Syndication Links 4.0.0 Released

Today, from my hotel room in Berlin, Germany, where I am preparing to attend Indiewebcamp Berlin, my first European Indiewebcamp, I released Syndication Links 4.0.0.
The major version number change is because in this version, Syndication Links takes on a new role. As promised previously, I’ve built new syndication code and added supported for Bridgy and Indienews, which both uses Webmentions to trigger a syndication action. This is disabled by default.
As my first live use outside of testing, I’m using the plugin to send this post to Indienews and Twitter(via Bridgy).
The new code adds the concept of a syndication provider, which, when registered, adds the provider as a syndication target for Micropub clients as well as adds it to the WordPress classic editor as a series of checkboxes, er postone for each service.
The Bridgy Publish plugin I announced deprecation on had additional options on a per post and a global level. While the global settings will be coming back in a future version, I likely will not bring back the per-post settings.
Instead, I’d like to add more intelligence behind these decisions, based on other properties of the post. A checkbox is all you should need. The same with auto-syndication. If you decide you want everything to go to Twitter or some site, it shouldn’t check the box…there shouldn’t be a box at all. It should just go, even if there are some more parameters to make that decision…type of post, etc.
So, you are either all in, or in on a per post basis.
I look forward to feedback. This is only the beginning. I hope to do what I did for displaying syndication links, and interface with existing plugins in addition to writing my own integrations.
