Now that automatic login is working, let’s see if the tracking file works.

I opted to just set it, instead of trying to wrap it into the config option that auth took.

(setq org2blog/wp-track-posts (list "org2blog.org" "technomage.net"))

And while messing with this post I decided to go super old school and grab the 2012 wordpress theme.

Of course it wasn’t that easy. A little more testing on my part and using webfinger would have probably helped. Oh well.

location = /.well-known/webfinger {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}

location = /.well-known/nodeinfo {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}

I had to add a little glue to my nginx configuration, otherwise queries were not routed to the right place.

Of course now, this is another live test after I have successfully followed my blog from main mastodon account, so… fingers crossed!

Edit: And now that I have added src code plugin, let’s see if this looks better.

One of the things that has been frustrating sometimes is that I want to make a longer post on #mastodon, but run into the character limits. I appreciate the character limits, I really do, but there are times when I want to be a little more verbose.

I’ve looked at possibly running something like writefreely, or one of the other #ActivityPub first platforms. But then I remembered that wordpress had a plugin. And the most recent iteration of my website is running on wordpress, although, up until today it was running on a host in my house and a static export of that was being uploaded to the server.

One of the other things that I wanted to have was the ability to work on blog posts in an efficient way using #emacs. So now I have org2blog plugged into my emacs configuration.

As this is my first post using this conglomeration of tools and tech, we’ll see if it works, or if I have a succession of “did it work this time?” posts…
