Documenting my loving embrace of the WordPress ActivtyPub Plugin for getting this blog (and others I manage) federated.
I’ve been full on the Get Federated train, and have been most happy with having this WordPress blog going beyond just auto posting posts to the Mastodon but blogging about being a fully fediverse resident entity (if you will) via the ActivityPub plugin. It’s challenging as the expectation for most folks (including me and services […]
Testing some fediversal URL auto embeds for WordPress happening in this here blog, now with slapping a naked URL on its own line: which embeds beautifully just like this- SHAZAM!~ Can we go beyond mastodon? What about a pixelfed URL? and yup. I am seeing an embedded pixelfed photo here. WINNING! As it turns out […]
It’s mad conference activity blog catchup, still lots to cover from last week’s Reclaim Open conference. This is a quick post (hah the previous quick one took like 3 hours) about my session on day 2: Small Pieces Still Loosely Joined, Integrated, Federated. It hardly needs blogging (hah) as it was a good reason to […]
Just to keep the blog reflexes flexing, this is a brain dump recap of me having enjoyed a session yesterday being on the Reclaim Hosting video chat session Blogging Community of Practice. Is that the right link or is it this one? Anyhow, Maren and Jim et al invited me to blab about “Blogging in […]
I love WordPress. And I love the Fediverse. So together, I love the ActivityPub WordPress plugin that is the magic pixie dust betwxit them. This is an experiment. I published a post here yesterday A[I]s We May Not Think (nor search, nor link), hence autopmatically sent out to the wide fedispace via @barking which was […]
Indeed, this post is a test. With the move of this olde barge of a blog from Reclaim Hosting’s shared hosting to Reclaim Cloud, the WordPress Activity Pub seems not to by firing out via @barking@cogdogblog.com in Mastodon. On the publishing side, I see the WordPress wheels spinning in the process, but it never completes. […]
There’s times when I sit down at this here new post page thinking I have something to write about… and find out I have already done so. Well, the thing is open so I can add a bit more wood to the post pile. Just in February I wrote about a fleet of WordPress sites […]
This is a post of the CogDogBlog Federated Publishing System. This is only a test. Nah, it;s a real blog post! But my last post was not published to the Fediverse and the kind folks who make the software and actually respond like humans suggested the newest version of the ActivityPub plugin should make amends. […]
While many people are slamming WordPress because of its baby in charge, I’m focussed still on the open source software I run on my own sites that are not impacted by the tantrums. Lately I have been putting to work on several sites, the WordPress ActivityPub plugin that makes your site publish to and suck […]
Composed while offline 14 hours on a trans pacific flight… While I playfully gasta-cated at OER24 for folks to put on the Get Federated t-shirt, I knew then and more now that it’s not going to be for everyone. “It’s too complicated reigns”. Where to Go? Hence the ongoing gnashing of “where to be”? The […]
