    Our latest release brings a lot of improvements — especially to our blocks!

    The Follow Me and Followers blocks now have a fresh design, better interactivity, and broader support for ActivityPub-enabled users.

    A screenshot of the new 'Follow Me' Block!

    The Reactions block and “Reply on the Fediverse” feature also now take advantage of the latest Block Editor features and are built on the Interactivity API for a smoother experience.

    We’ll follow up soon with a deeper dive into the new block features — stay tuned!

    Beyond blocks, publishing new blog posts now reliably sends a Create activity to the Fediverse, so your followers won’t miss a thing. We’ve also improved how hashtags and @-mentions appear when posts federate to Mastodon and other platforms.

    Under the hood, we’ve cleaned up and modernized the codebase — and the plugin now requires WordPress 6.5 to take full advantage of the latest WordPress features.

    Meanwhile, we’re kicking off a major rework of the Followers/Following system. Expect more enhancements to roll out over the next few weeks. Plus, we’ll be publishing a blog post with our roadmap plans in the coming days — exciting things ahead! 🚀

    Full Changelog

    Added

    • Enhanced markup of the “follow me” block, for a better Webmention and IndieWeb support.
    • The actor of the replied-to post is now included in cc or to based on the post’s visibility.

    Changed

    • “Reply on the Fediverse” now uses the Interactivity API for display on the frontend.
    • Bumped minimum required WordPress version to 6.5.
    • Default avatar and error handling for the reactions popover list.
    • Ensured that publishing a new blog post always sends a Create to the Fediverse.
    • Followers block has an updated design, new block variations, and uses the Interactivity API for display on the frontend.
    • Follow Me and Followers blocks can now list any user that is Activitypub-enabled, even if they have the Subscriber role.
    • Likes and Reposts for comments to a post are no longer attributed to the post itself.
    • New system to manage followers and followings more consistently using a unified actor type.
    • Re-enabled HTML support in excerpts and summaries to properly display hashtags and @-replies, now that Mastodon supports it.
    • Refactored to use CSS for effects instead of JavaScript, simplifying the code.
    • Refine the plugin’s handling and storage of remote actor data.
    • The Follow Me block now uses the latest Block Editor technology for display on the frontend.
    • The Reactions block now uses the latest Block Editor technology for display on the frontend.

    • Fixes a bug in WordPress 6.5 where the plugin settings in the Editor would fail to render, due to a backwards compatibility break.

    • Improved excerpt handling by removing shortcodes from summaries.

      @activitypub.blog Assuming that's one of the new blocks after 2nd paragraph in the blog post, the next/previous buttons are not changing the 3 followers listed
