      @pfefferle hi! I’ve installed the plugin on my site nescia.nl/anna, which is a sub-blog using Wordpress multisite. It has created @anna but doesn’t seem to post anything. (There is a subsite “anna” and a user “anna” which posts most but not all blogs on the site.) Are there things I need to configure in the plugin?

        @venite @anna that is, because WordPress does not support subfolder blogs out of the box.

        I hope this helps: https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-activitypub/blob/trunk/docs/how-to/wordpress-in-a-subdir.md

          @pfefferle I saw that, but isn’t the multisite thing native wordpress? That is, nescia.nl is a Wordpress site itself and /anna is one of multiple subsites. Won’t I break those?

            @venite this is mainly a specification issue/requirement. WebFinger (Mastodon uses that for @username@domain.tld identifiers) has to run in the domain root. So if you map this root WebFinger handler to one of the subfolder blogs, this will be the only one that is possible to federate. This is why we do not have a default handling for that. Happy to explain it in more detail (not that easy with only 500 chars 😉😞

                  @pfefferle yes… stop people from posting entire 6 page articles on here. It ruins the timelines and makes everything unreadable! 😵‍💫

                      @pfefferle Could you recommend a trick to auto insert the Reactions Block under all posts on a classic theme? For example, I could add it using an 'ad inserter' if there was a shortcode. Could I do something similar with a copy-pasted snippet of full code? Thanks!

                                  @pfefferle I seem to have stumbled at the first hurdle.

                                  "After adding this code, you'll see a Template Parts option in your WordPress admin under Appearance."

                                  But I don't. I added the new function to a couple of blogs with no apparent change to the Appearance menu. There is a Patterns option but that was already there. Is that the same thing as Template Parts?

                                      @pfefferle No, because the first step apparently hasn't worked, so I didn't move onto the next step. More likely, I'm misunderstanding the instructions. Are you saying the Template Parts option in the admin under Appearance will only appear if I create a parts folder (with e.g. FTP), and put the specified html file in it (with e.g. FTP)?

                                        @pfefferle So, I created the parts folder containing the html file as suggested. There's still no Templates Parts menu option immediately under Appearance, but if I go to Patterns, there are now options 'All Template Parts' and 'General'. This matches the screenshot in the instructions, but differs to the text in your instructions. Instruction say Appearance > Editor > Template Parts; but (for me at least) it is Appearance > Patterns).

                                          @pfefferle I also added the php snippet to the post template as per the final step. But no block appears on the front end. I put a little test <p>position for fediverse block</p> alongside the php snippet and that appears on the front end, so the location is correct.

                                          So, no idea what I'm doing wrong, I've double checked every step. The site I'm trying to set it up on is https://monstertoyblog.com
