Hey @jgmac1106, I got your message that you accidentally sent to my other account. I definitely will add my business site to the indieweb.org wiki, though I don't think it will be running Sempress for much longer; my sighted assistant keeps pointing out visual flaws in the CSS; says it looks "terrible", though won't lend any details. (she oftentimes forgets I can't see.)

@cambridgeport90 are you on @microdotblog? The screen reading community there loves SemPress as the go to standard for accessibility in WordPress.. maybe ask for help @arush helps me .things broken in SemPress are things broken in WP core

@jgmac1106 @arush My friend said it's some CSS issue. Something with the theme. I'll have to ask her what she meant. and I should definitely get on to that site. At the moment I don't have a presence there, I don't think.

@cambridgeport90 @arush also tell your friend @pfefferle will respond to any issue very promptly.

Especially with accessibility. Don't know of a more empathetic designer.

I can help file a GitHub issue or pass a message on to Mathias in #IndieWeb chat... Or you can stop in and let them know.

@jgmac1106 @arush @pfefferle it's definitely not an accessibility issue. The issue is clearly visual. It's on the inside of people notice, but only one person ever told me about, so I can give you more info once I find out from her what exactly it was she was talking about.

@arush @jgmac1106 Thanks for this; I'll be putting up my site this weekend, hopefully, so should be a fun adventure. This sounds oddly familiar, but dang me if I can figure out why.

@cambridgeport90 Very cool. I'm still experimenting with the federation part, but if I can get this working I found a plugin that will syndicate to the fediverse and pull the replies back in as comments.

@arush Which plugin are you suing for that? I would be curious, as well as whether or not it works on multiauthor sites. And will have to compare those two themes.

@arush And also, how do you personally manage widgets on pages? For instance, I'm trying to create a H-card for my community's site, but that's the only widget I want on the home page. Have you found a nice widget management technique? Was thinking of either Widget Logic or Widget context.

@cambridgeport90 @arush would love for you folks to try github.com/pfefferle/Autonomie @pfefferle been working hard on that, and you can use the github update tools

@cambridgeport90 @arush Getting just the h-card widget should be easy .and shouldn't require any plugins

though if it is a multiuser site indieauth will not work (no biggie) and you would make an h-card for the org (the widget won't work ..I think..as it is tied to user profile)

You could just use the html widget and hand write the organization h-card. Happy to help...

Really not sure on the h-card widget with multi-user site, to find out just go to the main user profile

@jgmac1106 I was going to handwrite it anyway since none of the content pages on that have sidebars, either, so it works. Thanks for the hand!

@cambridgeport90 once you are done we can throw a few posts through parsers and see what happens

@jgmac1106 This is going to be interesting. though who knows, the theme on that site might kill some stuff, but not sure yet. I'm going to be using Enfold up there.

@cambridgeport90 actually pretty timely we want to look at a theme and collect posts with and without the microformats plugin installed.

See if we can work on parser capabilities as well

@jgmac1106 Re: the HCard widget: The widget will pull from the default user, but each user/author page will also contain HCard info if that info is configured in the user's profile. the indieweb plugin will support multi-author sites if that option is selected.

@cambridgeport90 Managing widgets is done most cleanly if the theme has widget-ready templates. The Twentysixteen indieweb fork also has a HCard template I believe, which will display an HCard for the default user I believe. In your case the HCard would need to be for the organization, which means the org would need its user profile filled in. YOu could also manually add it using the HTML on a page, which would avoid widgets and would allow you to have complete control over the accessibility.
