[prtksxna] I’m done (read starting) with my second Gutenberg plugin. I now understand `attributes` and `isSelected` better 😊

[prtksxna] Why Loqi? Why?
#
[prtksxna] Code is here https://github.com/prtksxna/visualize (don’t know why the WP repo doesn’t link to it 🤷‍♂️)

#
[grantcodes] No problem! Been back at it making custom blocks myself this week too
#
[prtksxna] Ooh, nice. Open source?
#
[prtksxna] I think in my next one I am going to try and learn how to interact with post meta
#
[grantcodes] For work so nah, wouldn't be any use open source anyway

[tim038] Is it possible to disable regular WordPress comments but still allow webmentions?
[tw2113] joined the channel
#
[tw2113] i think the webmentions plugin relies more on the pingback settings, if i recall correctly
#
GWG [tw2113]: It used to, but I took it out on the basis installing the plugin was a declaration you wanted webmentions
#
GWG I forget if we check for whether comments are open
#
GWG I have to look

#
[chrisaldrich] [tim038] you could try to hide the UI for entering traditional comments in your theme? It would be a nice setting to have if it's not there. This has definitely come up before.
#
[chrisaldrich] Does anyone disable commenting and delegate it all to something like webmention.io?
gRegorLove and [KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
GWG WordPress doesn't really support delegation per se

#
[chrisaldrich] You'd just need to put the endpoint into your header... Delegation done.
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: Yes
#
[chrisaldrich] Different sort of delegation I suppose...
#
[chrisaldrich] Doesn't do much for own your data though unless you build other parts to import.
#
GWG [chrisaldrich]: That was what I was referring to.

[tim038] [chrisaldrich] I will give that a try. Thank you.
