One of the things that I would like to accomplish is federation of my WordPress website to other websites such as Mastodon and one day Bluesky. I have experimented with BridgyFed and ActivityPub before and thought I would try again with BridgyFed. @snarfed.org@snarfed.org (Ryan Barrett) has mentioned that it will support AT Protocol one day.
Steps
My steps included the ones below.
- Navigate to https://fed.brid.gy.
- Enter your URL.
- Receive the messages to setup redirection. I didn’t use the suggested plugin, I used the Redirection plugin. I am also posting this post because I want to remember the parameters that finally worked. 🙂
- Source: /.well-known/webfinger(.*)
- Target: https://fed.brid.gy/.well-known/webfinger$1
- Source: /.well-known/host-meta(.*)
- Target: https://fed.brid.gy/.well-known/host-meta$1
- Setup your h-card.
- Confirm the h-card works on IndieWebify.me
- I Ran into a little snag with updating the profile and @snarfed.org@snarfed.org fixed it.
- BridgyFed Part 1 is complete.
Part 2 will be figuring out how to get the posts to show up. It worked for a while and then stopped so that will be Part 2.
Summary
Setting up BridgyFed Part 1 – I started the setup of BridgyFed so that I can federate my website using BridgyFed. Read More > https://tmichellemoore.com/blog/bridgyfed-setup-part-1-website-and-profile-setup/
