Troubleshooting a WordPress Webmention → http://Micro.blog problem. Seeing a reply to a reply not include the same u-in-reply-to as the Webmention target param when there’s a threaded conversation. The Webmention target is the root blog post, but the reply is to another reply on that post, so things don’t match up. Does that make sense? More details: https://help.micro.blog/t/webmentions-not-working/2066/12

It is really hard to explain this. Basically wondering if there’s an issue with threaded comments or if a Webmention receiver is expected to do more work to verify the link by walking up the chain of comments.

yeah that seems wrong. for a wm for a reply, target and u-in-reply-to should match. was the target URL elsewhere in the source post?

I was going to say no, but now I’ve confused myself trying to unravel this. Checking again.

afaik threaded reply handling in general is entirely outside core wm and mf2, afaik they only directly handle direct replies. threads are designed and prototyped in salmentions but not widely supported
#
[manton]
Thanks. I think this might be another issue.

For example, I’m noticing that not all the comments have `e-content` . It gets confused when trying to figure out where the text for the reply is.

If anyone wants to follow along, here’s the MF2 output for the page. Looks like an `h-entry` and then a few `h-cite`, but not for all comments. http://pin13.net/mf2/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fislandinthenet.com%2Fwordpress-activitypub%2F%23comment-31649

[manton]: Do you strip fragments and query strings?
#
[manton]
I don’t think so.

[manton]: WordPress comment permalinks use them, which is why I asked

GWG unrelated, I'm seeing an odd bug with the current micropub + synd links (+ webmention) plugins where mp-syndicate-to[]=bridgy-fed works for likes and reposts but not for replies
#
[snarfed]
is that known or does it sound familiar at all?
#
GWG
[snarfed]: No, first report
