   Is it safe to change the Profile ID of a blog profile? There is not warning against it on the settings page. Will it lose followers?

   Another question: if I use the reply bookmarklet, it seems to want to make a post on the site. Will that post be part of the site feed, like a normal post?

   Thanks for ActivityPub for WordPress - you have really built a great thing here.

     @seindal there is no migration process for changing the profile id (yet) and the general support in the fediverse is very limited, so you would indeed lose followers.

     Yes it will post the reply as regular post that is normally listed.

     Thanks 🙂

     Tim Chambers repeated this.

     @seindal we started working on a Move functionality, but the result was not really satisfying. Move was built to migrate accounts to different servers and is mainly (only) supported by mastodon. same server changes are not working very well right now.

     You can find some more details here: https://activitypub.blog/2025/06/24/what-we-shipped-so-far-in-2025/#:~:text=Move

     Thanks.

     I named the blog profile on a site "info" following the email used, but it was a mistake, as it doesn't work well on the fediverse. I should have repeated the domain instead.

     I'll wait changing it.
