# 17:39 GWG [pfefferle]: I'm having that kind of week. [campegg], neceve, Kaja_, Zegnet, caleb, [tantek], [snarfed], gRegorLove_ and [nsmsn] joined the channel
# 21:10 [nsmsn] Connected my website to Bridgy recently. Is there a way to customize the 'Bridgy Response' webmentions I get from Mastodon and Bluesky? # 21:11 [nsmsn] Right now I go into comments and manually type something like "Like" or "Repost" # 21:12 [snarfed] oh no the webmention WP plugin should handle all that automatically # 21:13 Loqi [preview] [Nick Simson] Bookmarked The Negative Impact of Mobile-First Web Design …Bookmarked The Negative Impact of Mobile-First Web Design on Desktop.
Try not to be alarmed by the headline. They key phrase here is content dispersion, an effect of scaling up the mobile ... # 21:14 [snarfed] Maybe your theme is rendering comments itself and not letting the plugin do its thing? [nsmsn] joined the channel
# 21:20 [nsmsn] It's possible. Not sure what I should look into first. I am auto-approving webmentions from brid.gy # 21:32 [snarfed] right, no, this isn't at webmention receive/accept time, it's at rendering, I'd guess # 21:50 gRegor "This plugin has been closed as of April 4, 2023 and is not available for download" [nsmsn] joined the channel
# 21:53 gRegor Should be fine, that functionality is now in the main Webmention plugin # 22:10 [snarfed] I expect it's a bad interaction between your theme and the plugin # 22:15 GWG Bridgy Response is weird.... unless it is somehow picking up the wrong property... I can look into that if I have source and target when I get home # 22:21 GWG I think if the content is Bridgy Response it is using the title tag of the page in parsing... which should only happen if there is no mf2.. but possibly a merge logic issue [nsmsn] joined the channel
# 22:32 [snarfed] nsmsn one thing you can do is look at those comments in your wordpress admin dashboard. if you click "Edit" on one of them, do you see the real content there? if you then scroll down, do you see a "Webmention Data" box with more info? # 22:36 [nsmsn] Yes, I see "Bridgy Response" in the content, then Commentype: Like in the Webmention data box # 22:37 [nsmsn] I'm using a WP.org directory theme (Jace) plus Indieblocks.xyz plugin to add mf2 markup to my posts # 22:46 [nsmsn] But it only applies a screen-reader-text class to the H1 # 22:50 [snarfed] ok! then it sounds like the plugin is working right, and your theme is probably overriding it and rendering the comments itself, badly [nsmsn] joined the channel
# 23:42 GWG [nsmsn]: Can you send me the Bridgy link and the url it is a comment on for inspection? I just got home and want to check some things
