“I’ve decided to stop involving into the #WordPress #community following the way WordPress leadership decided to prevent some users to benefit from WordPress.org API services just because they were customers of a specific #hosting company.”

You cannot use #Activitypub with the #Buddypress plugin. I'm surprised no one has reported this to the #WordPress developers community.

The problem is that ActivityPub wants to use a different author URL from WordPress/BuddyPress, so nothing gets populated.

As best I can determine the permalinks that BuddyPress forces are simply too incongruous with what WordPress+ActivityPub thinks should be presented.

Has anyone gotten this combination to work?

Weiß wer Rat? #WordPress #BuddyPress

Wenn ich das #SocialV-Theme von #Iqonic hinter einem htaccess-Passwortschutz mit Demo-Content installiere, erhalte ich in der linken Sidebar mehrere »Unauthorized«-Fehlermeldungen. Deaktiviere ich den htaccess-Passwortschutz kurzzeitig, verschwinden die Fehler. das ist aber auf Test- und Demoumgebungen keine Option.

Die Support-Antwort ist leider wenig hilfreich, mein Webhoster möchte für die Analyse (verständlicherweise) Geld sehen.

Das schrieb der Iqonic-Support:

My podcast interview with the #BuddyPress folks is out now. BuddyPress is a wonderful #WordPress plugin that can turn your site into a message-board, or help you manage user accounts. It was cool to hear what the team has been working on lately, but I was most excited when we started talking about the possibility of #ActivityPub integration in a future version.

A beautiful day. I’m at Haus Coffee, editing a recent interview with iMath and David Cavins about a huge new update coming to #BuddyPress, a #WordPress plugin that powers forums and online communities. I was really excited to talk about the “BuddyVerse” a long term goal to enable federation between BuddyPress sites. Possibly powered by #ActivityPub. To hear the episode when it comes out, subscribe to Press This: A WordPress Community Podcast on your favorite podcasting app.

Hadn't thought about this, enabled Buddypress & bbPress on sirtaptap.com as a test and just now noticed I got about 500 spam registrations.

Usually akismet/cloudflare keeps spam low and deletes stuff but I guess for users they don't apply.

Not too much bad a spam user can do on my site, but I went and deleted 'em and added a Cloudflare managed challenge.

Any advice from people using social features on Wordpress? I'm looking at adding forums
