"Local community organizers are looking for alternatives to centralized #eventplatforms like Meetup.com. While some communities have moved to standalone #WordPress solutions with #eventsplugins, they miss out on the network effects and discovery features that make centralized platforms valuable.
Building upon the existing WordPress #ActivityPub #eventbridge, we’ll create a “Community Event Starter Kit” that makes it easy to host events in #theFediverse.

Event Federation

Recap of CloudFest hackathon

When you hear ‘CloudFest’, many people associate it with a business-to-business event, which it is, but the hackathon in the run-up to it still has a certain degree of community character. On the initiative of Andreas Heigl (@heiglandreas@andreas.heigl.org) and the support of Matthias Pfefferle (@pfefferle), this year’s hackathon provided the resources and space for an exchange of ideas around ‘federated events’.

Our group was one of the largest and very diverse. We used the first day primarily to exchange ideas about our goals and the status quo. Afterwards, we reviewed and improved existing features and developed prototypes and concepts for new ones.

For me as a developer of the WordPress plugin Event Bridge For ActivityPub, the best thing about these days was to finally get to know the entire WordPress/Automattic team involved with ActivityPub in person (greetings to @mattwiebe and @obenland).

I would like to emphasise a few achievements in particular, without neglecting the achievements of all:

  • Matthias Heigl took the time to take an intensive look at the FEP-8a8e. His many years of experience with the development of calendar features and iCal provided important suggestions for making the specification even more far-sighted.
  • Laura (working-directory.com/) helped to reduce the barriers new developers face when experimenting with the interaction of Gancio/Mobilizon and WordPress and others.
  • Finally, many thanks to Cloudfest for the great organisation and hosting!

Die 170 Login-Versuche gestern und heute Nacht auf mein #WordPress Konto erfolgten wohl alle auf den Benutzernamen Admin. Da ich den Benutzer Admin gelöscht habe, konnten diese Angriffe nicht erfolgreich sein. Ich rate allen Administratoren von WordPress Seiten, ein anderes Administratorkonto einzurichten und Admin zu entfernen. Ein sicheres #Passwort ist wohl eine Selbstverständlichkeit. #hacking

@wyatt WordPress in particular is not strictly not necessary; other server-side blogging software has analogous features.

- create and edit posts using Markdown formatting, possibly with custom extensions
- preview HTML rendering of a post before it goes live
- upload media to include in posts
- let other writers create posts
- send Pingback or Webmention notifications to sites your posts cite and receive them from sites citing your posts
- present paginated lists of posts in HTML and Atom forms
- filter these lists by date or category tag
- perform full-text searches and present their replies
- let readers create comments on a post or another comment, with preview of the comments
- set privileges on who may comment and what may appear in comments
- show, hide, or delete comments and mentions

Which of these features are dispensable?

Hmm maybe I will give one of the #WordPress static site generator plugins a try again 🤔

If I pull my site to my local machine and then generate a static version, I can put that up on a very cheap server and have basically limitless file space.

There's one plug-in I suspect will not cooperate though. I really like using the Geo Mashup plug-in and it would be sad to lose that.

Also how would commenting be impacted? Believe it or not, I find commenting to be a useful feature even in 2025 😅
