I’ve run into an issue. Perhaps it’s an edge case. I set up one of my categories to use ActivityPub, but it’s not accessible on other platforms like Mastodon, and posts are not being federated because I can’t access and follow the category.
I think it might be an issue due to the capital “E” in the handle. Events@bayofislands.community
I have another category federated that works fine. You can see it in action at
The Bay of Islands Community is a vibrant, volunteer-run platform fostering connections and collaboration among residents of Newfoundland's scenic West Coast, empowering them with local news, resources, and opportunities for communal engagement and...
Any suggestions to get this to work without creating a whole new events category? Can I modify one or more records in the DB to update the username for the category?
I’m also noticing that the URL to follow a category is not working in Mastodon: Log in - Mastodon Newfoundland and Labrador

Thanks for the report. Change the E to a lowercase and it’ll work
I’ll fix this issue (i.e. handles with uppercase letters) soon.

I’m not sure this is a capitalization issue actually. Could I confirm the following:
you’re running the latest version of Discourse; and
you’re running the latest version of the ActivityPub plugin.

I realized one thing: the user created by ActivityPub Plugin does not have any group assigned to it, and does not have any emails.
Is it possible to assign custom groups to users created by ActivityPub Plugin?

This also resulted in a bug where if the category was set to TL0 could post (readonly for everyone), AP users may not post as they did not have this permission

There is also a bug here. If the SiteSettings.selectable_avatars_mode is set, even it was set to everyone, it will cause the AP user to lack avatars.

Jakke Lehtonen:
Can we delete followers?
This is ready to go, and is up for review after Tag Actors is merged.
discourse:main ← angusmcleod:admin_remove_followers
opened 11:52AM - 20 Apr 24 UTC
@pmusaraj Once https://github.com/discourse/discourse-activity-pub/pull/84 is me… rged, this is next (this is already based on the tags branch)
See further: https://meta.discourse.org/t/activitypub-plugin/266794/187?u=angus
Not yet. They’re staged users, so there’s a few limitations there. Perhaps a little further down the track.
Thanks for this report. I’ll take a closer look at this case soon. For now, you can set the posting permissions to everyone and it’ll work.
Thanks for this report too. I’ll take a closer look at this case soon too.

I think you need someone (or some ‘actor’) to follow the Category. See this:
Most likely because there is no-one following your category. If you turn on the site setting activity_pub_verbose_logging and look in your logs you will probably see a message that looks like this
I’m definitely going to put a “reason” in that modal as this has come up a few times now! Follow your category on Mastodon, and then create a new topic.
**edit or perhaps I will just change it to “published” in that scenario, as it does in fact add the activity to the outbox. It just doesn’t send it…

A feature request: Is it possible to silence or suspend accounts created by the activitypub plugin?
We have a user who seriously violated our terms of service and was permanently banned, but they ran to another forum that cooperates with us, and through activitypub, we can still see their posts there.
I tried to suspend them, but it didn’t work. (HTTP 422 Unprocessable Content)

This is such an awesome plugin - and indeed a key part of the quite exciting burgeoning fediverse - it really is amazing work!
Is it likely to be usable between private categories in different Discourse instances any time soon? I know that this is quite a different use-case from open federation, but it is one that I can imagine being very useful for facilitating collaboration in the context of more private / closed settings.

I’ve installed the activitypub plugin, and can see it is present and enabled in the admin settings. However when I go to the settings for a category, I don’t see an activitypub section there. The only slightly unusual thing is that I’m running a multisite configuration. Any ideas about what I’m missing/how to fix this appreciated!

Just a note that private categories can currently follow public categories. Private categories cannot currently be followed. Keep in mind that there is some tension in the idea of “following” a “private” Group, and that the concept is controversial in the Fediverse. That said, it may well be implemented, but it won’t be “soon”
The category settings have been moved to Admin > Plugins > ActivityPub. I will be updating the documentation in the OP soon!

Aha! I did see something about that above, but got to Admin > Plugins and didn’t see the menu at the top, so clicked ActivityPub in the list of plugins and ended up back here… Then tried going back and looking under the settings link… So might be good to clarify that, perhaps with a link to the category settings from activitypub settings.
Anyway, it seems to be working now thanks!
