A frequently requested improvement I want to highlight: The title in the Reactions block is now fully customizable, as it's using a heading block internally.

We'll have more block updates in 6.0.0!

@perksofbeingben Thanks, that's super helpful! Some of these things will be fixed/improved with the next version when most blocks move to using the Interactivity API. https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-activitypub/archive/refs/heads/try/reply-block-interactivity.zip contains the updated Follow Me, Reactions, and Remote Reply blocks if you want to try them out ahead of release.

ActivityPub 5.9.0 for WordPress just dropped, and I couldn't be more excited!

Check out our brand new Onboarding experience!

@NickBohle @tchambers @pfefferle None of them are super accurate, I'm afraid. There's overlap between the Active Installation number and the number of sites hosted by a8c. Anything on FediDB, and sites like it, relies on pinging instances, so there's a huge long tail of low-traffic sites that they don't pick up.

Monthly Active Users is probably a more meaningful metric—we're in this to make it a rewarding experience that folks want to come back to!

@epiphyt_en If you like that drop-in you’ll love https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-activitypub/pull/1648 🙂

@manualdousuario @pfefferle Try disabling dez_custom_posts_arquivos and dez_pesquisar_post_types maybe? Not sure. But they set the post type to post.

@manualdousuario @pfefferle Yeah, these are blog posts. Are there other plugins that filter WP_Query args by any chance? Have you tried disabling all other plugins and purging cache?

@manualdousuario @pfefferle Interesting! Browserpub shows what looks like 1000s of entries. Are those blog posts? https://browser.pub/https://manualdousuario.net/?author=1

@manualdousuario @pfefferle It looks like there are a ton of extra fields that get delivered there. I'd recommend checking https://manualdousuario.net/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=ap_extrafield and removing any that you don't need.

Another highlight from 5.8.0:
You can now embed any Fediverse post in the WordPress editor—even if it doesn’t support oEmbed! When no oEmbed handler is available, we automatically fall back to our custom embed view.

Basically: if it’s on the Fediverse, you can embed it. ✨

ActivityPub 5.8.0 for WordPress is out now! 🎉

This update includes two things I’ve been especially excited about: new email templates and user-specific notification settings.

Emails now have way more information—mentions and direct messages embed the full post, and the refreshed design looks more modern and polished. New follower emails come with a profile card to help you get a sense of who’s engaging with your content.
