Getting Started

To use Omnibear, your website will need to support two things: authentication and micropub. These pages will help you get everything set up and ready to go. Once you have posted to your site, you might (optionally) consider informing other sites with webmentions.

If you’re not ready to set up these features on your website, consider trying Omnibear by logging in with commentpara.de and it will take care of the rest.

Web sign-in

You can log into Omnibear using web sign-in. This allows you to verify that you own the website you want to post to. There are a number of ways you can implement web sign-in on your site, but the easiest and most common is through indieauth.com.

Mentions

After Omnibear posts to your site using micropub, you’ll want the recipient to be notified. Webmentions are the recommended way to achieve this. This isn’t required to posting to your own site but allows other IndieWeb sites to display your response.
