I had no idea this kind of stuff meanwhile gets taught at Harvard! 😮

I forked a WordPress plugin from my local community and have turned it into a plugin to run a dedicated RSS feed for Micro.blog on any WordPress site. For anyone interested: github.com/glueckpress/micro.blog

So let me wrap this up: micro.blog: (“timeline”) posts of people I follow + myself, including @ replies. micro.blog/[name]: (“profile”) all of my posts, incl. external feeds, no @ replies. [name].micro.blog: (“site”) hosted micro blog, no external feeds, no @ replies.

Ah, apparently longer posts go to my blog, but not to the timeline.
Caspar
@cas
GOT IT! 💡 micro.blog/[name] is my profile where all the content from my various feeds gets collected. Whereas [name].micro.blog is my hosted micro blog which obviously does not import anything from my self-hosted WordPress blog. HA! 😅

Alright, so posts from my dedicated RSS feed on my blog show up at micro.blog/cas, but not at cas.micro.blog. 🤔

@cas Confirmed, use a different theme if you want Markdown. Works great in the timeline, though, and in replies.
Caspar
@cas
Alright, still figuring this stuff out, ignore me. :) Markdown seems to work, but not in the theme I currently use?

… is this thing on?
Howdy, Micro.blog! Excited you’re here finally! Posting a random photo just for sake of color.

@flo Yay! Nice pictures there, btw! Do you post images from iOS only, or did I miss a feature on the web interface?

Any #WordPress folks here, btw? 🙃

Alright, this is nice. So far I have verified my site and added a category feed to my account here. Does it take a while until posts from my self-hosted feed show up here?
