Been wanting to get back into programming in #PHP for a while, so I took the opportunity to slightly modify an extension that cross-posts from #WordPress to #BlueSky in order to fix an issue it had with authentication after the initial configuration. So far it appears to be working!

Now that the #WordPress #ActivityPub plugin has matured to a greater degree, please find me on the Fediverse at @mikewmerritt@dymersion.com. I may post on this account occasionally if I cannot post a message otherwise or for testing purposes as I tinker with federation from the blog.
At some point, hopefully I'll be able to formally move the account.
To those who use the #WordPress #ActivityPub plugin and also are using the #PostKinds or #IndieBlocks plugins as a way to reply to toots: Or is it just me or has anyone noticed that recently (last week or so, maybe longer) #Mastodon isn’t threading the incoming reply?
It may just me. My integration seems to fail a lot in various ways, whether it’s my posts not being sent onward to inboxes or the Post Kinds URL metabox sometimes not saving URLs for replies or likes, but I’d like to see if there’s some larger issue going on.
Looks like I’ve finally outgrown shared hosting, thanks to having the #ActivityPub plugin installed on my #WordPress install. For anyone not on shared hosting, what size droplet (or equivalent concept in AWS, GCP, Azure, etc) are you using to support a WordPress install with ActivityPub / #Mastodon integration?
Alright, let’s try the new #WordPress #ActivityPub plugin threaded comments feature.
So what is the reason I can sometimes send a #WordPress generated reply and sometimes not? Mostly not recently.
I broke #WordPress #ActivityPub posting the other day, so seeing if it’s fixed now.
Finally, I seem to have found a way for posts/toots from #WordPress to default to the ‘note’ #PostKind when posted from outside the WP interface. Now to find a way for the plugin to always respect the choice selected in the settings, as it currently doesn’t in this use case.
Using the #WordPress instance as if it were #Mastodon is very cool.
The #WordPress-as-instance concept finally seems to be in a relatively usable state. Posts mostly seem to be…posting. My following requests seem to be registering, at least on the same instance of the user being followed, though not globally (maybe they need time to catch-up). Some of the remaining issues are:
- -Updates are not yet implemented though deletion is.
- -I’d like to edit the links individually, though I may have a solution for this.
- -Some Likes are not reverse-feeding back to the blog.
- -You can’t yet migrate the user to WordPress, though I understand that’s planned. If that was implemented, I’d do it now. I’ve heard of a workaround. If it makes sense, I may try it.
