@creme has built a nice MUC BanBot for XMPP with a lot of neat features to keep the Multi-User-Chat rooms in order. This bot is certainly useful for other XMPP server admins too. So we have more control and generally more safety in the envs.net XMPP chat rooms.

I checked and fixed my whole website on the envs pubnix with 'npm exec html-validate'. No more warnings unless they're expected, like empty <a> tags, which are needed for webmentions on pages, blog posts and notes.

I restructured the CSS stylesheets, but kept the look as good as I could like the envs main site. All bash and PHP/JavaScript scripts run as they should. My blog management scripts SHOULD work well enough and the written notes are always checked after editing with 'npm exec html-validate, so I can immediately spot any errors on the posts or notes before I really publish them and can defer/edit them again until no more errors occur.

I never built a complete website before and I'm really proud of it. Especially the integration for webmentions with ActivityPub support was not so easy, because I didn't want to use some fully developed blogging engine like Wordpress or something like this, which certainly have plugins for implementing webmentions and ActivityPub. I did this all by myself, allthough I'm using services like webmention.io and brid.gy. But the tools to post were developed by myself.

You can visit my page at https://dan.envs.net/ and have a look at it.

I've now implemented a feed for short notes, replies, likes, reposts and bookmarks which fully support webmentions and you can also reply to these notes with webmentions.

The pages are not the most beautiful, but I want to have the default look of the envs.net pubnix, although I did some little tweaks to the CSS file for supporting webmentions.

The notes feed page can be accessed with https://dan.envs.net/notes which aggregates the latest 10 notes. Support for browsing all articles will be implemented soon. For now I'm satisfied with the notes page, bacause I did all the PHP, CSS and JS by myself and wrote some bash scripts to manage my blog articles and my notes.

This post also serves as a **first test** , so things can go wrong, but I tested everything as good as I could. So if you're reading this, everything should be fine.

My website now fully supports webmentions. This is a test in sending them automatically from my posts.
