# 17:39 gRegor Have there been any known issues with WP Webmention plugin repeatedly sending webmentions? I've been getting a lot from webmention.isbrill.com. I've reached out to Matt who runs the site, figured I'd check in here too though.
# 17:39 gRegor Timing isn't consistent, which seems in line with the WP lazy cron, presuming that's how they're triggered. Usually getting a few each hour.
# 17:41 gRegor UA on the requests is "WordPress/6.8.1". If possible, might be a good idea to add the webmention plugin version as well.
# 17:50 GWG I use a scheduled CRON because I don't want to wait
# 17:53 gRegor Have there been known issues with it repeatedly sending?
# 17:53 gRegor I am replying to them and suggesting they join the chat here too, to help debug
# 17:57 gRegor Ok, thanks. Is there a flag that gets set in the db once they're sent? Maybe that isn't updating for them for some reason, so it keeps retrying
# 19:00 GWG Yes, there is, but if something updates the post...
# 19:08 gRegor Does it automatically re-send each time the post is updated, or is it a UI choice they have to make?
# 19:09 gRegor That might explain some of it, it is a directory page with a lot of links, but I doubt they're updating it this frequently.
# 19:12 GWG gRegor: It does it every time the page is updated
# 19:12 gRegor Makes sense, thanks for the info! Will see what Matt finds
