# 20:17 SpencerDub The Post Kinds plugin says extra kinds can be enabled by adding a certain PHP function. Would that be added to the theme or the plugin files? # 20:17 Loqi [David Shanske] Description
Post Kinds adds support to the Classic Editor for responding to and interacting with other sites using the standards
developed by the IndieWeb by implementing kinds of posts. It is not compatible with Gutenberg.
It can also distinguish ... # 20:17 GWG SpencerDub: I would recommend against editing the plugin itself. # 20:18 GWG chrisaldrich, for example, has a custom plugin to do it # 20:38 SpencerDub Right, I figured editing the plugin itself would be a bad idea, due to updates. # 20:40 GWG SpencerDub: What exactly are you looking for? # 20:41 GWG Most of the disabled ones are disabled due lack of UI or output functionality # 20:41 GWG They are just reserved for future use or only work via Micropub so far # 20:42 SpencerDub I'm curious about wishes, acquisitions, and recipes. # 20:43 GWG But I am working on a templating system for the UI # 20:43 GWG So creating the UI would be a matter of defining an array # 20:43 GWG Been working on it all week, actually # 20:44 GWG It's a major change that will take a lot more work # 20:45 GWG Because after I finish the generating of the UI, I need to write the functionality to save the data once it is retrieved. # 20:46 GWG Then I need to update the output system to use the same, so possibly any arbitrary kind would output correctly, even if not pretty # 20:49 GWG That would also allow me to get help designing the interface for new kinds as adding a property would be relatively easy. gRegorLove and [chrisaldrich] joined the channel
# 21:03 [chrisaldrich] SpencerDub, I've got acquisitions and wishes which are on a slightly older version of post kinds and I hope to update tonight or tomorrow. # 21:04 [chrisaldrich] Recipes are harder since they have more data pieces. I have a few samples in raw html, but not using post kinds. # 21:32 SpencerDub Gotcha. I'm marking up recipes by hand right now; luckily, I only have three on my site, so it's not too much work.
