hello, I am doing some tests with the Wordpress federation with ActivityPub. It works very well even with Lemmy:

but

  • however, if the user receives a reply, in this case, the reply is given by "testuser," the latter is not visible in the Wordpress article (in the article, in fact, only Martufello's first response is present.).

Is it a Lemmy bug?

Thanks.

Thank you very much, this is very interesting. Being both the admin of the WordPress blog and the Lemmy instance, I now need to understand which of the two is having issues.

The ActivityPub plugin seems to work well; I also recently resolved some problems that were solely due to a third-party caching plugin.

I read your article; is it possible to know, if publicly discussable, what changes were made to the plugin that allowed you to resolve the issues? This way, I can compare them with mine and understand what the problem might be.

Thanks!

Ok perfect, now everything is clear to me then :)

What you did is the actual federation of the site, so every time you create a post you don't mention a community where it should appear, but it gets federated automatically and displayed within dbzer0 not as a real community but must necessarily be searched for.

What I'm trying to do is slightly different.

Currently, I have the first setting active, that is, only federated authors. An author when posting content can mention a community, in this case @[email protected], and the post will automatically be posted in that community (which is a real community of feddit.it, in the sense that it is actually present in the list of communities and anyone can write there).

For this reason, the bug "persists," meaning that only the first responses are displayed on the site while the responses to the responses are not.

If instead I change the type of federation and use yours, I can also see the responses.

Ah, this is probably due to you posting as a note, and not as an article. You might need to open a bug report.
