Disabling actor not possible?

Support
1

I noticed that deleting an already set actor for a category is currently not possible. This leads to a contradictory UI: the slider in the right says “disabled” while the federation banner shows “active”. You can “disable” it with the slider and the banner switches to “Not Active”. But as soon as you “save actor” it flips back to “active”.

The image shows an "Edit Actor" interface with a blue "Documentation" button marked as active, a URL field with "docs@forum.netzwickern.netz", and a toggle switch labeled "Disabled". (Captioned by AI)

For me it keeps an actor disabled. Deleting is impossible, though. It was Friday when I upgraded everything, so quite fresh but I don’t know (at the moment) what versions I have.

I can’t reproduce this at the moment either. Actors retain their enabled/disabled state on state in my testing. Please update to the latest version of the plugin and also check the logs for anything amiss.

Not currently, but we will be adding support for actor deletion soon.

Updated activitypub plugin to commit 39f1cf4. Now the “flipping” behaviour and inconsistance between the activitypub status banner and the slider button is gone.
