Parallelism of display with common Jetpack plugins · Issue #29 · dshanske/syndication-links https://github.com/dshanske/syndication-links/issues/29

I was looking at some CSS and noticed a few things that could be tweaked on the output.

As I suppose is reasonably common, many people on WP will be using one or more Jetpack features in addition to Syndication-Links. (I suspect many Gen 2-4 IndieWeb users will rely on Jetpack for syndication for its ease of use.) As a result, it would be nice if Syndication Links had a (default) parallel structure and mark up to "Like", "Share" and "Related Posts" within Jetpack.

To do this I'd suggest something like the following modified structure which Jetpack uses:
```
<div class="sharedaddy">
::before
<h3 class="relsyn sd-title">Syndicated to:</h3> //or whatever the programmed option is
<ul>
<li>Syndicated names/icons, etc...</li>
<li>Syndicated names/icons, etc...</li>
</ul>
</div>
```
Naturally the styling classes should be something relsyn-related with similar (or exact default) mark up as "sharedaddy" and "sd-title". If I have the patience shortly, I'll dig through the dozens of .css files jetpack throws in to style these and do a PR if you don't suspect any issues with your current roadmap.

Making the syndicated icons the same 34x34 px of the "Share" icons would be nice, but for UX/UI reasons, keeping them smaller to encourage sharing over clicking to view syndicated versions would probably be preferable to most users. Thoughts?

Since, it's early days for indieweb, is it worth wrapping the text "Syndicated to" (as an example) with a url to indieweb.org/POSSE the way that Webmention Form plugin links to WebMention to allow for some additional publicity? Perhaps those who see this functionality on sites will be prompted to want to get it themselves?

Additionally/separately, is it possible to hook Syndication links (as a default) in above all three of these common plugins so that it appears at the top of the list? (IndieWeb > Jetpack) Alternately, providing a setting value to allow placement in this hierarchy may be nice (for the future).

@alexjvasquez Let's chat when you have a moment about potential locations for IndieWeb meetup (310) 751-0548. I'd love to hear suggestions.

Kyle Mahan: Bridging the IndieWeb Generation Gap

 

From an indieweb perspective, it's probably far easier, more productive, and better interface hypothes.is both accepted the webmention protocol as well as sending webmentions. This way one could post their comments (highlights may be slightly tougher) directly to their Known (or other site) and the webmention protocol could handle the posting to hypothes.is. Similarly when one annotates a page, hypothes.is could webmention the page, so the post author/site admin would be aware that the page was marked up.

 
 
 

If Neocities is anything like what I expect, I'm definitely going to have a website there!! https://neocities.org

 

Andreas, I'm pretty sure my experiment with OwnYourGram was well after I updated to 0.9.2. I never worked on it further to get brid.gy to push the comments/likes back to my Known install, but did spend some time to get OwnYourGram to work with WordPress and eventually have brid.gy backfeed the comments/likes from Instagram.

Ultimately I decided for data portability reasons that it was far easier (and prettier) to import all of my old instagram posts into my WordPress install where I know the code base a bit better. I just finished importing all of my instagram activity to my main site over the weekend, but it'll take some more work to get them to display the way I want them to along with the correct microformats2 markup.

For Instagram/Known, if I recall, you have to correctly specify either http or https properly to make sure the two link up properly, which was an early problem I had. I also had issues with trying to use two sites simultaneously, but apparently putting the URLS of your sites into your bio on instagram works just fine for authentication.

I don't think I went so far as to register my instagram account for known with brid.gy, but I could dig back into it if you need some help. I need to document some of the process for some user manual work I've promised to do for Known.

You could also try the IRC channel: https://indiewebcamp.com/IRC

 

I've been meaning to do it for a while, but I'm now POSSEing my site http://boffosocko.com to Medium https://medium.com/@chrisaldrich

 

@kevinmarks @dwhly I mentioned webmention to them a few months back during the @genius "scandal" in hopes of implementation
