I wonder if someone have Webmention implemented on Ghost. You can see it in action scrolling down here:
And check the JS client to enable and use the service:
That enables replies on comments directly mentioning the URL of our articles from social media and could be a major break in our engagement and organic traffic as well.
I’ll try to implement by myself but I suspect I’ll need some help so maybe you have interest on it
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 at this point.
As @matenauta said, I think I’m missing something here. So, is Ghost’s implimentation of webmentions only for the new recomendations feature or can it also be used to capture likes, reposts, etc. on social feeds using a tool like Brid.gy?
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 mentions in the admin panel, though since I haven’t had tested it myself, I can’t tell you how they look exactly.
