckwit there*
# [Michael_Beckwit and i've seen Divi's output, it's not pretty 😄
# [Michael_Beckwit not saying it's not possible with that theme, it'd just be an interesting task
# cambridgeport90[ Ih boy ...
# cambridgeport90[ I guess I ought to thanmk the gods then that I'm not the web designer .
# [Michael_Beckwit it has it's fun alongside it's headaches, much like most everything
# cambridgeport90[ My friend keeps asking me why I try to jump content management systems for my personal site. Have yet to find a hashtag plugin for WordPress that will let me use them as categories; I use lots of tags, but only my viewers on site can see them right now.
# cambridgeport90[ Indeed, and then to have them posted on the Twitter when the post goes out. I think I might have to use another plug-in for that, though.

# [dougbeal] Does it make inline hashtags act as wordpress hashtags? I would like that, I think
# [Michael_Beckwit a touch of preg_replace() and the "the_content" filter would go a ways too, if you want to homebrew a solution
# [Michael_Beckwit $caption = "Some text with a hashtag #quote";
# [Michael_Beckwit $caption = preg_replace('/#([\w.]+)/u', '<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/$1">#$1</a>', $caption);
# [Michael_Beckwit echo $caption;
# [Michael_Beckwit results in: Some text with a hashtag <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/quote">#quote</a>
# cambridgeport90[ Thanks for reminding me about that.
# [dougbeal] the wordpress tag interface is a PITA when making a daily post with the same tags.
# [dougbeal] I guess it would just 404 if the tag didn’t exist
# cambridgeport90[ I meant to install that but never got around to it.
