I wonder if someone have Webmention implemented on Ghost. You can see it in action scrolling down here: [image] Improving Twitter Embeds using the Twitter API For a long time now, I've been frustrated by how slow the official twitter embed is. Any page where I've embedded a tweet, becom…

That’s exciting! Looks like there was a good amount of activity in that implementation if Feb-Mar of this year, but has since been left alone. It seems, looking through the code, that webmentions are being received and stored. Does anyone know what the status is for webmentions being made availabl…

Is there any update on webmention implimentation? I set up Brid.gy over the weekend to start capturing webmentions from Mastodon, and it would be great to impliment them into the Ghost post in leu of comments. However, I’m not sure where these webmentions are being stored or what I can do with them…

Good point, sorry for missing that! Yeah, it seems like the incoming webmentions aren’t really “usable” so far, given that there is no way of accessing them from the frontend. The mentions should be captured though, as far as I understand the implementations. There should be notifications about me…

Oh, thanks for your following up. I hope that will be added soon because that will improve all our genuine engagement over the entire internet :raised_hands: We really want to use Social Media organically and can’t wait to meet another communities for genuine interaction between Ghost’s folks!

Yeah, looking forward to being able to use the webmentions beyond reccomending publications.

Bringing this back up. While Ghost’s webmention implimentation leaves a lot to be desired, it is capturing the webmentions. Does anyone know where those are being stored? I’ve played with the file system but can’t find anything and I don’t know enough about SQL to go looking there. I ask because I …
