Answers to questions and problems that come up regularly in the support forum and on GitHub. Most answers are troubleshooting checklists, ordered by how often the cause turns out to be the culprit; a few explain how the plugin is meant to work.
If your question is missing, please open an issue or submit a pull request. For guides on configuring specific setups, see the How-To section.
Several answers point to community snippets: small, optional plugins that adjust or extend the plugin's behavior, for example to auto-approve reactions, show quotes as comments, or inspect the internal Inbox and Outbox while debugging.
- Why is a follow request stuck on "pending"? — The remote side shows "Follow requested" / "Cancel request" forever.
- Why don't comments from the Fediverse show up? — Replies on Mastodon & Co. never appear as WordPress comments, often caused by captcha and antispam plugins.
- Can the plugin crosspost to my existing Mastodon account? — Why this is native federation rather than a crossposter, and what to do if you want to mirror posts instead.
