We are having a discussion about #HardyPress (a #WordPress-based static site generator), and the creator of that service stopped by to chat: https://talkgroup.xyz/t/hardypress-using-wordpress-as-a-static-site-generator/499/5?u=maiki

I followed up with some observations. So interesting!

Feel free to join that Discourse (I run it), or let me know if you have a comment or question for Claudio. ^_^

Anyone feel like adding Mastodon support to Wordpress' main social media sharing plugin?

Look no further! You can check out this issue and help out get Mastodon out there!

@xmanmonk I am looking for more work, both gigs and maybe employed. I am so very close to spinning up my own remote work job listing site because the ones I use suck.

But also, we gotta stick together, right? So when I see someone looking for work, I think of what we can do together to bring in some monies.

For instance, I like hosting #WordPress! So sometimes I white label hosting for other devs, so they can deliver full service to their clients.

Let us know what you could use help with. ^_^

@satchmoz yeah, but #Discourse does that, like really well. Especially when integrated with #WordPress.

Building static sites means having to know all about Disqus and alternatives, and I am convinced Discourse is by far the winner, if not a little resource heavy (but I mean, it starts at $10 a month for a VPS, but certainly easier than Talk as is).

But I need to show how it works, otherwise these publishers aren't gonna listen. ^_^

Ah damn, #VirtualBox is blacklisted from #Parabola. I use #VVV as part of my #WordPress dev setup, so that could be a deal breaker for me...

I really ought to look into VirtualBox and figure out where that lands, freedom-wise, and what the alternatives are for #Vagrant.

For #reference: use CDN for serving casual API endpoints or feeds.

I've been doing that with #WordPress to pull in data when #goHugo builds. "Pulls" data from a dinky site on a shared host, no prob.

@schestowitz it is really dissonant for me to hear them refer to WordPress.com as "WordPress". I know that probably seems pedantic to folks that don't develop for it, but the .com really does make it this whole other concept in my head. ^_^

#WordPress.

@paulfree14 thanks for the pointer, I've wanted to play with #hubzilla for a while, but it wasn't on my radar.

But! I still want it to be #WordPress. Why? Because I am a WP integrator and hoster, and I want my clients to silently get federated and enjoy it as another feature of WordPress: it just works with the free social web!

At one time I was able to sub to my site and comment with #StatusNet (pre- #GNUSocial).

My number one wish for #Mastodon/#Fediverse is to use my #WordPress blog to interact with it.

I promise, I'll keep my existing account! I just don't want to depend on plain text when I could be using the hot new #memex linking everyone is talking about. Also, I'd like to have an easier publishing flow.

@nydel one such system is a #WordPress plugin at

Couldn't figure out why a company kept posting welding jobs tagged as #WordPress to #LinkedIn... then I noticed this line:

> Follow $COMPANY Careers on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google+, Pinterest, WordPress (Career Blog) and LinkedIn!

How do we have AI that can win at Go, but the One Big Job Site has crap search?!

Four out of five #remote jobs on LinkedIn are postings with a sentence that says, "This is not a remote position."

My next project is definitely a better job board system for remote workers.

But in the meantime, where is the place to get remote work? I am a #WordPress developer, webcrafter and IT specialist, if that matters.

@tomasino @xmanmonk I am also a Hugo user! ^_^

I am fairly active in the forums (https://discourse.gohugo.io/u/maiki/activity), so if anyone has #Hugo questions or thoughts, let's hear them!

I went from a #WordPress site to 2 WordPress sites and numerous Hugo sites, and I like building with both. Some notes at https://talkgroup.xyz/t/converting-wordpress-to-hugo/389?u=maiki.

And for those really nerdy folks, I've been working on getting Hugo to generate #Gopher maps as a custom output, so look forward to that!

An answer about Node.js and task runners turned into a mini-tutorial on developing #WordPress code, and have to deploy it: https://wpchat.com/t/networks-themes-node-module-bloat/2314/2?u=maiki ^_^

Wrote about my experience with #WordPress #multisite, and if it should be used for general hosting of client sites: https://wpchat.com/t/starting-off-with-indivudual-sites-and-migrating-to-an-mu-install/2306/2?u=maiki

I suggest against it. ^_^

@xmanmonk wanted to point out that it was *not* #WordPress site owners targeted, but rather Chrome users + Cloudflare customers.

No doubt many WordPress sites were caught up in that, but nothing in the article even mentions WordPress (WordFence is a WordPress security firm, but this article is general).

WordPress gets a bad rap because of how ubiquitous it is, so I want to clarify. ^_^

I just gave a surprisingly detailed reply to setting up new #WordPress sites: https://wpchat.com/t/how-do-you-setup-your-base-wp-installation-for-cloning-to-save-time-setting-up-new-sites/2296/2?u=maiki

In it I mention #VVV and #VV, #WPCLI, #WPPusher, and good ol' #scp.

If you have any questions about those, let me know! ^_^

@aldersprig Glad to here it! I track the #WordPress tag, so encourage other folks to tag their WP questions, and I will likely respond. ^_^

Just when I don't think anything in the #WordPress world is going to surprise me...
