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. Microformats.org h-card reference or IndieWeb.org h-card reference. 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.  https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/778 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.

Your h-entries should have, at minimum, the following properties:

  • e-content — the main content of the post
  • p-name — if your post is an article with a name, use this classname.
  • dt-published — the datetime the post was published at, in ISO8601 format, with a timezone
  • u-url — the canonical URL of the post, especially important on pages listing multiple posts

It’s a common convention for the published datetime to be a link to the post itself, but they can be separate if you want.

There should also be some way to discover the author of the post — either link to your homepage (which should have your h-card on it) from anywhere within the body of the page with rel=author, or optionally embed a p-author h-card in the h-entry.

The web is an expressive medium, and as such there are many other properties which you can add to your posts. Check out the h-entry documentation for a full list.
