@pfefferle Congrats! Super exciting! Any idea if or when this will be included in the base WordPress install or available on WordPress.com free accounts?

aslakr, 8 months ago

@pfefferle Should the plugin also report the plugin name and version making it visible on e.g. https://fedidb.org/software/wordpress ?

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@aslakr It does provide an endpoint to make the data available, but does not ping fedidb actively.

aslakr, 8 months ago

@pfefferle I thought fedidb only crawled not that software pinged it. How does fedidb finds sites that isn’t manually added?

Also, monthly active users (MUA) at 4 seems a bit odd. Maybe @pixelfed have suggestion on how data for plugins like wordpress-activitypub should be presented.

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@aslakr @pixelfed I do not set the MUA at all, so this seem to be a customized version of the plugin.

aslakr, 8 months ago

@pfefferle @pixelfed I do notice that the blogging platform #Writefreely https://fedidb.org/software/writefreely has similar low MUA numbers. I do wonder how those numbers are calculated and what they should mean for software like that.

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@aslakr @pixelfed as I Said in my previous comment, on WordPress they are not calculated at all and 0 by default. If there are other numbers then they were tweaked by blog-owners.

aslakr, 8 months ago

@pfefferle @pixelfed Oh, I thought that those numbers where calculated by fedidb, not self reported by the server software.

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@aslakr @pixelfed btw. you can find the spec here: http://nodeinfo.diaspora.software/schema.html

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@aslakr @pixelfed hmmm, the truth might be somewhere in the middle. NodeInfo has at least a usage/users/activeHalfyear and usage/users/activeMonth property, that should not be existant on WordPress, but maybe you are right and FediDB also calculates numbers.

Maybe @dansup can help?!?

aslakr, 7 months ago

@pfefferle @pixelfed @dansup I noticed that MAU was added to https://wordpress.org/plugins/nodeinfo/#developers

Does this mean that WP with the #nodeinfo plugin activated will have numbers for monthly active users that fedidb could use?

pfefferle, 7 months ago

@aslakr @pixelfed @dansup yes, but I will also port it to the ActivityPub plugin tomorrow.

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@aslakr @pixelfed ah, misread your question a bit! It is showing the WordPress version, but not the plugin version!

I thought it might be a way more important info that you use WordPress and the plugin is not that important.

The plugin provides these informations, but they will not be aggregated, because they are in the "unstructured" meta part of NodeInfo.

I’m curious about domain names.

I have a not particularly technical friend that just revamped her $name.wordpress.com blogsite

Can she be $name @ $name wordpress.com web site ?

Is this foreseen ?

Is there a guide for dummy blogger to turn it on wordpress.com hosted blogs ?

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@luca @alex @jeremy @mediaformat @mattwiebe @nuriapenya @donnacavalier We have not released it on WordPress.com yet, so that's why there are no guides yet :)

It is planned to have a really simple version for $name.wordpress.com sites, without all the setup options that are currently possible, to not distract/confuse users. For the first release, the username will be $name.wordpress.com@$name.wordpress.com

luca, 8 months ago

@pfefferle @alex @jeremy @mediaformat @mattwiebe @nuriapenya @donnacavalier

make sense to me, thank you

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@luca @alex @jeremy @mediaformat @mattwiebe @nuriapenya @donnacavalier ...and there will be some posts about the release, what it does and how to use it, when we release. Simply subscribe to https://wordpress.com/blog/

Nice one. Looks great.

My wordpress install is in a subdirectory rather than at the web-root.

Is that likely to break things or will it work anyway?

millions, 8 months ago

@pfefferle do i need to pay to get this or is it free?

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@millions you do not have to pay to use the plugin, it's free!

millions, 8 months ago

@pfefferle Apparently you have to pay to use plugins at all though I was asking if there was a way to use activitypub without having to pay for that

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@millions ah, you are speaking about WordPress.com? We are about to release this new version of the plugin on WordPress.com soon, so that you will be able to use the functionality on all tariffs.

millions, 8 months ago

@pfefferle What’s even the difference between the .com one and the .org one?

pfefferle, 8 months ago

@millions when I talk about .org, I am referring to the Software WordPress. .com is a Service that hosts this Software for you.

I've just installed this onto my blog, but I can't seem to find it if I search for it. Is there some delay before it becomes active?
