Do you have a WordPress blog? Did you know you can connect it to the Fediverse?

✅ There's a WordPress plugin which lets people on Mastodon (and the rest of the Fediverse) follow, share and comment on your blog. It's called ActivityPub For Wordpress and you can get it from here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/activitypub

The author of the plugin is @pfefferle

@feditips @pfefferle Thanks for this! I have tried it on my blog, but when I try to follow, it never accepts (Mastodon shows a "cancel follow request").

There is also https://fed.brid.gy/ which I haven't tried yet.

@scully @feditips @pfefferle Nope, it's at the root at https://changelog.complete.org

@jgoerzen @scully @feditips why is there an "archive" in your author URL?

@pfefferle @scully @feditips I don't really know. It's a single-author blog so it's a little odd to be looking at individual accounts anyhow. MAYBE this setting, though it seems more for posts than users?

@jgoerzen @scully @feditips oh, I see! There is no way to follow the complete blog atm. Only single users.

@pfefferle @scully @feditips This patch fixes the issue for me: https://github.com/pfefferle/wordpress-activitypub/pull/105

@scully @pfefferle @feditips Download https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/pfefferle/wordpress-activitypub/pull/105.diff, then go into the activitypub directory in Wordpress, and run patch -p1 < /path/to/105.diff and you'll be set.
