 Anyone have an interesting blog that uses the WordPress ActivityPub plugin? If so, please leave a link/handle as a reply to this post. (And even if you don't, please boost this thread on so it can reach people who do.) #WordPress #WebDev #Fediverse #Automattic @pfefferle #Mastodon @fediverse @asklemmy @technology 32 comments
 @ajsadauskas What does/should an #ActivityPub plugin to a blogging engine do? Presumably publish an Activity when a new post is published? Writing one for #Cryogen would be a good wee exercise.  @simon_brooke @ajsadauskas Also picks up replies - but only the first level. Replies to replies don't get picked up, and really need to be, and your replies made on blog don't go out, and they really should. But, well, alpha software and all that. @ajsadauskas @pfefferle Define "interesting" :) Here is my personal blog: @jeremy  @ajsadauskas @pfefferle not even close to “interesting” but my Timelapse project (@view) uses the activitypub plugin and I just set up my personal blog (@me) to use it. My big question is how to more easily use the feature in apps as it doesn’t seem possible yet. But I am eager to see who things progress now that Wordpress has gone all in! @ajsadauskas @pfefferle https://blog.opensource.org has it installed :) with a bunch of #IndieWeb plugins too @ajsadauskas @pfefferle I have a blog that uses it, but it's certainly not very interesting yet. @ajsadauskas @pfefferle Ok I installed and activated ActivityPub plugin on my blog, https://visualculturecaffe.com/ - what happens now? @caffeneko @ajsadauskas @pfefferle Hmmm @caffeneko@visualculturecaffe.com should be populating, shouldn't it? @caffeneko @ajsadauskas @pfefferle how about... -snip-@visualculturecaffe.com? @vsp @ajsadauskas @pfefferle nothing - tho not a fan of my email address being shared through the plugin like that, if it works like that... @caffeneko @ajsadauskas @pfefferle oh, it's how it's set up on your WordPress. It should pull the account name you have set up for you, and then use that as the 'username' attached to your address. @caffeneko @ajsadauskas @pfefferle Also, fyi, WordPress still displays your email. My advice is to go into user settings and change your user login credentials, and it should remove it from being visible on your site. @vsp @ajsadauskas @pfefferle That's weird b/c settings show my username as caffeneko - there's a field for my email address but it says it won't be publically displayed. I'll check login credentials.  @caffeneko @vsp @ajsadauskas it is shared by the WebFinger plugin, not the ActivityPub plugin. Try to deinstall the WebFiger plugin. @caffeneko @vsp @ajsadauskas oh, then there will be no email address published (just the WebFinger identifier that looks like an email address)  @ajsadauskas @pfefferle Sigh, of course, better to say @europlus@blog.europlus.zone  @ajsadauskas @pfefferle @fediverse @asklemmy @technology I run a few, nice to see people interacting! @ajsadauskas @pfefferle @fediverse @asklemmy @technology I don't know about interesting, but it is https://david-philippi.de @david-philippi.de :)  @ajsadauskas@aus.social @pfefferle@mastodon.social @fediverse@lemmy.ml @asklemmy@lemmy.ml @technology@lemmy.ml I used to have mine (in profile) on WordPress, but migrated it to writefreely to get federation without the horribleness of using WordPress.
