  yes, they are still a thing. If they are being used or not … I find that to be a case-by-case basis. Docs haven’t been updated in YEARS!
  

  @anotheruiguy which docs were you looking at? There's been lots of updates in the last few years, e.g. https://microformats.io

  Why doesn't Google's Structured Data Testing Tool recognize h-entry and #microformats2?

  Thank you!!! I see you used p-photo and it worked in the example. I'm not finding that in the documentation for h-entry.
  

  @andrewmiguelez Your question sparked quite the discussion! https://chat.indieweb.org/microformats/2017-04-25#t1493142254026000

  #microformats question:
  How do I use #h-entry's #u-photo without an img element? Primary image is outside of the article for design reasons.

  @andrewmiguelez The u- prefix tells the parser where to find the value, so you can use a <data> element http://pin13.net/mf2/?id=20170425174631720

• Day 2: Handling URLs with Fragment IDs #100DaysOfIndieWeb

  Earlier this year when I launched XRay, I connected Loqi the IRC bot to it so that we would get inline IRC text previews when people linked to web pages in IRC. XRay works by finding an h-entry on the page, and getting the content and author information from it. Here's what it normally looks like in IRC.

• Why Microformats? Owning My Reviews

  Back in October, I wrote a bunch of short mini-reviews on products and services that I use regularly. I published them all on a single page called "Favorite Things". In the past, I've written a couple of reviews on Amazon and then copied them to my website as a blog post.I decided it was time to be able to publish proper reviews from my own website, including having them show up in Google with the little stars, what Google now calls "Rich Snippets."Searching for Google's documentation on how to mark up a web page to show the Rich Snippet reveals an interesting pattern. Currently, their documentation provides three recommended markup styles: Microdata, RDFa, and JSON-LD. All three use the Schema.org vocabulary.

  I just launched the ability to create "review" posts in Quill, and added support for displaying them in p3k. p3k adds the additional mf1 classes required for the review to show up in Google results as a "rich snippet", although the Google crawlers haven't made it over to my site yet since launching the change.

  In the process of adding both mf2 (h-review) and mf1 (hReview) markup to my review posts, it demonstrated that there are some serious issues with the mf2 parsers and how they handle backcompat mf1 markup. Here's an example of my post being parsed by the PHP, Python, and Node parsers:

  • PHP
  • Node
  • Python

  The Python parser is the only one even close to correct, although it has added a child h-card based on an mf1 object.

  I've opened issues on the corresponding repos to try to get these fixed.

  • Python parser
  • Node parser
  • PHP parser

  In the mean time, my apologies if these review posts appear super broken in whatever reader you're using!

  @rhiaro This is great! Thanks for writing this up. I do like the idea that properties have their own URLs that describe them. I wonder how we could reasonably do that with microformats.

  @aaronpk Right now we use schema for most of the app exports (or hrecipe, need to standardize it), you may already know that?
  

  @paprikaapp hm I didn't see anything other than plain HTML in the export. Luckily microformats2 can co-exist with other markup as well!

  @aaronpk Sorry to have missed this! Checking it out now, will of course add support this is pretty neat.
  

  @paprikaapp Cool! This would be a great way to turn the app export into an API! Happy to answer questions too.

  @aaronpk @yoanngrange I find that hard to believe. How was this tested? Is it a case of “I haven’t seen conflicts, ergo they do not exist"?
  

  @LeaVerou @yoanngrange I believe the research was all documented on the #microformats wiki http://microformats.org/wiki/microformats-2-prefixes

• HTML is my API

  In August 2012, I wrote a quick script to stream front-page Hackernews stories to an IRC channel on Freenode. It broke after 2.5 years, at which point I switched to their new JSON API. That one broke after 2 days. Here is how we can fix this.
