starrwulfe oh wow!
#
starrwulfe For anyone who cares, I'm testing the limits of Jan Boddez's indieblocks plugin with inline webmention replies.
#
starrwulfe Start with the the original test post and read the comments:

starrwulfe which was also a mention as well. Somehow this one act built a web of trackable links that built the conversation verbatim with mentions on all three posts.
#
starrwulfe The case for ad-hoc multiparticipant comment threading here.

#
[snarfed] starrwulfe cool! curious to hear your thoughts once you've used it enough
#
[snarfed] it'd take work to migrate but I like the idea of actually getting onto blocks with proper mf2 and off my current ugly hacked unmaintained uf2 plugin

#
starrwulfe Is there a proper way I should be formatting my post in the editor initially when using it so I don't get other elements "bleeding" through?
#
GWG Did you ever test the Bluesky integration in Syndication Links, by the way?
#
starrwulfe yep! You can see it in the throwback post I just did in the main channel
#
starrwulfe Works great!
#
GWG I wonder why it isn't working for me correctly then
#
GWG Yours is showing the full version in Bluesky. Mine is only showing the link
#
starrwulfe Oh snarfed, I just realized what you were talking about-- Sorry, the DST change got me all 🥴
#
IWDiscord <s​tarrwulfe>
#
starrwulfe I use block based posting only in the /notes and /likes section of my blog and stick to GWG's post kinds plug in and the old-school editor elsewhere. But the plug in itself will also enable inline comment replies in your comments section however you use it. So if that's all you want, go for it
#
starrwulfe Nah-- it's only showing the link
#
Loqi Nah has -1 karma over the last year
#
starrwulfe https://bsky.app/profile/starrwulfe.xyz/post/3knesdna5fw2e
#
GWG I have to figure out why
#
GWG It's the same code I was using to generate the rest.
#
starrwulfe I believe it has something to do with how it needs to be formatted in Bskys markup
#
GWG I thought [snarfed] would have handled that on the conversion. Maybe not for Micropub
#
GWG I'll have to ask him to confirm whether it is me or him that has the issue.
#
starrwulfe it may be just passing the raw link with no expansion. The other thing is how the text isn't marked up-- there's also a separate markup method to create link cards, which is what I want so I can use all 300 characters for the post
#
GWG Well, the Micropub method actually tries to generate the content.
#
GWG I may just need more info to customize it.
#
GWG I based it on the old Twitter code before I took that out, just with 300 characrers.
#
starrwulfe Not sure if this is gospel but CoPilot says:
#
IWDiscord <s​tarrwulfe>
#
starrwulfe Use the models.AppBskyEmbedExternal.Main method to create a Link Card.
#
starrwulfe In a typical post, you can utilize the send\_post method and specify the created Link Card as an optional argument called embed.

#
starrwulfe Create a Link Card:
#
starrwulfe Looks like micropub is fighting the PDS for generation rights
#
GWG I'll see if I can figure something out.
#
starrwulfe Manton over at microblog does it differently and doesn't seem to put a link anywhere unless it goes over the limit much to my chagrin. The endgoal there is to eventually *be* a PDS though; its only a matter of time before a PDS plugin happens on WP though, like ActivityPub.
#
GWG Well, we'll see if someone writes one.
#
GWG But, the link logic is customizable in Syndication Links, since I'm generating the content.
#
GWG I should review all that code
#
[snarfed] hi guys! let me know if you want me to look at anything here
#
Loqi definitely
#
starrwulfe Ahh yeah. In any case, Snarfed can tell you how it should be looking before Bridgy gets it
#
GWG [snarfed]: Is there any reason on the Bluesky Micropub end why it would only show the link and not the content? A

#
starrwulfe (...did Loqi just dig through Bsky and pull those links outta there?)
#
GWG I'm assuming I'm responsible, but the same code is used to generate Mastodon, and previously Twitter, and it worked then.
#
GWG I might start storing my output to test what's going on.
#
GWG It is probably my code though. I usually assume it is.
#
[snarfed] GWG I'll look
