Webmentions for Jekyll

Quickstart

If you want to get up and running quickly, here’s the rundown of what you need to do:

  1. Add gem 'jekyll-webmention_io' to the :jekyll_plugins group in your Gemfile
  2. Run bundle install
  3. Optional but recommended: Configure the username setting of the webmention configuration section to match your webmention.io user name (this ensures that anyone sending webmentions to your site can find the correct webmention endpoint)
  4. Add the {% webmentions_head %} tag to the head of your site
  5. Add the {% webmentions page.url %} tag to the layout for your posts where you want webmentions displayed
  6. (Optional) Add the {% webmentions_js %} tag to the bottom of your posts template (before the </body> tag)
