hoshI really dislike WP's Gutenberg editor. I can't find the stuff I need, like how to change the URL after publishing a post. The html coder appears as a tiny block in the middle of the screen, and more. I don't think they are going to win many fans with this, and should not have tried to take it mainstream without ironing out more of the bugs first. Other WP block editors like Elegant Theme's Divi editor is much more polished and I think there are other successful examples. For now, I've gone back to the old editor
Released #Pterotype version 1.1.1! Sync blog posts and comments from your WordPress blog with Mastodon and let users comment on posts by replying to the Mastodon thread!
Pterotype is available in the WordPress plugin repository and I'd appreciate it if you signed up as a beta tester at https://getpterotype.com/beta
I'm beginning to think that #WordPress is somewhat overkill for my #indieweb use case - very tempted to revert to just using #Known and then POSSE that to #Microblog and #Mastodon
I've settled on a name for my #ActivityPub#WordPress plugin - #Pterotype! It's an early precursor to the typewriter, which seemed appropriate for WordPress.
Honestly though, the main reason I chose it is now it can have a cute Pterodactyl logo. That will go nicely with Mastodon's prehistoric theme!
Now I just need to find someone who can draw a cute pterodactyl...
Speaking of my blog: at some point, I turned on an option to give it a "mobile-friendly" design, which does look good (if a little dated) on mobile, but does not at all resemble the theme you see when viewing it on a PC. Since most modern themes are mobile-friendly, I no longer need this feature. I'd like to turn it off so the design is more coherent across devices, but I can't find the option to deactivate this setting!
Any #WordPress experts in the house who can help me turn this setting off?
