After seeing Andy Bell talk about it on his site, I’ve gone ahead and added the ATMosphere plugin to the site to try and publish the site over the ATProtocol (which integrates with Bluesky) using standard.site.
If this works well, reacting to this post on BlueSky will mean that likes/boosts/comments will feed through to the WordPress posts. In theory. So I’ve just posted a quick post to test.
We’ll see how it works!
Okay this should appear as a comment…
I’m interested to see how well this works…does it mean a post on the site is linked to a post on BlueSky?
Yes. But as you can see, the post http://www.rhyswynne.co.uk/doing-the-st... isn’t being linked to or included in the original message.
I spoke with the developers and that will be fixed in the next version hopefully as it’s a known bug, but so far, works pretty well!
It’s not ideal (I’d like for the excerpt to be the post item sent or we can just get something a bit more controlled), but other than that, it seems to work okay.
I gave been building this out in 11ty and whilst its great there is an extra step that means I need to get the atUri: at://did: for the article and then rebuild the page before publishing – am using Sequoia to achieve this.
May be a bit of confusion as there’s a known bug in the plugin, but this should have also been included http://www.rhyswynne.co.uk/doing-the-st...
