Hi, sorry for the trouble! I can reach that page fine, I suppose you are talking about that page when you are logged in?
Could you share some details about how your site is set up? Do the WordPress files reside in the /blog/ folder or have you configured WordPress with a Home URL like that?
Yes the problem is When I’m logged in.
WordPress is installed in /blog directory

Did you already add someone as a friend or subscribed to someone? I found a bug with the Friends page that happens if there are no posts from friends yet.

Yes, I added me as mastodon user as friend
Ok but probably there are no posts yet (also because of another bug, could you go to that user and deactivate the feed, save and re-activate it and save?). Maybe you could subscribe to some other RSS feed just to get started?
How can I do? I can’t find the option
Oh, you’d just go to wp-admin, then on the left Friends → Add New Friend and enter a URL like
Done, it not works, and if the friend post something it not receiped from The plugin
So, just to confirm, in your Friends → Friends & Requests you see two users, your own on Mastodon and projectdmc.org-news? If you click Edit on the projectdmc.org-news one, in the section “Posts”, does it say “0 posts”?
You can see it here https://ibb.co/nDgrDCt
Thanks for sharing the screenshot, this is helpful! Can you check the Subscriptions section? And also click “Modifica” to view the Edit Friend page.
I think it’s because there are no posts yet (it causes a 404 for /friends/). This is why I suggested to add some other feed that uses RSS because for it you can click the “Explicitly Refresh” (it’s not possible for Mastodon).
If you added then the URL should work. Does it show news entries?
It works. Thhen there is two prpblems
1. The bug that you had find about empty List
2. Another problem that prevent to show posts from mastodon
Great! Thank you for helping me debug this!
re 1, I’ve logged this here: https://github.com/akirk/friends/issues/135
re 2, Mastodon is “push” (see this super old issue https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/34), so you can only get new entries as they arrive.
A workaround that works and I am considering is to temporarily subscribe the RSS feed just for the backfill. You can do this manually by adding https://mastodon.uno/@staipa.rss as another feed with the SimplePie parser.
I’m tracking this approach in https://github.com/akirk/friends/issues/136
