Right now, the ActivityPub plugin can transform your post content into different kinds of data before it gets sent out to your subscribers. There’s a huge asterisk on which one works best, because it depends on what you’re trying to do.</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li><strong>Note</strong> – <code>Note</code> is the default ActivityPub object type that Mastodon uses to publish status updates. Selecting this results in ordinary Mastodon-style statuses that originate from WordPress.</li> <li><strong>Article</strong> – <code>Article</code> is an ActivityPub object type similar to note, but is dedicated for long-form content. Basically, WordPress is capable of sending the entire contents of the Article body to other platforms that support it. Unfortunately, Mastodon does not support it </li> <li><strong>WordPress Post-Format</strong> – This option is the strangest out of the bunch, and likely works with the fewest amount of platforms. I haven’t experimented with it, but I believe this just keeps the federated data in the WordPress Post-Format and wraps it in an ActivityPub Object. If I understand correctly, you could theoretically send whole WordPress posts to other ActivityPub-Enabled WordPress platforms with native formatting intact.</li> </ul> <figure data-carousel-extra='{"blog_id":1,"permalink":"https:\/\/wedistribute.org\/2023\/09\/connect-wordpress-to-the-fediverse\/"}' class="wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141601.png?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="568" height="539" data-attachment-id="2958" data-permalink="https://wedistribute.org/2023/09/connect-wordpress-to-the-fediverse/screenshot_20230921_141601/" data-orig-file="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141601.png?fit=568%2C539&ssl=1" data-orig-size="568,539" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="Screenshot_20230921_141601" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141601.png?fit=300%2C285&ssl=1" data-large-file="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141601.png?fit=568%2C539&ssl=1" data-id="2958" src="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141601.png?resize=568%2C539&ssl=1" alt="" class="wp-image-2958" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141601.png?w=568&ssl=1 568w, https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141601.png?resize=300%2C285&ssl=1 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px" /></a></figure> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141503.png?ssl=1"><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="701" height="509" data-attachment-id="2956" data-permalink="https://wedistribute.org/2023/09/connect-wordpress-to-the-fediverse/screenshot_20230921_141503/" data-orig-file="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141503.png?fit=701%2C509&ssl=1" data-orig-size="701,509" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="Screenshot_20230921_141503" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141503.png?fit=300%2C218&ssl=1" data-large-file="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141503.png?fit=701%2C509&ssl=1" data-id="2956" src="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141503.png?resize=701%2C509&ssl=1" alt="" class="wp-image-2956" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141503.png?w=701&ssl=1 701w, https://i0.wp.com/wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Screenshot_20230921_141503.png?resize=300%2C218&ssl=1 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px" /></a></figure> <figcaption class="blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption">A comparison between an ActivityPub <code>Article</code> type on Mastodon and Firefish.</figcaption></figure> <p>As a rule of thumb, We Distribute currently sends all of its Activities out in the <code>Article</code> format.

We'll go through the basic install and setup, highlight a few different configuration options, and bring up what we think are some good best practices.\n\n\n\n\n\n1. Install the Plugin\n\n\n\nThere are two different ways to get the plugin into your WordPress installation: automatic and manual installation.\n\n\n\nAutomatic Install\n\n\n\nTo install the ActivityPub plugin automatically, navigate to your Admin dashboard, then go to Plugins -> Add New, and search for ActivityPub. You'll want to choose this plugin for your site.\n\n\n\nThe plugin, as seen on WordPress.com\n\n\n\nClick the Install button, activate the plugin, and you're good to go! It's time to configure the plugin.\n\n\n\nManual Install\n\n\n\nYou can also choose to manually install the file by downloading it, and uploading the ZIP archive to your Plugins. If you have FTP or SSH access, you can also just unzip the archive and move the resulting directory to wp-content\/plugins\/ in your site installation.\n\n\n\nThe plugin upload dialog, as seen on WordPress.com.\n\n\n\nAfter you upload the .zip file, your plugin will appear in your Plugins directory. Make sure that it's Activated.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. Configuration Options\n\n\n\nProfile\n\n\n\nThis section is where you'll specify a few details about your WordPress ActivityPub actor. There are two kinds of profiles that can be enabled:\n\n\n\n\nEnable Authors - every single author with publishing capabilities gets their own ActivityPub actor. This is handy for publications with big name staff writers - maybe somebody wants to follow Walt Mossberg on given site, but nobody else. This option enables that.\n\n\n\nEnable Blog - the entire WordPress site has a catch-all account that you specify. For example, We Distribute has a dedicated blog actor that is associated with all articles. If a person subscribes to our blog, they will see every article attributed to us.\n\n\n\n\nVarious profile options in the Plugin Settings\n\n\n\nIt's worth mentioning that you can enable both options at the same time. This turns your blog's designated Actor into a Group Actor, that simply reshares all of the posts made by Authors into a timeline. This might be a handy option for big publications with many different big authors, who nevertheless want to put everything into one stream.\n\n\n\nYou can change your blog's profile ID at any time. Just keep in mind that this could potentially break the following relationship with your subscribers, who may still be associated with the old account.\n\n\n\nActivities\n\n\n\nIn addition to tweaking how Actor profiles are treated by WordPress, it's also possible to adjust how outgoing content looks to the rest of the Fediverse.\n\n\n\nPost Content\n\n\n\nThe posts that you send out to your followers can be customized in a lot of different ways.\n\n\n\nNumber of Images\n\n\n\nBy default, this plugin will take inline images from your article, and put them in the resulting post as media attachments. Depending on how your blog works, you'll either be fine with this, or want to attach no inline images at all. We currently set ours to 0.\n\n\n\nOne strange quirk of this setting: if you choose to not attach any images, the resulting post will not contain any inline images. This is fine if you're just posting Notes, but you'll end up with text-only Article posts if you choose to use that ActivityPub Object Type.\n\n\n\nActivityPub Object Type\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis one requires a little bit of explanation. Right now, the ActivityPub plugin can transform your post content into different kinds of data before it gets sent out to your subscribers. There's a huge asterisk on which one works best, because it depends on what you're trying to do.\n\n\n\n\nNote - Note is the default ActivityPub object type that Mastodon uses to publish status updates. Selecting this results in ordinary Mastodon-style statuses that originate from WordPress.\n\n\n\nArticle - Article is an ActivityPub object type similar to note, but is dedicated for long-form content. Basically, WordPress is capable of sending the entire contents of the Article body to other platforms that support it. Unfortunately, Mastodon does not support it \n\n\n\nWordPress Post-Format - This option is the strangest out of the bunch, and likely works with the fewest amount of platforms. I haven't experimented with it, but I believe this just keeps the federated data in the WordPress Post-Format and wraps it in an ActivityPub Object. If I understand correctly, you could theoretically send whole WordPress posts to other ActivityPub-Enabled WordPress platforms with native formatting intact.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA comparison between an ActivityPub Article type on Mastodon and Firefish.\n\n\n\nAs a rule of thumb, We Distribute currently sends all of its Activities out in the Article format. We do this because we anticipate seeing more blogging and social reading platforms to emerge that support it. With that being said, it's still totally valid to use the Note type and configure the output to include just an excerpt and a link instead. The result is a profile that more or less functions like a Twitter brand account or a Facebook page.\n\n\n\nSupported Post Type\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn addition to regular posts, it's possible to federate out additional post types, like Pages and Media. You can also include custom content types as well, such as types created by Pods or Advanced Custom Fields. This might be handy if your publication also includes things like Reviews as a custom post type.\n\n\n\nServers\n\n\n\nThis section allows admins to add or modify a blocklist, which prevents interactions from specified servers. This redirects to WordPress' Disallowed Comment Keys field, which lives in your blog's Discussion settings.\n\n\n\n3. Additional Useful Plugins\n\n\n\nOn its own, the ActivityPub plugin is great. However, you can extend its functionality with a few really useful plugins.\n\n\n\nMaking Links Look Pretty\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMaking content links look good on Mastodon is a little bit of a trial-and-error process. By default, Mastodon relies on Twitter Card metadata, and falls back to Open Graph as a backup.\n\n\n\nA We Distribute article preview as it appears on Mastodon\n\n\n\nIf you want to have control over which elements Mastodon uses to render a link preview, I highly recommend using Open Graph and Twitter Card Tags. By default, your articles will rely on the Thumbnail image, Article title, and Excerpt to generate a big card preview that looks great in timelines.\n\n\n\nProtection Against Spam\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's so easy for unprotected comment sections to get bombarded by bots these days. A good free and open source option is AntiSpam Bee, which will moderate your comments for you. Occasionally, you'll run into false positives: you'll need to flag certain Pending Comments as legitimate, so that they'll get added to the replies on your post. \n\n\n\nFollowing Other Blogs\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe ActivityPub plugin can be further augmented through a plugin called Friends. Friends is strangely evocative of an earlier era of the blogosphere, one where apps like Blogger encouraged writers to follow each other's blogs automatically.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe current design is a little rough around the edges, but it offers huge potential as a way for WordPress blogs to follow each other via ActivityPub.\n\n\n\nEnable Mastodon Apps\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWant to post status updates and interact with the rest of the network from just WordPress? You can absolutely do this with the Enable Mastodon Apps plugin. It implements a lightweight subset of the Mastodon API, and works with the ActivityPub plugin.\n\n\n\nFrequently Asked Questions\n\n\n\nHow do I change the header on my blog's profile?\n\n\n\nCustomization for Blog Actors isn't supported yet. The current stable release pulls metadata from your site - the avatar and description are set from that point. Hopefully, this will soon be addressed by an upcoming release.\n\n\n\nI followed the blog, but I don't see any articles!\n\n\n\nIt may be that your instance has never had someone subscribe to your blog before. Try copying and pasting the URL to an article into the search box on your platform of choice. Most federated platforms include Webfinger functionality in the search box, allowing users to pull in remote ActivityPub content.\n","publisher":{"@id":"#Publisher","@type":"Organization","name":"We Distribute","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/wedistribute.org\/wp-content\/themes\/jannah-child-theme\/assets\/images\/logo@2x.png"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/facebook.com\/wedistribute","https:\/\/x.com\/wedistributeorg","https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/WeDistribute"]},"sourceOrganization":{"@id":"#Publisher"},"copyrightHolder":{"@id":"#Publisher"},"mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/wedistribute.org\/2023\/09\/connect-wordpress-to-the-fediverse\/","breadcrumb":{"@id":"#Breadcrumb"}},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Sean Tilley","url":"https:\/\/wedistribute.org\/author\/deadsuperhero\/"},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wedistribute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/wp-setup-ap.png?fit=888%2C514&ssl=1","width":1200,"height":514}}</script> </article> <div class="post-components"> <div id="support-us" class="banner"> <div class="descript"> <div class="banner-header"> <img class="banner-logo" src="https://wedistribute.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/cropped-favicon-redone.png" alt="We Distribute Logo"></img> <h1 class="banner-header">Help us explore further!</h1> </div> <p><b class="name">We Distribute</b> is an independent media publication dedicated to reporting on <u class="emphasis">User Empowerment</u>, <u class="emphasis">Decentralized Communication</u>, and <u class="emphasis">the future of the Internet</u>.
