RE: [SOLVED!] PHP Native - Hive Signature Validation - and the Hive+WordPress SSO (single sign on)

So many projects in mind LOL!! I wrote you a little novella here LOL… But my main objective is literally to make it so easy to setup a website, link it to Hive, and have whatever you want (like a webstore, your own digital garage sale, just a blog, the stories of your life, whatever you like), that my 78 year old mother could do it. Literally! I know that might sound a little corny, or overly sentimental, but I mean it, I'm serious. 🧐

To me, mix all that with Hive, and that’s web3.0!!! At least the 3.0 that I’m dreaming of!!

I might indeed be dreaming, and I am a dreamer for sure!!!… I don't know if she ever 'will' do it, but that's not really the point... I want to make it so easy that she could if she wanted to… and do it without breaking the bank, or having to constantly bug someone for help, or be constantly nagged with updates and sales offers. She doesn't like bugging people, doesn’t much like being ‘bugged’, she's very 'old school', do it yourself, learn how, or figure out how to make do without!

But she has lots and lots of knowledge and wisdom from her many years and experience, and though it's not computer technical, she makes an Orange Marmelade that is like no other!!! She is a master seamstress too! I want that recipe on Hive stored forever!!! It's soo good!! Her experience and knowledge is literally priceless! She loves sharing it too, she loves making things for other people, it makes her smile!

She could share all that stuff on Facebook, and she has a little, but she’s grown to hate Facebook. It makes her grumpy! They keep changing it, she can’t find anything, it drives her crazy! It kinda made her dislike computers and the internet, and that made me sad. I love the internet, and I love computers. She used to too. (I very much dislike facebook because of what they have done to it!).

But as you might imagine, my mom is not likely learning how to install Python libraries or PHP dependencies, or host her own website, or anything like that, anytime soon… She probably could if she wanted to, but it would take her a long time, and she doesn't really want to LOL! Can you blame her?!?!

But she is really good at following instructions, she’s smart as a wip, and she can click a button like nobody's business!! She can use WordPress already, if I remove all the nag’s, and get her menu items down to 3 or 4 at a time… AND I don’t keep changing things on her! (that drives her crazy!!! Her sewing machine just works, and if it doesn’t, she knows how to fix it, it's SOLID STATE LOL!)

If I make it easy enough, she just might do it too! I know she would have a blast doing it, and if she could, she just might.

With the pandemic, all the isolation, inflation… well that’s all hit pretty hard too… and if she could earn a couple hundred extra dollars a month selling sewing patterns, or jam recipes, or even a couple jars of her marmalade here and there… it would make a world of difference for her. I know she would have a lot of fun doing it too, once she got started! She won’t take my money (not that I have all that much anyway LOL), it’s just not something she does.

But if I can make it easy enough for her, If she can do it, I bet she will… and then I will have achieved my goal! It will put a big huge smile on my face! 😄 I really love making things for other people, I learned it from her, it makes me smile, both on the inside, and the outside 🌈;)
I hope that gives you a general idea of my plans for this project! Thanks for asking!
