The ActivityPub protocol is a decentralized social networking protocol based upon the ActivityStreams 2.0 data format.

Description

Enter the fediverse with ActivityPub, broadcasting your blog to a wider audience! Attract followers, deliver updates, and receive comments from a diverse user base of ActivityPub-compliant platforms.

With the ActivityPub plugin installed, your WordPress blog itself function as a federated profile, along with profiles for each author. For instance, if your website is example.com, then the blog-wide profile can be found at @[email protected], and authors like Jane and Bob would have their individual profiles at @[email protected] and @[email protected], respectively.

An example: I give you my Mastodon profile name: @[email protected]. You search, see my profile, and hit follow. Now, any post I make appears in your Home feed. Similarly, with the ActivityPub plugin, you can find and follow Jane's profile at @[email protected].

Once you follow Jane's @[email protected] profile, any blog post she crafts on example.com will land in your Home feed. Simultaneously, by following the blog-wide profile @[email protected], you'll receive updates from all authors.

Note: if no one follows your author or blog instance, your posts remain unseen. The simplest method to verify the plugin's operation is by following your profile. If you possess a Mastodon profile, initiate by following your new one.

The plugin works with the following tested federated platforms, but there may be more that it works with as well:

• Mastodon
• Pleroma/Akkoma
• friendica
• Hubzilla
• Pixelfed
• Socialhome
• Misskey
• Firefish (rebrand of Calckey)

Some things to note:

1. The blog-wide profile is only compatible with sites with rewrite rules enabled. If your site does not have rewrite rules enabled, the author-specific profiles may still work.
2. Many single-author blogs have chosen to turn off or redirect their author profile pages, usually via an SEO plugin like Yoast or Rank Math. This is usually done to avoid duplicate content with your blog’s home page. If your author page has been deactivated in this way, then ActivityPub author profiles won’t work for you. Instead, you can turn your author profile page back on, and then use the option in your SEO plugin to noindex the author page. This will still resolve duplicate content issues with search engines and will enable ActivityPub author profiles to work.
3. Once ActivityPub is installed, only new posts going forward will be available in the fediverse. Likewise, even if you’ve been using ActivityPub for a while, anyone who follows your site, will only see new posts you publish from that moment on. They will never see previously-published posts in their Home feed. This process is very similar to subscribing to a newsletter. If you subscribe to a newsletter, you will only receive future emails, but not the old archived ones. With ActivityPub, if someone follows your site, they will only receive new blog posts you publish from then on.

So what’s the process?

1. Install the ActivityPub plugin.
2. Go to the plugin’s settings page and adjust the settings to your liking. Click the Save button when ready.
3. Make sure your blog’s author profile page is active if you are using author profiles.
4. Go to Mastodon or any other federated platform, and search for your profile, and follow it. Your new profile will be in the form of either @[email protected] or @[email protected], so that is what you’ll search for.
5. On your blog, publish a new post.
6. From Mastodon, check to see if the new post appears in your Home feed.

Please note that it may take up to 15 minutes or so for the new post to show up in your federated feed. This is because the messages are sent to the federated platforms using a delayed cron. This avoids breaking the publishing process for those cases where users might have lots of followers. So please don’t assume that just because you didn’t see it show up right away that something is broken. Give it some time. In most cases, it will show up within a few minutes, and you’ll know everything is working as expected.

Frequently Asked Questions

tl;dr

This plugin connects your WordPress blog to popular social platforms like Mastodon, making your posts more accessible to a wider audience. Once installed, your blog can be followed by users on these platforms, allowing them to receive your new posts in their feeds.

What is the status of this plugin?

Implemented:

• blog profile pages (JSON representation)
• author profile pages (JSON representation)
• custom links
• functional inbox/outbox
• follow (accept follows)
• share posts
• receive comments/reactions
• signature verification
• threaded comments support

To implement:

• replace shortcodes with blocks for layout

What is "ActivityPub for WordPress"

ActivityPub for WordPress extends WordPress with some Fediverse features, but it does not compete with platforms like Friendica or Mastodon. If you want to run a decentralized social network, please use Mastodon or GNU social.

What if you are running your blog in a subdirectory?

In order for webfinger to work, it must be mapped to the root directory of the URL on which your blog resides.

Apache

Add the following to the .htaccess file in the root directory:

RedirectMatch "^\/\.well-known/(webfinger|nodeinfo|x-nodeinfo2)(.*)$" /blog/.well-known/$1$2

Where 'blog' is the path to the subdirectory at which your blog resides.

Nginx

Add the following to the site.conf in sites-available:

location ~* /.well-known {
	allow all;
	try_files $uri $uri/ /blog/?$args;
}

Where 'blog' is the path to the subdirectory at which your blog resides.

What if you are running your blog in a subdirectory, but have a different wp_siteurl?

In that case you don't need the redirect, because the index.php will take care of that.

Installation

Follow the normal instructions for installing WordPress plugins.

Automatic Plugin Installation

To add a WordPress Plugin using the built-in plugin installer:

1. Go to Plugins > Add New.
2. Type "activitypub" into the Search Plugins box.
3. Find the WordPress Plugin you wish to install.
   1. Click Details for more information about the Plugin and instructions you may wish to print or save to help setup the Plugin.
   2. Click Install Now to install the WordPress Plugin.
4. The resulting installation screen will list the installation as successful or note any problems during the install.
5. If successful, click Activate Plugin to activate it, or Return to Plugin Installer for further actions.

Manual Plugin Installation

There are a few cases when manually installing a WordPress Plugin is appropriate.

• If you wish to control the placement and the process of installing a WordPress Plugin.
• If your server does not permit automatic installation of a WordPress Plugin.
• If you want to try the latest development version.

Installation of a WordPress Plugin manually requires FTP familiarity and the awareness that you may put your site at risk if you install a WordPress Plugin incompatible with the current version or from an unreliable source.

Backup your site completely before proceeding.

To install a WordPress Plugin manually:

• Download your WordPress Plugin to your desktop.
  • Download from the WordPress directory
  • Download from GitHub
• If downloaded as a zip archive, extract the Plugin folder to your desktop.
• With your FTP program, upload the Plugin folder to the wp-content/plugins folder in your WordPress directory online.
• Go to Plugins screen and find the newly uploaded Plugin in the list.
• Click Activate to activate it.

wordpress-activitypub's Issues

Demo/Test server?

Is there any demo or test server for this plugin that I can test the federation on?

HTML Tags are posted from excerpt

When the excerpt is used by the plugin and utilized in a post, this results in paragraph tags being added before and after the excerpt, along with line breaks (if there are any in the excerpt.)

Post Note URL format

When posting with post-content:excerpt, the attached URL does not respect the permalink settings.

Publishing a one-page update

I changed an image on a fixed page of my WP (which is already several years old) and received in mastodon as if it were the publication of an entry.
Is it possible to avoid this in some way? or maybe in the future?
(Automatic translation from Spanish, sorry)

Mentions to the account appears in the comments

When someone write a toot from Mastodon, mentioning the blog account, it appears in the admin comment section (I don't know if it goes in any article of the website).

NB : This include private toots, which is a privacy issue.

If it's not a reply to an article/comment, this should not be included.
Or maybe as a "contact form", by receiving an email ?

Idea: Remote follow widget

Hi!
It would be super cool to have a remote follow widget, that users can click on to follow the blog.
Additionally this could come in handy to communicate to readers, that the blog is part of the fediverse.

Ideally the page would somewhat mimic mastodons remote follow page (example).

Followers list doesn't work with Hubzilla users.

The "List of followers" section of /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=activitypub doesn't work with Hubzilla users, who display as "Array" in the list.

Unable to activate 0.5.0

Attempting to upgrade and activate version 0.5.0, causes Wordpress to fail due to memory exhaustion. Looks like "flush_rewrite_rules" in the init hook is recursively calling itself? Also still can't follow from Pleroma, but that's another issue :-)

function flush_rewrite_rules() {
	\Activitypub\add_rewrite_rules();
	flush_rewrite_rules();
}

allow the whole blog to be one actor

I can think about many WordPress instances where not the bloggers but the blog as such are the most important thing most people want to follow. For example thing about a blog for your local soccer club. Sometimes "User A" might blog about the latest game, sometimes "User B", etc. But for me this doesn't matter. I don't want to follow all the individual bloggers and keep track if a new user starts to write blogs for my soccer club. I just want to follow the soccer club's blog and get all the news. In such a case it would be good to have a "meta actor" which is the whole blog I can follow and not only the authors as individual actors.

Password-protected posts are federated.

As in the title: password-protected posts from WordPress are being publicly federated, including content and images.

From my point of view, more "expected" behaviors would be either that password-protected posts:

• aren't federated
• are federated, but with only placeholder content (i.e. "this post is password-protected", etc.)
• are federated but with some sort of security group permissions (if possible?).

Or possibly add a configuration option to allow a user to select from the above?

Can't see my toots on Mastodon

Hello Matthias,

thanks a lot for this great plugin! :)

I can see my account here: http://maiadereva.net/author/maia/
and there: https://mamot.fr/web/accounts/206070
without any problem.

But the toots don't appear in Mastodon 🤔

I published a new post after I followed my blog but nothing appears.

Do I miss something?

Cheers
Maïa

Adding Wordpress-activitypub to the-federation.info

As mentioned in this thread

Thanks for logging - will try to do this soon. Will need to look at them whether they expose any structured metadata. I'd rather not write much custom parsers to work on HTML.

All new projects I suggest adopt https://git.feneas.org/jaywink/nodeinfo2

Blog in a subpath / webfinger test fails

My wordpress is installed in domain.tld/subpath.
When I try to test the webfinger part, it fails. With both [email protected] ("invalid content-type: text/html") and [email protected]/subdomain (<- this one gives me an encoding error "invalid URL escape "%2F"").

Is this plugin compatible with subpath ?

Activitypub account requires follow request approval

I have the latest verrsins of both wordpress and the plugin, and when I look at the account that is created ([email protected]), I see that the two people following me have to be approved. How do I either approve these requests or set this to not require follow approval? Thanks!

Comments don't appear to work properly

I had a little look at this post and posted a comment... only to see this monstrosity no longer exhibits problem.

It appears that, instead of displaying the comment body, it calls me Anonymous and displays a link to my user profile instead. I'd wager that this is not the expected behaviour.

Only url on mastodon

Salut, since 4 days, i have got some problems with mastodon, the post url was display without content (or just picture with).
I updated from here (since 0.0.2), and releases between 0.0.2 to 0.1.0 worked without problems

Private/public keys not generated

i’ve installed the plugin and i can’t find my site ([email protected]) on Mastodon.

I’ve checked [email protected] in webfinger and it is fine: https://client.webfinger.net/lookup?resource=vb%40voragine.net

The end point (https://voragine.net/.well-known/webfinger) throws some error message: “Missing parameter (s): resource”.

Apparently, the problem is that private/public keys haven't been generated.

SSL support enabled in my PHP config.

cannot find page

Publish excerpt in content instead of summary

I am very new at the fediverse and even newer at WordPress, so please forgive me if I misunderstand something.

I understood from the description of the excerpt functionality that it is to replace the content in case of length-restricted formats like an RSS feed. Such a feed should show the excerpt + a link instead of the content; if no manual excerpt is provided the actual content may be automatically shortened by such a feed to provide an excerpt.

This plugin (version 0.1.0) places the manual excerpt in the summary field instead. A recent commit actually creates an automatic excerpt from the content, and places that in the summary field. If I understand it correctly, the summary field is used in systems like Mastodon to provide the content warning.

I therefor propose to put the manual excerpt, or possibly the automatic excerpt if applicable, in the content of the activity stream, rather than the summary.

Can't follow from Pleroma

Is this a known issue or something with my WordPress setup? I am able to follow from Mastodon, but my personal Pleroma instance returns a 500. Webfinger for my WP is https://client.webfinger.net/lookup?resource=mcg%40blog.braintube.com

[Question] Cannot reply to comments from website

This may be similar to #39.

My WordPress installation with the current wordpress-activitypub plugin is capable of receiving replies to posts, and can also accept DMs and mentions unrelated to posts on the site.

However, I cannot reply from the website to comments on posts. Nor can I reply to DMs and mentions. Is this functionality on the roadmap?

no posts visible

Hi,

thank you for this cool plugin. I have the problem that i can follow my WP user via Mastodon, see the count of his posts, profile image. can also mention the user, which shows up as comment to no post But i do not see the posts in Mastodon user view. Can you tell me how to debug the following stuff:

Things not working:

• i do not see the posts in mastodon profile view

• i followed the account from external-mastodon-user-1 and it showed up in the wp-activitypub-dashboard. I unfollowed the user there and the user still shows up as follower. I followed the user with external-mastodon-user-2 (different instance that user1) and this user is not listed in the wp-activitypub-dashboard , there is still user1. BUT on mastodon it shows things correct

To mention:

I run the age-check plugin, so maybe there should be an custom bot exception done by me.

Cannot follow - webfinger appears ok

I've installed the activitypub plugin and activated. I'm on wordpress 4.98 using PHP 7.2.

When I try and add contact [email protected] from friendica, I get the message 'network type couldn't be detected. Contact not added'. This is with the latest RC of friendica with ActivityPub support.

Webfinger tests appear to be ok

[Question] Direct comments ?

It is possible to change permalink url in message ? Or send direct comments in simple way ?

I want to comments post via send new messages, instead of looking for specific thread in my network and comment manually.

What I mean:

1. I follow author on WordPress.
2. I write message on Friendica or Hubzilla with @author@WordPress.
3. I have new comment … but without permalink. It's visible in /wp-admin/edit-comments.php
4. I am looking for idea, how can I send my message to specific url for example, I have blog example.com and post abc, so my post is example.com/abc.
   4.1. I need create new post with permalink example.com/abc#comment-1 or it's better way ?

503 remote SSL certificate could not be verified

When trying to subscribe to @[email protected] on mastodon (mastodon.art) I get the error:

503 Remote SSL certificate could not be verified.

This happens also when I do http://domain.tld/author/username. But when I do https://domain.tld/author/username I get 0 results.

How can I test more?

Convert paragraphs to break lines

When I publish a long text with many paragraphs on wordpress it gets published as on long block on mastodon. It would be great if paragraphs would be converted into line breaks.

Cannot follow

Hi,

When I'm trying to follow via Mastodon, I keep getting an error "503Remote data could not be fetched". If I try via Pleroma, it doesn't see the website. If I try in Osada and Hubzilla, same thing as Pleroma.

Here are some examples:

@[email protected] (PHP7.0; nginx; solo installation)
@[email protected] (PHP7.2; nginx; multisite installation)

Is there an installation step I should've done?

I have the ActivityStream, WebFingers, /.well-known/, Webmention plugins. Tried disabling the /.well-known/ plugin but still the same. I also removed the OStatus plugin in case there are overlaps/conflicts.

Thank you!

Description/main account

As these users are essentially one way feeds, it would be great if the feeds when viewed from fediverse could have

1. an icon
2. a description (e.g. this would be especially useful to point out that this is a wordpress install that cannot follow back or boost, and a brief description of the blog)
3. information slots (similar to up to 4 slots mastodon has. this would be very useful to add custom information mastodon account associated with this blog)

Unless the plan is to have these eventually work as full fledged actors that can follow, boost and comment on other accounts? although these features would be useful even in that case.

Thanks for this great plugin!

Not Found in Wordpress Plugins

Link you posted to the Plugin appstore does not work.

Has this been officially released?

Catchall-Account

Hej,
I write my comment here because I am not sure if your OStatus-suite has a future with ActivityPub at the horizon.

It would be cool if it was possible to follow the whole blog and not just accounts. At the moment you can just follow @[email protected], @[email protected], @[email protected] - it would be nice if I could just follow *@example.com. I don't care what * is or if I am able to customize it...

Feature Request: hide followers

In Mastodon one can set "hide followers" which shows others only "myself" as follower, but hides all others. this would be greatly appreciated for WP activitypub too. otherwise people will receive a lot of spam because bots are able to scan all followers.

Posts stopped being broadcasted after February 15

The last post from my WordPress blog that is visible from Mastodon is from February 15th. I have made a few more posts since then and they are not visible. I’m keeping the plugin updated. I don’t remember making changes to the site and nothing jumps out at me in the config.

Site: https://micro.steveroy.ca
Plugin version 0.5.1

Comments deleted from the fediverse are not deleted on Wordpress

If a comment is posted for instance from Mastodon, and then deleted from Mastodon, it's still appearing in Wordpress.
Which means people can't remove their comments (ok, it's the case in Wordpress by default, but not intended to happen for someone on the fediverse) while they could think they were deleted; rewriting them create doubles; mistaken mentions (private statuses too, right now #50) are also in the comments.

I believe it should at least be placed in the trash.

Deleted images are still posted in activity pub

An image that was uploaded and embedded once in an article and deleted from that article afterwards (though not from the media library) is still posted as attachment.

How do I accept a follower?

I've attempted to follow the admin user of my blog, but on Mastodon it says it's awaiting approval. Is this a known issue, and is there a way to fix this?

Plugin was working great... is now not.

As in the title, the plugin was working great, integrating primarily with Mastodon, until about six days ago. After that, no posts appear to be federating, although people can still @-mention me @[email protected] successfully, and my profile is still discoverable via Mastodon/etc.

The timing of posts no longer showing roughly coincided with the plugin's update, but I think also with gaining a follower from a Hubzilla instance (see also #24). I can't think of any other changes that may have caused the interruption?

Hashtags appear not to be clickable in Mastodon

Title says it all :D
When I include hashtags in my posts, those are not clickable from within mastodon.
I'm not sure, whether it is possible to make the hashtags clickable like mastodon usually does, since the hyperlink usually posts to something like example.org/tags/hashtag, so you probably need to map that to wordpress tags somehow, which might not be trivial.

Unable to follow from Mastodon

When I search for my user@domain from Mastodon, nothing is found. When I look at https://client.webfinger.net/lookup?resource=steve%40micro.steveroy.ca, I see that it's not broadcasting the /author/steve URL as it should be but I'm not sure how to rectify that.

I don't think I have any plugin installed that rewrites or changes that info but here is the list of active plugins:

• ActivityPub
• Akismet
• Classic Editor
• JSON Feed
• Mastodon Auto Share

Anything else I should be looking at?

Support for Post Kinds (aka map post types to activity verbs)

It would be nice if we could map the post types with the corresponding activity verbs especially when I have the Post Kinds plugin installed.

Say, I read a book and use the read post type, it would be nice if the AS shows me as reading the book. And there are several other post types that could be mapped to the other AS activity verbs.

(Originally published at: https://xavierroy.com/b/21h)

Consider releasing 0.0.2

I spotted a typo in class-activitypub.php in my local installation (aplication/activity+json), which seems to be resolved since b73b8e8.

0.0.2 seems to be tagged in Git; maybe it can be released to the Wordpress Plugins system?

Make username (webfinger) customizable

I am not a fan of the fact that this used my loginname for wordpress as the user handle. I very much prefer Pterotypes approach to just use blog@. Now i deinstalled the plugin again, but i donÄt know how to delete the Account created on the Fediverse since I don't have access to it. How do I do that?
Thank you

Support selective publishing

Is it possible to build in filters so that I can withhold publishing a certain category or tags? Say I have a food log and I would not want to tell the Fediverse what I had for breakfast or lunch. 🙂 I am thinking of a filter (could be a category/tag/post kind/post format). Anything that matches the filter does not go through to the fediverse.

(Originally published at: https://xavierroy.com/b/21k)

Proper tagging on upper case vs lower case

Not quite sure what may be causing it, but I've noticed on my site that I get a properly tagged #WCSCV but don't get it properly tagged when I use lower case #wcscv. Is this to be expected or something in the line of a regex issue?

Examples: [1] [2]

(Originally posted at https://boffosocko.com/2019/02/27/proper-tagging-on-upper-case-vs-lower-case/)

Customizable length of excerpts or an option to just publish the headline of an article

It would be great If there would be a way to customize the length of the excerpt or an option to just publish the headline of the post plus a link.

Help! This plugin makes me way too excited!

Since I found out about this plugin, I'm constantly in awe.

Not only does it federate my blog posts into the fediverse and makes my blog appear as an actor, it also displays comments that are made from mastodon and co. below my articles! Who would do such bold things??

I'm not sure if I can handle so much awesomeness... Please let me know, if this is intended behaviour.

Include tags as hashtags in posts

It would be nice, if tags would be included in the post as hashtags. I assume this would work best when posting the excerpt of the article.

Deleted posts still show up on the fediverse

Hi!
While we're at it... :D
If I create a post in my blog and later decide to delete it, the post still shows up from within mastodon. Only if I copy the link to the toot and open it in a browser, I get a 404 on my blog. I don't think that this is a caching issue, as the post is still available on mastodon after a few hours.

Keep up the great work!

Can't find my blog on Mastodon

Hi. Thanks for a fantastic plugin!

At least it sounds fantastic :D but I can't seem to get it to work :(

I installed it more than I week ago and I've published a post since. Still, In my Mastodon instance (octodon.social) I've searched for both of the adresses the plugin says I can search for many times (@[email protected] and https://blogg.forteller.net/author/admin/) and still nothing shows up.

I guess this is unrelated, but I even get zero results when searching for the new post I've published, even though I have linked to it in a normal toot :/

Am I doing anything wrong, or is this a bug? Thanks!

Individual @user addresses

Would be nice if the plugin allowed for each user to have their own ActivityPub address e.g @[email protected]; so that posts are published to the fediverse under an individuals name, instead of a single account.
