I’ve installed the ActivityPub plugin and enabled syndication links, but when I go to the API page it says to click “get token” to get an access token from my user page on Bridgy — I have logged into Bridgy with Mastodon and BlueSky but there is no “get token” button on my user pages for those services.

]]>Is there any documentation on how to setup Custom Webmention Syndication?
]]>The Syndication Links plugin works fine, but is there some way to display a Mastodon icon when posting a Mastodon URL?
]]>This seems to have started recently (possibly since the specific option was removed from the settings) but my post formatting now seems to be sent via Bridgy micropub.
As a result, most posts are exceeding the character limit and being posted as links.
I’ve definitely seen some <svg> and <blockquote> tags appearing but I don’t have any examples to share right now.
]]>Since the most recent update of this plugin (4.4.6), the boxes to manually add already-syndicated links no longer appear on the post edit page.
It’s still possible to add a custom field with the mf2_syndication name, but those fields are still hidden, so it’s not possible to modify them.
]]>The syndication block appears in the page/post content when no syndication links are present. Additionally, it’s showing on pages when the page type is turned off in the settings.
]]>How can I enable the syndications link field on a custom post type? I setup the post type with Pods.io and can’t find a way to associate this field. Additionally, I tried Jeremy Felt’s Shortnotes plugin and Jan Boddez’s IndieBlocks plugin and couldn’t find a way to display it there. I am sure I could dig down into PHP to do this, but that isn’t my strong suit. Additionally, I am not sure I could maintain this. Thank you!
]]>Hi,
I’m trying to use the plugin to syndicate to Mastodon using Bridgy, but can’t seem to get it to work. I’m logged in on Bridgy with my Mastodon account I can see my website url there, but nothing happens when I check the option to syndicate.
By the way, does this use webmentions to Bridgy?
]]>I set up Webmentions and Syndication Link (the latest versions of both). The feed at https://islandinthenet.com/feed/json/?microdotblog=1 does not update when new items are published.
]]>In the Syndication Links admin page (https://islandinthenet.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=syndication_links), the list of providers under the “Enable the Following Providers”, is blank.
]]>When I try to publish a new post, it fails with this error message:
Publishing failed. The mf2_syndication property has an invalid stored value, and cannot be updated to null.
If I disable Syndication Links, I can publish the post. I can then reactivate the plug-in after publishing and it works with no problems. I can update and save the post and add syndication links. It displays fine.
Is this error message enough to indicate the problem?
]]>With is theme we are able to write blog posts, posts and items
posts are the categories you see on the home page
Items are the bots you see listed once you choose from the home page
these too things allow my site to be found on sites like mastodon but the page I have linked with all our blogposts on does not allow this to happen witch I would like to of we could
]]>In the Syndication Links admin page, the list of providers under the “Enable the Following Providers”, is blank.
]]>Due to legacy formatting I required for my blog’s previous life in Movable Type, I use custom templates for every post format except standard – that’s the only one in which I use the_content(), so syndication links won’t display for any other post. Is there manual code I can add to my other templates to compensate for this?
]]>I’m tweaking my WordPress syndication links and I have a question:
I’m reading the part at the bottom of the syndication links settings page under the Micro.blog section and it says:
Micro.blog requires you to add a feed under your account settings. Micro.blog polls that feed and uses it to create posts on the service. In order for you to use the syndication feature in this plugin, you need to remove all feeds and replace them with the one below and set your micro.blog username in your WordPress user profile. By default this using the JSONfeed if installed, otherwise RSS. This feed is generated by the same triggers used by the other providers. Please check to make sure the feed is working properly. A few seconds after publishing the plugin will poll micro.blog to get the link.
How do I do the bold part? What does that mean?
]]>It would be useful if this interface is available using a custom taxonomy.
]]>Hi David,
I love your plugin, but your latest update broke the “customizer” (under Appearance). When we deactivated the plugin, it started working again. Could you please fix it?
Thank you.
]]>Not essential but I would not mind adding modify the output of this plugin in some circumstances. Are their filters to do so and where are they documented?

]]>I love the plugin but I think it needs to add nofollow to outbound links, I don’t want to be giving link juice to silos:
e.g. rel=”syndication nofollow”
]]>First thanks for this plugin! I’m just getting used to IndieWeb related plugins, and I think the idea has great potential. I was just about to hack the plugin for my site, but I thought it would be much nicer to help improving the original plugin instead of doing my own thing. ??
I discovered that the HMTL output of the function get_syndication_links is not valid, if one provides a text_before text, because an ul-element must only contain li-elements, not even text. That may result in a strange browser behaviours, as in my current theme.
I have some suggestions to improve the HTML output:
1. Replace line 238 $synlinks = '<span class="relsyn"><ul>' . $options['text_before']; with something like $synlinks = '<span class="relsyn">' . $options['text_before'] . '<ul>';
2. A minor thing: Currently the CSS class naming convention is not very consistent (.relsyn, .u-syndication, .syn-name), so I’d suggest namespacing the classes: .syndication-links, .syndication-links-name, etc. (or if that’s too long e.g. .synlinks, .synlinks-name, etc.)
3. A minor thing: For individual styling it would help to apply a class to the ul-element (e.g. .syndication-links-list) and wrap $options[‘text_before] inside a span-element with a separate class (e.g. .syndication-links-text-before).
4. Alternative/Addition 1: Moving the HTML to a template file, which can be overridden by the theme.
5. Alternative/Addition 2: Provide a filter hook, so that one can modify the HTML output of the function get_syndication_links.
Besides that I have a feature question: Would it be possible to add an option to show the syndication links only on the full post, not the teaser on the homepage?
Thank you
]]>I am intrigued by this plugin. But I don’t get it.
I am not well-versed in web dev. I don’t know “rel-syndication/u-syndication”, “rel-me links”, etc. So though the description seems straight-forward, I am too basic, I have very little idea of the purpose, goal, of the plugin. An example of why you would use it perhaps – what problem does it solve?
Thank you
I have MultiSite networks – I do not think that is in the plugin’s scope.
