Do you have a WordPress blog?

You can turn it into a Fediverse server using a simple plug-in. This means that people on Mastodon can follow it just like they follow any account on here.

Here's more info about how to do it:

(NOTE: This doesn't work on free blogs hosted by wordpress.com)

The plugin is totally free. If you appreciate the plugin, remember to send its maker @pfefferle some donations at https://notiz.blog/donate

@feditips @pfefferle when you go to the url will it still show your blog or will it show mastodon?

@feditips @pfefferle finally got this working for this past weekend! Excellent plug-in.

@feditips @pfefferle Just installed on ClassicPress, but I don't think it's a good idea to post the whole blog article to the Fediverse, so I configured it to post only title, link, and hashtags.

@feditips @pfefferle Is there a way to do this that can be tied to say my current account here, even though the blog is on a different domain?

@feditips @pfefferle This is genius! Perfect for our Wordpress blog. Thanks much for the tip!

@feditips oh WOW :squee: this looks like something I need to set up. Thanks for this tip! @pfefferle

Thank you! This is awesome. I'm going to do this. I'm pulling MojoWriter.com down from Tumblr, putting it back on my WordPress server, importing the Tumblr stuff into it, and then am going to connect it to the Fediverse. 😄

I should make an equivalent plugin for #GravCMS

@feditips got it working yesterday morning but I needed to install his WebFinger plugin too, and if it's a multisite, you need to activate both plugins on each blog.

The docs for configuring it aren't very good unfortunately.

Being a blogger, of course I wrote a blog post about it, which you can find at my blog's Mastodon address of @donncha@odd.blog or on the boring old web at https://odd.blog/2022/11/06/how-to-add-your-blog-to-mastodon/ :)
