So there's an issue between the WordPress ActivityPub plugin and the Block Visibility plugin. ActivityPub just published some content that I had marked as "Visible only for Admins"

#WordPress friends!
I've got a bunch of WordPress posts and I'd like to export them into "proper documents". I'd take PDF or DOCX formats, I'd just like the images and links to survive the export process.
I can export everything as a giant XML file but most online converter choke on the size (9mb). I tried using Claude to write a script to save them as DOC files but I kept getting errors.
Who knew this would be so hard?
Today I decided to answer the daily prompt on WordPress. I don't often do it, but sometimes I have an answer. Today's was what I would sell if I had a shop.

Sätze, die mit eigentlich anfangen… Eigentlich hatte ich #wordpress aus diversen Gründen nach Jahren den Rücken gekehrt und mich mit #StaticSiteGenerators angefreundet. Aber unneigentlich finde ich das was @pfefferle da in Bezug auf WP und Fediverse treibt so spannend, dass ich geneigt bin, noch mal neu zu beginnen. Auch wenn das bedeutet, sich mit dem ganzen Block-Editor / Site-Editor Gedöns mal „richtig“ zu beschäftigen. Mal gucken, ob ich im kommenden Urlaub mal was anteste.

Let’s say I was considering self-hosting a Ghost blog as a replacement/upgrade for my very-long-running wordpress based blog?
Are there good import tools for thousands of posts, images (cloud hosted and not) etc?
Inquiring FediMinds want to know! :)
And if you have opinions on Wordpress vs. Ghost, I’d be interested in hearing them. I don't have anything against WP per-se. Just interested in new kinds of blogging stuff.

An edited AI image. I made it a while ago, and edited it again, in another way, so I could re-use it for today's blog post.
It was a difficult post to write. But it did help me to process things a bit better...

Bridging the gap
The fediverse aims for a truly decentralized, interoperable social web, yet the landscape is still fragmented. Bridgy Fed helps close those gaps by letting ActivityPub-enabled WordPress sites form real two-way connections with networks like Bluesky. With the ActivityPub plugin activated, you can link your blog to Bluesky in a few clicks. After that, posts, follows, likes, and replies flow natively between the two worlds.

It's one of the lesser-known yet brilliant aspects of the #Fediverse . And it's pretty easy to do, too - for example, I did it with a simple #WordPress plugin:
The staff cartographers over here at HeroPress have invented some new continents. Be advised. #WordPress #maps #cartography https://heropress.com/new-continents/
HeroPress · New Continents!A post about adding Central America and the Middle East as continents on HeroPress.
I've updated the Simple #MathJax #WordPress plugin to add support for MathJax 4: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-mathjax/
WordPress.orgSimple MathjaxYet another plugin to add MathJax support to your wordpress blog. Just wrap your equations inside $ signs and MathJax will render them visually.
#Wordpress Posts im Fediverse sind offenbar für Mastodon-Leute sehr unpraktisch zu lesen. Ich hab im #ActivityPub Plugin von @pfefferle gesucht, ob sich da eine Art „Teaser mit Link zum Beitrag" einstellen lässt, aber nichts gefunden.
Hat irgendwer eine Lösung? Liegt es an der generellen Blog-Einstellung?

Danke @simon für den Einblick in den Cyber Resilience Headache äh Act. Hab vorhin gar nicht erwähnt: ich werde vermutlich erstmal schauen wie die "großen" damit umgehen und es dann abgucken.
Ich sehe auch, dass du in 2 Wochen bei @hgg beim #WordPress #meetup in #Attendorn bist. Tipp an die Teilnehmer dort: man sollte sitzen wenn man Simon bei diesem Thema zuhört. :) #cyberresilienceact
Hmm the #WordPress ActivityPub integration seems to have stopped sending unpublish events, and the Fediverse Preview doesn’t seem to match what’s published anymore. ~~Wish there was a gitlab/hub/codeberg type repo to post issues on.~~
Edit - there is! Not sure how I missed this before : https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-activitypub

"Networked publishing, native analytics, and $100M earned by indie publishers "
"Ghost publications are now connected with an open network.
People can discover, follow, like and reply to your posts across #Bluesky, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Mastodon, #WordPress, #Ghost, and any other social web platform.
Distribution is now built-in."
hmm...
Mastodon wouldn't be a bit of an afterthought or anything. eh?
Or is Mastodon just another step toward Global Media Domination(tm)?
(Somebody hopes, anyway...)
