Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:20:32 Are you trying to verify your website link on your Mastodon profile? Is it not working? Is it failing to turn green? If so, try some of the suggestions on this troubleshooting list: ➡️ https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-verify-my-account/#MyWebsiteVerificationDoesntWork If none of these work, try putting the verification in your site's header instead (details are in the same guide just below the troubleshooting list). |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:25:47 all else failed. link "passed all checks" but still not verified despite resaving profile. can't control cloudflare settings of my website either |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:28:08 Did the header not work either? |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:29:19 i did put it in the header but i still don't see it turning green on my profile. |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:32:00 Did you try editing and saving your profile after putting it in the header? It only checks if you save it afterwards. |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:32:15 @FediTips yes |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:36:18 Okay... I'm sorry I couldn't help 😦 Very frustrating that cloudflare settings aren't available to try 😞 |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:38:47 yes... I don't have the budget right now to rent a VPS at the moment so I'm stuck with my registrar's (weebly) or payhip's CMS |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:59:42 Hey, someone else had problems and removing the link from their profile, saving, then adding the link back and saving again worked. Might be worth a try? (I've just added this to the troubleshooting list because it worked for them.) |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 23:16:25 Hi, I just tried that, still doesn't work. |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 23:21:55 Okay, sorry about that, thanks for trying anyway. |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 20:42:50 @FediTips Thanks! this helped me finally verify my blog with a header link! |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:00:41 Brilliant, really happy to hear that! 🥳 |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:03:46 @FediTips do you have any info about verifying other socials etc.? I'm stuck on Pixelfed not going green. |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:24:52 It should work with any site or platform that links back to your Mastodon account using the "rel=me" standard. In theory this was supposed to be everywhere, but Facebook, Google etc refused to play ball so for the moment it's just on sites that adhere to the standard like Mastodon etc. I had a look round Pixelfed's Github and you've done everything correctly, I'm not sure why it isn't working on your profile 🤔 https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/3844 |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:27:42 @FediTips thanks for checking that up. Yeah I used this too > https://mastodon-link-debugger.vercel.app/ and seems all good, followed some instructions precisely. Maybe just gotta wait it out..🤷♂️ |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:36:32 Maybe try removing it from your Mastodon profile and then re-adding it? |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:39:26 @FediTips Bingo!! thanks |
Föderation EN So 11.05.2025 22:52:43 Oooh nice, brilliant! 🥳 So cool that it worked! I've added this tactic to the troubleshooting list. |
