Do you use Mastodon? Do you have a WordPress site? Starting today, you can use the Jetpack plugin to automatically publish your posts to your Mastodon account.

When writing new posts or editing existing posts in the WordPress editor, you have the option to automatically share that post (alongside with some text and an image) with your Fediverse followers.

Give it a try and let us know what you think! We'll continue to iterate on the feature in the next few weeks, and would be happy with any feedback you may have. :)

Note: we've developed the feature with Mastodon in mind, but we know there are dozens of microblogging tools allowing you to post to the Fediverse today. Our integration already works with some of those tools out of the box, but not all. We're definitely aiming to support other aspects of the Fediverse in the future.

And another note: maybe you'd rather have your site become its own ActivityPub actor? That's possible, too! You can install the ActivityPub plugin, and each author on your site will have their own ActivityPub account, where each one of their new posts will be pushed.

@jeremy What if we use another #Fediverse service than #Mastodon? Does your #Jetpack_plugin work with #Calckey for exemple?

@Bigou Check my full post by clicking on the "Show more" button; I talked about this a bit in my post.

In practice, I don't believe it will work with Calckey yet.

@jeremy Thanks for the honest response, along with your good work on the plugins and informing peoples about it.

@jeremy @Bigou how does it work specifically? Calckey has a very basic Mastodon API compatibility layer, including making posts.
Show threadJeremy HerveJun 6, 2023
@kainoa @Bigou We do rely on Mastodon API endpoints indeed. I'd be happy to create an issue detailing the endpoints we use if you'd like!

@jeremy @Bigou yes please!

@kainoa @Bigou I created an issue here with some details:

Let me know if you need more!

Interop with Jetpack plugin's auto-posting -- Mastodon API endpoint compat

The [Jetpack plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/) for WordPress was recently updated to include a service that auto-publishes posts you published on your WordPress site to your Mastodon account. I talked a bit about it in this post: https://fedi.jeremy.hu/@jeremy/statuses/01H28PHR1QQ8AE2AHRDWTWDV6B > Note: we've developed the feature with Mastodon in mind, but we know there are dozens of microblogging tools allowing you to post to the Fediverse today. Our integration already works with some of those tools out of the box, but not all. We're definitely aiming to support other aspects of the Fediverse in the future. @thatonecalculator [reached out](https://calckey.social/notes/9fo654kxa1cof6ch) on to find out more about our implementation, and how we could work together to ensure that the service could be used with Calckey as well. Here are the endpoints that we use in the Jetpack service: ### Authentication This mostly follows [the Mastodon docs](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/oauth/). We use the following endpoints: - `oauth/token` - `oauth/authorize` - `oauth/token` - `api/v1/accounts/verify_credentials` - `oauth/revoke` Testing with calckey.social today, I see that the request to `https://calckey.social/oauth/authorize` is redirected to `https://calckey.social/auth/`, which then fails. ### App registration and posting I couldn't test those with Calckey since I couldn't get past the registration. - `api/v1/apps` ([Mastodon docs]( https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/apps/#create)) - `api/v2/instance` to fetch details about the instance ([Mastodon docs](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/instance/#v2)) - `api/v2/media` to upload media ([Mastodon docs](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/media/#v2) Is there any additional info I could / should provide? Should this be its own issue, or would you prefer to keep everything tracked at #9637?
