Sven222<span class="h-card"><a href="https://troet.cafe/users/derentspannende" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>derentspannende</span></a></span> <a href="https://soc.hardwarepunk.de/search?tag=ClassicPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClassicPress</span></a> wollte ich mir ja schon länger mal anschauen. Es gibt auch ein paar Kritikpunkte, aber auf hohem Niveau. Man findet einfach keine schon mal vorbereitet Konfig für den Ngnix oder Apache, da könnte man die Doku etwas verbessern. Ich hab jetzt eine von einer meiner WP Seite herkopiert und angepasst. Dann geht der Downloadlink aus der Installationsanleitung nicht mit wget (403, im Browser sieht man, dass der Link irgendwie bei Aufruf umgeschrieben wird), also erstmal auf den Rechner ziehen, dann per SCP rüberkopieren. Ab jetzt läuft die Installation zügig durch, logischerweise etwas aufwändiger als eine Installation ohne Datenbank. Plugins und Themes von WP können direkt eingebunden werden. Kann mir das gerade für größere Sachen gut vorstellen, wird weiter beobachtet und ein wenig damit gespielt. Läuft gerade hier zum testen: <a href="https://classicpress.hardwarepunk.de/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">classicpress.hardwarepunk.de</a>

richard<p><strong>Conversing to the Fediverse With WordPress</strong></p><p><span class=""><span class="">Reading Time: </span> <span class=""> &lt; 1</span> <span class="">minute</span></span></p><p>Recently I saw a post stating that WordPress can speak with the fediverse more effectively. For months we could post to the fediverse but if we replied to a toot via WordPress it would be lost. Those on Mastodon instances would comment but be "ignored".</p><p>For months I thought that it was bizarre that WordPress would only broadcast to the fediverse, but not allow for two way chats to occur. I found this frustrating because if people did comment on a post I'd have to use another account to answer, and acknowledge that comment.</p><p>Yesterday I saw my blog post in the fediverse so I commented on it, and then I replied within my blog, and then I replied to my reply, and was able to have a threaded exchange between the fediverse and my wordpress blog. I believe that this would work with ClassicPress too.</p><p>The reason for which this is significant is that from now on, we do not need to use Mastodon or other fediverse instances to be part of the fediverse. We can use our blogs as Fediverse instances. The barrier to entry for the fediverse has been lowered.</p><p><strong>And Finally</strong></p><p>Yesterday I was toying with the idea of restarting a Mastodon instance until I experimented with the chat ability of WordPress and the Fediverse and when I saw that it works well now that desire to setup an instance went away. We could now share photos without the need for Pixelfed or other solutions.</p><p>The next step would be to experiment with ClassicPress.</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.main-vision.com/richard/blog/tag/classicpress/" target="_blank">#classicpress</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.main-vision.com/richard/blog/tag/conversation/" target="_blank">#conversation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.main-vision.com/richard/blog/tag/fediverse/" target="_blank">#fediverse</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.main-vision.com/richard/blog/tag/wordpress/" target="_blank">#wordpress</a></p>
