TIL: Looks like, if you’re looking to display (or otherwise use) post meta in WordPress’ block editor (but not ever have it updated by the front end), register_rest_field()
is your friend, rather than register_post_meta()
.

Was playing with the ActivityPub plugin some more.
Figured out the “content (template)” and object filters.
I can set post privacy based on category, for instance.
Or display a title and permalink for posts, but the entire post content for simple, plain-text notes.
This is good.

So, I just moved this site over to a WordPress Mulitisite install, and almost certainly broke a couple things. A few other things, like scrobbles, have been temporarily disabled. (Scrobbles in particular were sort of dead anyway, although I plan to revive them one day.)

Tried deploying to WP.org straight from—I know—GitHub and it seems to work, yay!
I’m always super late at adopting these things. (And generally stay away from hypes. I don’t use
npm
or Tailwind or SCSS. No GameStop stock for me. I use a 9-year-old Windows laptop. And so on.) -

Just thinking … If you only used IndieBlocks’ “notes” for plain-text statuses, and only used its “like” custom post type for bookmarks (and renamed its slug to
bookmarks
) and replaced the Like block in its template for a Bookmark block … then you’d have added both a Twitter clone and a Delicious clone to your WordPress blog.Anyway, that’ll be all.

I’ve previously written about https://build.boddez.net, where I set up, using as few plugins as possible, an “IndieWeb-compatible” microblog.
Back then, I used WordPress’ own Twenty Twenty-Three. These last few days, though, I’ve been adapting TT3 to reflect my actual site. TL;DR: I created a new, minimalist block theme! It can be found, for now, at https://github.com/janboddez/janboddez. (I know, shouldn’t have used my GitHub username, but, well, naming things is hard!)
