Tried on 2 free #Infinityfree #Wordpress installs and can't make #ActivityPub work. No errors or anything, but just can't see the sites/users in Mastodon. ActivityPub-plugin support suggested that there maybe something wrong in the setup. I guess so too. Would be great to know what and if it can be fixed. It's free to install a Wordpress-site there and investigate for someone who knows how the plugin works. @pfefferle

@pfefferle I'm sure I wont be the last one to ask this about Infinityfree, because it's free hosting with almost everything.

@bhasic sadly it seems to be an issue with the hosting setup https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-in-infinityfree/

@pfefferle I upgraded the site to ifastnet premium hosting and still doesn't work. New adress: https://kulttuurimarxismi.eu

@bhasic there seems to be still a caching issue.
```
curl "https://kulttuurimarxismi.eu/things-are-going-well/" \
-H 'Accept: application/activity+json'
```
This should return JSON, but it returns HTML.

@bhasic now the WebFinger endpoint does no longer find the resource parameter https://kulttuurimarxismi.eu/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct%3Abhasic%40kulttuurimarxismi.eu

@pfefferle Site is in subdirectory so I added RedirectMatch "^\/\.well-known/(webfinger|nodeinfo|x-nodeinfo2)(.*)$" /blog/.well-known/$1$2
in .htaccess and now webfinger seems to work, but still nothing in Mastodon.

@bhasic something with the redirect seems broken, it only redirects me to the blog folder, but I can only see HTML, not JSON.

@pfefferle domain is kulttuurimarxismi.eu but the site is at talouspuolue.com/kulttuurimarxismi/ as its own wordpress install.

Föderation EN Di 12.12.2023 15:37:04
@bhasic it doesn't matter in which folder it is in the filesystem... the important part is how the domain is configured. if the site loads under kulttuurimarxismi.eu everything is fine, if it loads under talouspuolue.com/kulttuurimarxismi/ you have to have a redirect at the root of talouspuolue.com that redirects to /kulttuurimarxis

@pfefferle OK, removed the line from .htaccess and now webfinger is back at "missing "resource" parameter"
Matthias Pfefferle (@pfefferle@mastodon.social)

@bhasic you can also deinstall the webfinger and nodeinfo plugin. these are optional. after you have deinstalled both, try to deactivate and reactivate the ActivityPub plugin.

@bhasic it seems that mod_rewrite is not passing the GET params the API endpoint.

@bhasic do you use the classic mod_rewrite .htaccess setup of WordPress?
Elon Muksis (@bhasic@mastodon.social)
Föderation EN Di 12.12.2023 15:54:49
@pfefferle There are lines from Really Simple Security, Wordfence and WP Hide & Security Enhancer. WP Hide could be the problem.

@pfefferle Uninstalled them all and seems like Really Simple SSL .htaccess line was the problem.
#BEGIN Really Simple SSL LETS ENCRYPT
RewriteRule ^.well-known/(.*)$ - [L]
#END Really Simple SSL LETS ENCRYPT
#Begin Really Simple Security

@pfefferle Would be awesome to get a solution for this, because it's like the idea of the site to media be found in Mastodon.

@bhasic this is only the default. you have to see "Media" in the settings.

@pfefferle Of course. Anyway the media checkbox is visible there just like in the screenshot. Selecting it just doesn't make my attachment posts federate.

@bhasic what would you expect as content? Empty?
(the images comes as attachment)
Elon Muksis (@bhasic@mastodon.social)
Föderation EN Di 19.12.2023 00:04:05
@pfefferle What attachment post type has. Ttile, media file, (I dont need caption and description, but they should be optional), alt. Everything as optional would be perfect. For me and other MLA-users, MLA's attachment tags and categories would be great.
