gRegor

• mentioned to Al how I use granary to convert microformats2 into Atom, makes it easier than managing Atom feeds myself. Example with my notes feed: https://gregorlove.com/notes.atom which redirects to granary, which is converting directly from the HTML microformats2 https://gregorlove.com/notes/

David Shanske was working on trying to fix Micropub WordPress plugin issues. Pending feedback.

• Updated Location plugin so can filter by location and then only see venues in that area, otherwise venue list is really long.
• WordPress Webmention plugin now stores a copy of the avatar, previously were hotlinked, so older posts have missing avatars with the default generic avatar.
• Fixed markup on homepage

Customizing wiki:

• Example: User:Gregorlove.com/vector.css
• Discussion: MediaWiki_customizations#Wiki_is_unusable_on_mobile

Angelo Gladding worked on adding the u-url in the sidebar of posts: https://ragt.ag/2023/12/25/a3
