In reply to: [ActivityPub] Time for Manual GuideYes, of course, please share my points for further use.
Thank you for the link to your presentation. Normally I prefer reading, but this one seems to be full of content and I will watch it with interest.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [ActivityPub] Time for Manual GuideThank you for your prompt reaction! Please, find below some items for the possible Manual Guide that I think would be useful for novice / lay users to get to know:
- What does the plugin do and what cannot it do? (In simple terms. This could be a short recap of what ActivityPub actually is, and what users can achieve with it, as well as what are the limitations. Possible questions:
- Is it possible to delete / edit the ActivityPub post once it has been published by the plugin?
- Are posts permanent, or can they have a (pre-)determined duration?
- What happens (if anything) if the author edits the blog post once it has been published?
- Installation and configuration (simple description of Settings, with examples).
- A more detailed description of the Hashtags beta feature with screenshot examples.
- Explanation of the Server section in Settings.
- Presentation with examples of how commenting works. Is it possible to approve / edit / delete comments by the blog author (in the blog website, in the ActivityPub author profile)?
- Can user change the avatar of the ActivityPub author profile, and how?
- How does the ActivityPub author’s profile work? Is it possible that it observes other Fediverse profiles? Can user edit / customise this profile?
These are some questions that lay users may have (or at least I have them ?? ). It is possible that you will find other important components for the Manual that I have not yet the idea about, eg. with regard to integrating the ActivityPub plugin with recommended plugins. I haven’t experimented with these features also for that reason that I am not sure what would be the consequences for the blog website.
I hope this helps.
Overall, I think that the plugin is a great idea and an interesting way to connect blogs and their authors with readers.
