toyinariyo Hello. I am a new IndieWeb user trying to get WebMentions working on my WordPress website.
# toyinariyo I have added rel-me and h-card URLS to my homepage (https://toyinariyo.com) but according to IndieWebify, the Twitter URL does not link back.
# 
[KevinMarks] Twitter broke linking back in a more recent site update. You should still be able to log into the wiki with it
# toyinariyo Oh, I didn't realise that. Bridgy also says "No webmention targets" despite me having the WebMentions, Semantic Linkbacks and IndieWeb plugins installed. I also set the Mentions to be linked to a page I created named Mentions (https://toyinariyo.com/mentions) but so far, no WebMentions are being sent to that page.
# toyinariyo I'm not sure if it's something I did wrong or if I'm missing a step on installing the WordPress plugins and setting it up with Bridgy.
# toyinariyo Would it be okay if I sent some images/screenshots via ImgBB to illustrate what I mean?
# toyinariyo I've logged into the wiki and I've created my user page (https://indieweb.org/User:Toyinariyo.com).
# toyinariyo Sorry for clogging this chat Kevin. I just want to clarify that because Twitter broke linking back rel-me URLs, that's the reason why WebMentions aren't showing in my Mentions page and why Bridgy shows the yellow badge saying, "You need webmention support."

# [snarfed] Hi toyinariyo, sorry for the trouble! Looks like you're set up and working now? Bridgy's no longer complaining "You need webmention support," and it's now successfully sent a webmention to https://toyinariyo.com/2022/04/05/testing-if-bridgy-works/
# [snarfed] Also, he special https://toyinariyo.com/mentions page you set up in the plugin is only for receiving @-mentions. Replies, likes, and retweets go to the specific page on your blog that they're responding to
# toyinariyo Hi snarfed - thank you for clarifying this for me. Everything is working as it should (I received your like of my post/tweet as a comment on that post).
