Profile h-card

[Ruxton]

The h-card info in the profile page seems to come from my h-entries and not the higher level (in the document tree) h-card on my site.

https://ruby.microformats.io/microformats?utf8=%E2%9C%93&url=https%3A%2F%2Fignite.digitalignition.net%2F shows the properties on the feed with much more info/larger avatar than the one embedded in each entry.

Shouldn't it prefer the higher level node?

Hey @Ruxton ! Thanks for looking at the webring!

You can find the code that handles finding representative h-card here:

https://github.com/martymcguire/indiewebring.ws/blob/master/lib/representative-h-card.js

The TL;DR is:

• it uses the (somewhat outdated) microformat-node library to parse the page and return any h-cards found.
• it checks for a card with both url and uid that point to the url they entered for their homepage. if it finds one, it uses it.
• it checks for a card with a url that is also marked as rel="me" somewhere on the page
  • looks like i have a bug in this code! not sure if it's impacting your case, but it will result in taking the first card returned by microformat-node if there is any link on the page with rel="me" pointing to the homepage url.
• finally, if there is only one card, and it has url matching the homepage url, it takes that.

I'm a bit constrained by the results of microformat-node, but I'm open to suggestions and PRs on improving this algorithm!
