Only a noob question because you asked it via a Known site! ;)
But it is a good one. Child themes only really need two files: the style.css and a functions.php. In the style.css file there's a block of text at the top with details about the theme. One of the lines has the name "Template" and its value is the case-sensitive name of the parent theme's folder in your /wp-content/themes folder. Thus to have your child theme pointing at the correct parent, you'll want to modify this "Template" line appropriately.
FYI: If it helps, Smashing Magazine has a pretty thorough article on WordPress Child Themes and what they're doing and how: https:/
@andrea It looks like you're missing the Semantic Linkbacks plugin for WordPress. That should make your facepiles have actual faces and display much better. https:/
How are you posting to Known? Using Quill or another micropub application? Do you have the WithKnown Twitter plugin installed? https:/
I'm sure many in the IndieWeb chat (Slack, IRC, Web, etc.) can give you help if you need it. There's a main room, and #WordPress and #Known specific channels. https:/
I'm out at the moment but am happy to help more later if you need it.
@Chronotope @palewire Here's a thread & code for an @internetarchive tweak for @WithKnown CMS (php):

Since you own the domain and the content, there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to export that content and move it to your other domain and do a 301 redirect from the original (even if you move hosts). Things *can* last on the web if you want them to, and it's even easier if you own them compared with corporate social sites you don't own or have control over.
Known has a reasonable export set up and I suspect that Reclaim would help you transition... Good luck!
@HorribleSanity makes me wonder at the linguistic roots of the word Hallowe'en. Howe is it not more commonly known?
Khürt, I've figured it out then. I'd seen the issue I initially thought you were having a few dozen times.
Your actual issue is far more subtle, but is a known issue with WordPress. Because the title of my original post contains the glasses emoji 👓 (indicating it's a "read" post, or something that I read and made some sort of comment on), WordPress "eats" or filters out all of the data you're trying to save. If you put the URL in again and then retrieve the data, but this time delete out just that pesky emoji, it should save properly as you expect it. Let me know if that doesn't work.
I've noticed the issue before and reported it officially here: https:/
I also thought it was perhaps that I wasn't following either @ryan@snarfed.org or @me@snarfed.org (through my native mastodon.social account), but that doesn't seem to be the issue. In fact, it won't let me subscribe to either as a stand-alone instance and gives me a "422Validation failed: Username has already been taken" error when I try.
I'm sure it's early days yet, but Kudos on what you've got working so far! I'll take a stab at using it all with Known in a few days as well, though I've got some quirky issues with my likes and reposts there that may need to be ironed out on my install first.
The best source of information is from Known itself: https:/
You can also find their documentation here: http:/
Yes, it's a pared down version of Known that I set up as a sandbox for people to experiment around a bit with. If you're interested, feel free to spin up your own instance.
Jeremy, I think this was a known issue with the WordPress Semantic Linkbacks pluin and thought it got address/fixed in a recent update. If not, do file a bug at https:/
Also interesting, it looks like Independent Publisher (theme) isn't outputting a permalink for the comments on Among The Stones either. If they're webmentions, all the URLs point to the locations of of comment originals, which makes it harder to target individual comments with fragmentions.
@jeremyjmonroe Have you enabled @withknown crosspost so I can post to my site & send it to known.cloud? https:/
I don't think Known is providing free accounts anymore, but I'll add my +1 to how awesome it is. I also use it as my daily digital online commonplace book for almost everything I do online.
@AneliseHShrout You can find the IRC/Slack/etc details here: http:/

Jack, Your response (above on your site) is a good example of watching what is going on and knowing what your site can and can't do.
Because you put your response directly into the comment box on your site (ostensibly in a general sense to the main post rather than to my response), your site didn't send me a webmention for it and so I didn't know you had responded except that I happened to come back to your post. If you visit it, you'll see that your reply doesn't show up on http:/
The better method using Known would have been for you to have clicked the permalink on your site for my comment (the date of my comment or the name of my site) that would have gone to my original, you could then have used the bookmarklet for Known (found at https:/
Because I'm replying to both your post and mine, it should show up via webmention on both. The manual comment box on Known is really only for people whose sites don't support Webmention. Some people actually disable the comment box functionality and only receive Webmentions as a means of preventing spam comments.
In an ideal world, your comment box would send both Webmentions and salmentions to maintain the integrity of the comment thread. Since it doesn't (yet) then you need to do that manually, especially if you want me to see your reply.
Hopefully all this makes some sense...
Here's a photo post of some of the UI that may make it make a bit more sense: http:/
@nlafferty I am still actively using @withknown, both personally and professionally. The private communities I set up are still actively being used by many in the group long after the original course was over. A few have set up their own individual sites and migrated their content out as well.
Another option that may be interesting is setting up a community space that people can be a part of natively or which they can have their own individual sites and syndicate their content to it as necessary or desirable.
If you'd like to chat about it I'm happy to do so via phone/internet/other. I suspect you might find some value in conversing with the folks at Known directly as well.
