@pfefferle For me, the integration in both directions still only works sometimes. Today, for example, I had in both directions a missing comment:

https://wolkenstich.wordpress.com/2024/01/12/afd-verbot/#comment-19527 (a comment on Mastodon did not appear on wordpress.com)

https://social.tchncs.de/@York/111748411055828633 (a comment on wordpress.com did not appear on Mastodon)

If this will work some day, it'll be a cool feature, though.

@nnz this is because we have not yet released the 2.0.X on WordPress.com yet! I am sorry, but there are still some bugs I have to fix to release it :(

But I think latest next week!

mitexleo,

@pfefferle @mattwiebe @kanru @linos @mediaformat @mat @webrocker @sentynel @janboddez Not working on my blog🤔 .. Do I need to make any changes other than updating to the latest version?

@pfefferle@mastodon.social avatar

@mitexleo not really... have it worked before? can you share your user id?

mitexleo,

@pfefferle Sorry for not explaining earlier. Comments from WP is not being federated. @techbites

mitexleo,

@pfefferle @techbites 😬
... Didn't receive any notification... Sorry for this. Maybe we should automatically add the handle on comment like Mastodon?

pfefferle,
@pfefferle@mastodon.social avatar

@mitexleo @techbites no problem... the missing notification is a known issue and we are working on that.

happy federated commenting :)

First above all: Congratulations!!!

I think one thing might be missing: Being able to reply on a "comment from WordPress" that is not known to your Mastodon instance yet.

My instance does not know of the reply "Is it working" yet. There is no clear way of getting the (ActivityPub) URI/URI/id of that comment. Even when trying to fetch it from another Mastodon instance which knows the comments I can't search for it using the search field: https://techbites.info/news/cybersecurity/rise-in-scams-surrounding-twitters-gold-accounts-revealed-by-cybersecurity-researchers/#comment-15

I installed the old version on my self-hosted yesterday, waited a bit, published a new post, waited a bit, and still can't find my blog searching for the Mastodon user URL.

Going to try the troubleshooting steps today surrounding subdirectories 🤷‍♂️

@smeg let me know if I can help!

trantion,

@pfefferle How long does it normally take before a site is accessible over ActivityPub? I've just set up a new Wordpress install on a new domain with the ActivityPub plugin, and when I search on here I get "503 Remote SSL certificate could not be verified". SSL appears to work fine in Firefox. Hoping it works in a couple of days

@pfefferle Excellent news! Thank you for all the work on this.

Are the Blocks new? (Follow me on Fediverse, and Fediverse Followers) Those are a nice addition.

If they have been there before, then I guess I just missed them.

pfefferle,
@pfefferle@mastodon.social avatar

@danyork the blocks are available since 1.0.0 I think :)

danyork,
@danyork@mastodon.social avatar

@pfefferle Cool! Clearly I just missed that. 🤦‍♂️

@pfefferle

I have a question: I have a WP blog with the plug-in:

https://bjoern.brembs.net/

Somehow, I managed to create two Mastodon users that post different posts:

@bjoern
@brembs

How can I adjust it such that these posts all shw up under this account instead? The way I understand it, it is not possible? If so then what would be the use case for the plug-in?

pfefferle,
@pfefferle@mastodon.social avatar

@brembs @bjoern @brembs these are technically two accounts, so you can try to abandon one and send your followers to the other, but there is no way to use one ID for Mastodon and WordPress (if that is the question).

The Use-Case of the plugin: You do not have to have a Mastodon account to federate your posts and all reactions to your posts will be federated back to your blogs comment section. If this is not what you searched for, maybe you want to have a look at a cross-posting plugin instead?

brembs,
@brembs@mastodon.social avatar

@pfefferle

Thanks, that's what I thought, I just wasn't sure I had understood it properly. I think I'll unistall the plug-in again and search for one that simply posts the links to Mastodon for me.
I'm also considering setting up my own instance as a subdomain and then migrate there from here, but I'm not sure it's worth the hassle.

Thanks again!

@brembs you're welcome :)
