Chat Nickname: gRegor

My name is gRegor Morrill and I have been blogging on https://gregorlove.com since about 2002. By day I am a software developer, primarily using PHP, MySQL, and open source CMS software like ProcessWire.

I first encountered the IndieWeb in 2013 when I came across federated commenting.[1] Since then, I've attended several IndieWebCamps; helped organize Homebrew Website Club in Chicago, Bellingham, and San Diego; and helped organize IndieWebCamp Bellingham 2017.

Previously

  • Webmention plugin for Nucleus CMS
    • As of 2015-07-12 I am no longer using Nucleus CMS on my site or maintaining this plugin.

My site

I was using Nucleus CMS on my site from 2002 until 2015. The extensibility of it attracted me and served me well for a long time. I contributed to the Nucleus core code and several plugins over the years. I implemented a webmention plugin [2] and a plugin for posting notes. Unfortunately, official development has stopped. After using the ProcessWire framework professionally for several sites, I migrated my site to that in 2015.

Here are some notes on my implementations:
