"text": "Forcing webmentions for conversations on websites that don\u2019t support Webmention\nWithin the IndieWeb community there is a process called backfeed which is the process of syndicating\u00a0interactions on your syndicated (POSSE) copies back\u00a0(AKA\u00a0reverse syndicating) to your original posts. As it\u2019s commonly practiced, often with the ever helpful Brid.gy service, it is almost exclusively done with social media silos like Twitter, Instagram, Flickr, Github, and Mastodon. This is what allows replies to my content that I\u2019ve syndicated to Twitter, for example, to come back and live here on my website.\nWhy not practice this with other personal websites? This may become increasingly important in an ever growing and revitalizing blogosphere as people increasingly eschew corporate social sites and their dark patterns of tracking, manipulative algorithmic feeds, and surveillance capitalism. It\u2019s also useful for sites whose owners may not have the inclination, time, effort, energy or expertise to support the requisite technology.\nI\u2019ve done the following general reply pattern using what one might call manual backfeed quite a few times now (and I\u2019m sure a few others likely have too), but I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve seen it documented anywhere as a common IndieWeb practice. As a point of fact, my method outlined below is really only half-manual because I\u2019m cleverly leveraging incoming webmentions to reduce some of the work.\nManually syndicating my replies\nSometimes when using my own website to reply to another that doesn\u2019t support the W3C\u2019s Webmention spec, I\u2019ll manually syndicate (a fancy way of saying cut-and-paste) my response to the website I\u2019m responding to. In these cases I\u2019ll either put the URL of my response into the body of my reply, or in sites like WordPress that ask for my website URL, I\u2019ll use that field instead. Either way, my response appears on their site with my reply URL in it (sometimes I may have to wait for my comment to be moderated if the receiving site does that).\nHere\u2019s the important part: Because my URL appears on the receiving site (sometimes wrapped as a link on either my name or the date/time stamp depending on the site\u2019s user interface choices), I can now use it to force future replies on that site back to my original via webmention! My site will look for a URL pointing back to it to verify an incoming webmention on my site.\nReplies from a site that doesn\u2019t support sending Webmentions\nOnce my comment appears on the receiving site, and anyone responds to it, I can take the URL (with fragment) for those responses, and manually input them into my original post\u2019s URL reply box. This will allow me to manually force a webmention to my post that will show up at minimum as a vanilla mention on my website.\u00a0\n\n(Note, if your site doesn\u2019t have a native box like this for forcing manual webmentions, you might try external tools like Aaron Parecki\u2019s Telegraph or Kevin Mark\u2019s Mention.Tech, which are almost as easy. For those who are more technical, cURL is an option as well.)\nDepending on the microformats mark up of the external site, the mention may or may not have an appropriate portion for the response and/or an avatar/name. I can then massage those on my own site (one of the many benefits of ownership!) so that the appropriate data shows, and I can change the response type from a \u201cmention\u201d to a \u201creply\u201d (or other sub-types as appropriate). Et voil\u00e0, with minimal effort, I\u2019ve got a native looking reply back on my site from a site that does not support Webmention! This is one of the beautiful things of even the smallest building-blocks within the independent web or as a refrain some may wish to sing\u2013\u201csmall pieces, loosely joined\u201d!\nThis method works incredibly well with WordPress websites in particular. In almost all cases the comments on them will have permalink URLs (with fragments) to target the individual pieces, often they\u2019ve got reasonable microformats for specifying the correct h-card details, and, best of all, they have functionality that will send me an email notification when others reply to my portion of the conversation, so I\u2019m actually reminded to force the webmentions manually.\nAn Illustrative Example\nAs an example, I posted on my website that I\u2019d read an article on Matt Maldre\u2019s site along with a short comment. Since Matt (currently) doesn\u2019t support either incoming or outgoing webmentions, I manually cut-and-pasted my reply to the comment section on his post. I did the same thing again later with an additional comment on my site to his (after all, why start a new separate conversation thread when I can send webmentions from my comments section and keep the context?).\nMatt later approved my comments and posted his replies on his own website. Because his site is built on WordPresss, I got email notifications about his replies, and I was able to use the following URLs with the appropriate fragments of his comments in my manual webmention box:\nhttps://www.spudart.org/blog/xeroxing-your-face/#comment-43843\nhttps://www.spudart.org/blog/xeroxing-your-face/#comment-43844\nAfter a quick \u201cmassage\u201d to change them from \u201cmentions\u201d into \u201creplies\u201d and add his gravatar, they now live on my site where I expect them and in just the way I\u2019d expect them to look if he had Webmention support on his website.\nI\u2019ll mention that, all of this could be done in a very manual cut-and-paste manner\u2013even for two sites, neither of which have webmention support.\u00a0 But having support for incoming webmentions on one\u2019s site cuts back significantly on that manual pain.\nFor those who\u2019d like to give it a spin, I\u2019ll also mention that I\u2019ve similarly used the incredibly old refbacks concept in the past as a means of notification from other websites (this can take a while) and then forced manual webmentions to get better data out of them than the refback method allows.\n\n\nSyndicated copies: WordPress icon\n \n <?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\">\n\nIndieWebCamp Icon\n Twitter icon\n Mastodon icon",
