I am trying to convince the site-admin that their blocking of ?author=ID is not in any way meaningful (I have been reading a lot overnight to understand what it is, and your position is clearly the strongest). If I don’t succeed, I think this solution will be the only way out. Anyways, I think others in similar positions will profit from such a solution as well. * So, thank you for providing me with such an option. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[ActivityPub] Blog is not found on Mastodon](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/) * Thread Starter [jeppeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeppeb/) * (@jeppeb) * [9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/#post-18724192) * I am in contact with the admins of the site. It seems that Yoast is blocking ? author=0. The admin says: * > Yoast blocks ?author=0 for security reasons – they block a so-called “Author > Enumeration Attack,” which is a technique where attackers can systematically > discover usernames on a WordPress site by using author endpoints. Yoast SEO > Premium does not have a specific setting in the WordPress admin interface to > disable author enumeration protection (blocking the ?author= parameter). Therefore, > it must be done with code … The question is whether it’s even a good idea, > as it poses a security risk. I don’t know ActivityPub, but it seems that the > ActivityPub plugin already uses the /author/username endpoint instead of the? > author=0 parameter. * What is your comment to it being a security risk to allow ?author=0 ? * Do you know how to make Yoast allow access to ?author=0 * Is it possible to create a setting that makes it possible to change the method in ActivityPub so it access a user-slug? I could try to look into it myself if it does not demand complete re-write. In that case, could you point to where to look and edit? * Thanks for all your help. I hope it might be usable for others as well (as I understand it, Yoast is used by many). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[ActivityPub] Blog is not found on Mastodon](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/) * Thread Starter [jeppeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeppeb/) * (@jeppeb) * [9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/#post-18721941) * These are the plugins I have – I don’t think any of them are security plugins?: * ActivityPub Carbon FieldsEWWW Image OptimizerAktiver (not active)Gravity FormsIndstillingerGTM4WP– A Google Tag Manager (GTM) plugin for WordPressPeytz NyhedsbrevPeytz PicturePeytzmail Gravity Forms IntegrationProxy Cache PurgeRedirectionRedis Object CacheSafe SVGcustom– BlocksSparkPostYoast SEOYoast SEO Premium * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[ActivityPub] Blog is not found on Mastodon](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/) * Thread Starter [jeppeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeppeb/) * (@jeppeb) * [9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/#post-18721924) * Returning to this after some time. Problem: domain.tlr/?author=0 returns error 403, access denied. * I have searched for similar problems – but it doesn’t seem to be normal to get 403 on author-id-page. * I have Yoast installed, but there, author-archives is not disabled. * I think I need to contact the people responsible for the website – but I would like to be able to tell them the probable cause so I can just ask them to solve it. Hope you can help me? * Can the 403 be setup in their .htaccess-file? Or where should they look? * Thank you once again! I am using activitypub on my personal website, and it is such a gamechanger to be in contact with the fediverse this way. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[ActivityPub] Blog is not found on Mastodon](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/) * Thread Starter [jeppeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeppeb/) * (@jeppeb) * [10 months, 3 weeks ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/#post-18661785) * I cannot access the author profiles using ?author=0 – is it possible to make ActivityPub use the slug-based URL (/author/username)? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[ActivityPub] Blog is not found on Mastodon](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/) * Thread Starter [jeppeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeppeb/) * (@jeppeb) * [11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-is-not-found-on-mastodon/#post-18646711) * It works at my end (the link includes the blog user name before the URL – but still it worked for me). * – can you please check again? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Slider Block by Sliderberg - Slider & Carousel Plugin for Block Editor] Contain background image](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contain-background-image/) * Thread Starter [jeppeb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeppeb/) * (@jeppeb) * [1 year ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contain-background-image/#post-18563920) * Hi [@imtiazrayhan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imtiazrayhan/) , * I thought I could check out the code and see if I could do it myself, and I think I managed to do it correctly, so I have made a pull request for you.
