HTML5 comments seems to overwrite facepiles

[pfefferle]

@dshanske it seems that the html5 implementation (https://github.com/pfefferle/wordpress-semantic-linkbacks/blob/master/includes/class-linkbacks-walker-comment.php#L77) in the comment walker is disabling the facepile feature in some way.

So I installed https://github.com/pfefferle/Autonomie on my site and tested it, and I still don’t get a facepile: https://imgur.com/a/n3F7aJV (my theme on this page )

Also, I double-checked, I am on version 3.9.3 of this plugin.

@prtksxna if you checked other themes, it seems not what I thought.

[pfefferle]

@prtksxna can you please send me a picture of your settings?

[dshanske]

I will have a look at this when I can to see if I see something. I haven't been in this code in ages.

[prtksxna]

@pfefferle Here you go:

Let me know if you'd like to see any other setting/page too.

Was this ever worked out? I am having identical symptoms to @prtksxna. Same basic settings. Jetpack commenting turned off as instructed. http://voxpopcast.com/wp/2019/08/26/e72-the-power-of-cuteness/ is a sample page. likes, reposts, etc are showing up as comments. No facepile section is being generated at all.

[chrismaverick]

Also, my understanding is that the webmentions comments that are being generated should probably have user's twitter and instagram avatars on that page, but they're just defaulting to the nobody shadow.

[dshanske]

I have not been able to reproduce this, but I have scheduled a rewrite of this code as part of an overall improvement to webmentions.

[chrismaverick]

since it's not clear if the others are paying attention anymore, If you need a crash test dummy, let me know.

[prtksxna]

Hey o/ Any updates on this? I recently updated the plugin but still get the same issue.

This can be closed now that #240 is fixed.
