[chrisaldrich] GWG, never be sorry that air conditioning shows up...
#
GWG After last week's HWC down here, with the heat wave, I could barely last through Thursday work.

[jgmac1106] having fun back on WP for a day, remember I left mainly bc my shared host and bridgy don't play nice (even though Known uses Bridgy too), I want the myspace vibe of plumbing works but I can screw up the design to my hearts content
#
[jgmac1106] and it just annoys my logic how hard it is to add a stuff to the class property...but that is really want as above with css
#
[jgmac1106] but still everything does just work and their are 14,000 plugins for any task, 17 of them work well
#
[jgmac1106] it does annoy me that as an Open Source project one person sits as BD4L...not a fan of that kind of governance

#
[jgmac1106] [chrisaldrich] gwg titleless notes do not get links in the camps rss feed: http://tech-4-teens.club/our-feed/ do you see anything here I can use: https://docs.themeisle.com/article/1130-how-to-use-feedzy-with-a-shortcode
#
[jgmac1106] makes me wonder if I can use Feedzy as a way to import all my older sites into one mega archive...until we get Migration from Micropub, but havent checked in with cleverdevil in awhile on that project 😉

GWG I am thinking of taking a day or two off to work on projects
#
GWG I don't have anywhere to go vacationwise
#
[jgmac1106] GWGCon goes remote in 2020
#
[jgmac1106] hey gwg quick question...where could I add this function would it be in the plug-in itself or the main function file of my theme: https://docs.themeisle.com/article/942-in-feedzy-how-do-i#link-imported-to-initial-source

#
[tw2113] something i need to fix for my book data…remove the randomization of display…random + pagination = no order at all
#
GWG [jgmac1106]: You could make it its own plugin

#
[jgmac1106] I like inoreaders feeds better, especially titleless posts, but I can't get it to work right now.

#
[pfefferle] [jgmac1106] [chrisaldrich] Autonomie has a custom implementation of the syndication Plugin to display it outside the e-content
#
[pfefferle] I also plan to submit it to the wp.org repo... wish me luck...
#
[jgmac1106] yeah I switched to Autonomie...I think the bug I have now is in the syndication links plugin
#
ndegruchy Ah, I ran into that, too. I wasn't able to see my syndicated posts

[chrisaldrich] Reminder that the WordPress and IndieWeb pop up session is coming up on Saturday https://events.indieweb.org/2020/08/getting-started-with-wordpress-an-indiewebcamp-pop-up-session-GsrFJw7ltLd2
#
[pfefferle] [jgmac1106] what exactly
[spieper] joined the channel
#
[spieper] I noticed Syndication Links don’t appear in the latest Autonomie version too. Switch back to an older version and they reappear.
#
GWG I don't think I changed anything big recently.
#
GWG Hmmm...
[tw2113] joined the channel
#
[tw2113] bookmarked that event to see about attending myself. Won’t hurt to have more people who are contributing to the plugin development around

GWG ndegruchy: Probably more on topic here, but I change every theme to use the methodology used by _s
#
ndegruchy GWG, indeed. underscores is where I started looking. Seems like a sane starting point
#
ndegruchy at least, as sane as one can get in WordPress/PHP
#
GWG The structure being that template pieces are separated
#
GWG functions.php only has the theme setup functions and helper functions are separated out..
#
GWG I am a horrible designer, but I have updated several themes to Indieweb compatibility
#
GWG ndegruchy: Got a list of your goals/itches?
#
ndegruchy Not as of current. I've been floating between themes lately. I'm also not much of a designer and trying to wrangle all that, plus having another look at jekyll earlier this week has kept me off of doing much of anything. I'll get something together, though. I have a project board for it.
#
ndegruchy Jekyll is far easier to theme. The problem is, you have no way of ingesting stuff except by using "someone else's stuff" -- or self-hosting everything.
[KevinMarks] and [grantcodes] joined the channel
#
[grantcodes] If you're doing diy themes wp5.5 is going to be really helpful
#
[grantcodes] They're finally adding the ability to easily pass data to `get_template_part` so themes can become much tidier using that
#
GWG [grantcodes]: I will use that
#
beko ndegruchy: heh, afraid that's just the wordpress experience (PHP spaghetti code)
