Webmentions for WordPress 4.0.3 Released

Yesterday, version 4.0.3 of the webmention plugin for WordPress was released. Notably, this includes fixes for two issues.

  • The auto approve functionality was not functioning for some time. Props to Jeremy Felt for identifying where the issue was.
  • The Avatar code was not identifying scenarios where Semantic Linkbacks turned a webmention into a comment, due to the fact that the comment type for comments is actually an empty string.

As always, thanks to Matthias Pfefferle for being the project author. I do not think he gets enough credit for dealing with all the pull requests I send him, or for the many Indieweb or Indieweb adjacent plugins he has created.

My day job is in training for an airline. I also develop Indieweb WordPress plugins so that others can take control of their online identity.
