I set up a page to display Webmentions of this type but ... Webmentions are not being displayed. I don't think it would have mattered. Akismet would have automatically approved your Webmention and I would not have seen it anyway. The only reason I know you sent a Webmention is because I saw them on the dashboard of webmention.io. Sometimes when I send pingbacks they are not received at the other website and I can't receive pingbacks from that website.

I don't mean to sound like a broken record, but as you know, I am frustrated by "it doesn't always work" when using the IndieWeb plugins. It can be challenging to troubleshoot if the problem is the theme, another plugin, server issues, etc. In the past few months, I have chosen to ignore the problems because the technical issues use up free time that I could be doing something else.

IndieWeb Update

Reads, Listens, Watches, and Editable Webmention Types and Avatars in the IndieWeb WordPress Suite by Chris AldrichChris Aldrich (Chris Aldrich | BoffoSocko)

Recently David Shanske and I started a podcast, and he thought it would be useful if his site could accept listen to posts and show them visually within his comments section just like these replies, bookmarks, and mentions. Thus over the past month, he’s added code to the Semantic Linkbacks Plugin to add the functionality for these types of posts to properly render showing facepiles for listens, reads, and watches.

Besides website security, making sure I get the latest features of the IndieWeb WordPress Suite is why I have my WordPress plugins set to auto-update. I am using the entire IndieWeb WordPress Suite. I love the new features!

An Indieweb Podcast: Episode 4 “Webmentions and Privacy”

An Indieweb Podcast: Episode 4 – Webmentions and Privacy by David ShanskeDavid Shanske from David Shanske

This week, Chris Aldrich and I got together a bit late…so I was a bit more quiet than normal.
With the GDPR regulations coming into effect in Europe May 25th, privacy seems to be on everyone’s mind. This week, we tackle what webmentions are, using them for backfeed, and the privacy implications....

I listened to (and enjoyed) the podcast last weekend but never got around to responding with a Listen Webmention to test the feature.
