[jgmac1106] [chrisaldrich] I tried two: *Event Calendar WD* and *Event Organiser* I need a to a dep dive to find my history
#
[jgmac1106] but memory probably serves me incorrectly that Event organiser was easier to modify
#
[jgmac1106] more POSH than functions
#
[jgmac1106] what i have active now.
#
[jgmac1106] What I did was a search for all old mf and delete
#
[jgmac1106] and then added mf2
#
[chrisaldrich] Ping me when you find it and we'll see if we can get it working.
#
[jgmac1106] will do..it was fun...need to figure it [Sadik_Shahadu] and I need to rebuild their WordPress site
#
[jgmac1106] we exported the site...need to get a site back up and imported.....but always difficult....may go the archive versus import route...
#
[jgmac1106] I may try to import into SemPress and see what happens
#
[jgmac1106] for literacyeveryday I am using the givingpress theme, but I can publish post kinds that work....
#
[jgmac1106] ...tooo many charities....raise your hand if you wanna help an hour or so a month with some website WordPress help......DM if you wish...signing off...gonna try to get away with kids for two days (except for teaching online)

GWG SpencerDub: Still having trouble?

GWG [xavierroy]: Saw your comment. Interested how?
#
[xavierroy] I think I just figured it now. I had not enabld the Set User to Represent Site URL dropdown after upgrading the IndieAuth plugin
#
[xavierroy] Once I did that, I could log in to indiebookclub
#
GWG I meant the Post Kinds comment a
#
GWG But glad IndieAuth is working
#
[xavierroy] For post Kinds, you meant the UI
#
GWG Yes
#
GWG And citations
#
[xavierroy] They seem to work only when there is an URL in the field, right?
#
GWG Which?
#
[xavierroy] I think I got confused. The citation you are referring to is the URL in the Response Properties section, right
#
GWG It's moving the whole response properties into it's own post type
#
GWG Essentially, I don't always post my bookmarks
#
GWG So this allows me to own my bookmarks and only post some of them
#
GWG I want to dump pinboard
#
[xavierroy] oh ok. Understood it now
#
GWG So, you go into the UI, I imagine use something like the media library picker to add your url to a post
#
GWG On Gutenberg a block

#
[jgmac1106] Why not just bookmark and publish private or public?
#
[jgmac1106] Or does this make them more portable for you?

#
SpencerDub Good morning, IndieWeb! Would anyone happen to have an example of a "clean" child theme for Autonomie? I'd like to start working on a child theme for my site, but I don't know what embeds or enqueued I need to set up.
#
SpencerDub I recall Matthias saying he was considering uploading one to GitHub, but I haven't been able to find it yet. 😊

#
[Michael_Beckwit a child theme only really needs the style.css file to make it a valid theme, so you shouldn’t need to handle any embeds/enqueues yourself
#
[Michael_Beckwit that’d still get handled by the parent
#
[Michael_Beckwit biggest thing to know is that functions.php get loaded from both, child first I believe.

takev[m] Does the webmentions plugin also support sending webmentions when posting a reply to a comment?
#
[jgmac1106] Yes
#
[jgmac1106] You just use the url of the comment
#
takev[m] Hmm, I don't see a place to enter the URL.
#
GWG takev[m]: Why do you need it? If it is ib the comment already?
#
takev[m] Here is my example: https://charlotteallen.info/2020/02/26/7524/
#
takev[m] I created a reply to Chris's post, and he responded in his comments. It got pushed back to my reply as a comment. I replied to his comment with my own comment. I am wondering if my comment is going to be sent back to his blog, or if I need to create a new reply post.
#
Loqi [Charlotte Allen] Do you have an example of how you’ve set up your POST? I assume you it’s something like "h=food&drank=VALUE"?
#
GWG No, that works. We tested it
#
takev[m] nods
#
takev[m] Alright, then it is probably just held for moderation on Chris's site.
#
takev[m] Thanks!
#
GWG takev[m]: Auto approve by domain is working again
#
takev[m] Sweeeet.
#
takev[m] It's entirely possible that I am not auto approved, though. Ah well. I just want to make sure that my communication flow is correct.
#
GWG takev[m]: How are you enjoying the Indieweb WordPress products?
#
takev[m] I quite like them. They are excellent foundational tools that can be built off of.
#
takev[m] I would like to see certain features for non-developers. Specifically, for syndication links, we have the custom POSSE providers field. That is really awesome, and I would love to have the ability to toggle each provider on a post by post basis, rather than always sending the mention.
#
takev[m] Though, that's just one of my itches to work on. :P
#
GWG takev[m]: It requires you set it each time
#
GWG I keep getting requests for not making people select it
#
takev[m] Huh, really? Then I may have a bug.
#
GWG Odd.
#
GWG Lot to do

takev[m] uploaded an image: image.png (23KB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/KZQiHuVhdxqaPOridmqApXFP >
#
GWG Yes, none of them are checked
#
takev[m] Yeah. What I mean is, shouldn't I see that "Test" provider?
#
GWG Look lower down on the first page... you have checkboxes that show which ones will appear
#
GWG People complained anything set always appeared
#
takev[m] Ooooh.
#
takev[m] I didn't notice that. I am a fool. :P
#
GWG takev[m]: When I had it as disable, people couldn't figure it out either
#
GWG UI is hard
#
takev[m] What if there was a checkbox for "Enable" on the same row as the custom providers, rather than merging it with the default providers?
[Jeff_Hawkins] joined the channel
#
GWG takev[m]: I may try that next time I play with it
#
takev[m] :D
#
takev[m] I might play with it as well.
#
GWG I love PRs
#
takev[m] :D
