Ignore fragment part of the target URL

[kaushalmodi]

Hello,

This recent tweet of mine caused an interesting webmention..

The link in the tweet was to the "#webmentions" ID in that post.. not directly to that post Permalink: https://scripter.co/installing-go-toolchain/#webmentions

So when someone liked that tweet, the webmention was created for "Permalink + the #webmentions ID". Interestingly that is captured by webmention.io.. but is not retrieved via the API.

So https://webmention.io/api/count?target=https://scripter.co/installing-go-toolchain/ returns:

{
  "count": 1,
  "type": {
    "mention": 1
  }
}

But https://webmention.io/api/count?target=https://scripter.co/installing-go-toolchain/%23webmentions returns:

{
  "count": 1,
  "type": {
    "like": 1
  }
}

Given this, I would then need to poll all the possible subsection URLs for each post (Though I am not yet sure if I can do it using the Hugo Go templates)..

Can you please add an option to merge all the subsection mentions in the post target Permalink?

You're absolutely right, it should be returning these fragment ID mentions when you request the mentions of the page they're on. I will keep this issue open and work on this!
