The | min filter is Jinja2 syntax, not available in Nunjucks. This caused
"filter not found: min" crashes when posts had photos (never triggered
before the async iteration fix because photo arrays were always empty).
Post-detail view now re-fetches from the origin server when the stored
timeline item has empty photo/video/audio arrays (from before the async
iteration fix). On successful extraction, updates MongoDB so future
views don't need to re-fetch.
MongoDB collections may not be available yet when init() runs if the
database connection hasn't completed. Wrap all createIndex calls in
try-catch so the plugin doesn't crash on startup. Indexes already exist
from previous runs; this is non-fatal.
Fedify 2.0's getAttachments() and getTags() return async iterables, but the
code used synchronous for...of which silently yielded zero results. Changed
to for await...of so media URLs (photo/video/audio) and hashtags are now
properly extracted from incoming posts.
Also replaced the gallery's target=_blank links with an Alpine.js lightbox
modal for full-size image viewing with prev/next navigation and keyboard
support.
dropIndex() was called with await inside the non-async init() method,
causing "Unexpected reserved word" and preventing Indiekit from starting.
Use promise .catch() instead since the result isn't needed.
Moderation page rewritten as single Alpine.js component with inline DOM
updates instead of location.reload(). Added hide/warn filter mode toggle
— warn mode shows muted items behind content warning instead of hiding.
Expanded keyword matching to check content, titles, and summaries.
Fixed MongoDB E11000 duplicate key error by dropping non-sparse indexes
on startup and recreating with sparse:true. Storage layer no longer
stores null url/keyword fields.
The replies tab was empty because it queried ap_activities for outbound
Create activities with a non-null targetUrl, but targetUrl was always null
(remote actor resolution often fails). Now queries posts collection for
post-type "reply" which reliably has in-reply-to URLs.
Also fixes activity log to store in-reply-to URL as targetUrl instead of
the resolved actor URL.
- Notification view: tab navigation (Replies, Likes, Boosts, Follows, All)
with count badges; defaults to Replies tab; type filter in storage layer
with compound index for efficient queries
- My Profile admin page: profile header with avatar/stats/bio, tabbed
activity view (Posts, Replies, Likes, Boosts) pulling from posts,
ap_activities, and ap_interactions collections
- Reader: default tab changed from All to Notes
- Timeline cards: timestamps now link to post detail view
- Notification cards: Reply and View Thread buttons on reply/mention types
Override upstream .mention { display: grid } that broke Mastodon's
hashtag/mention HTML in profile bios. Fixes both admin reader
(.ap-profile__bio) and public profile (.ap-pub__bio) views.
Remote servers (Mastodon, Bonfire) dereference Note IDs to verify
Create activities. Quick reply Notes had no public route — servers
got 302 to login and rejected the activity.
- Store quick reply Note data in ap_notes collection
- Add public GET /quick-replies/:id serving JSON-LD
- Use shared resolveAuthor() in compose.js for quick replies
Remote server timeouts during Announce.getObject() produced 20-line
stack traces. Now logs a single warning line with the cause code.
No behavior change — unreachable boosts were already skipped.
When lookupObject fails (Authorized Fetch, network issues) and the post
isn't in ap_timeline, likes returned 404 "Could not resolve post author".
Adds shared resolveAuthor() with 3 strategies:
1. lookupObject on post URL → getAttributedTo
2. Timeline + notifications DB lookup
3. Extract author from URL pattern (/users/NAME/, /@NAME/)
Refactors like, unlike, boost controllers to use the shared helper.
Quick replies only sent to followers, never directly to the
replied-to author's server. The author was also missing from
the Note's cc field, so Mastodon couldn't thread or notify.
Now resolves the author before constructing the Note, includes
them in ccs, sends directly to their inbox, and logs failures
instead of silently swallowing them.
Boost (Announce) was missing to/cc addressing so Mastodon silently
discarded it. Both boost and like used urn:uuid: IDs which are not
dereferenceable. Changed to HTTPS URLs and added Public/followers
addressing on Announce.
Fedify 2.0 renamed the Note/Article constructor parameter from
inReplyTo to replyTarget. The old name was silently ignored,
causing replies to appear as standalone posts on the fediverse.
Mastodon silently discards activities with urn:uuid: IDs since they
can't be dereferenced. Use an HTTPS URL under our domain instead.
Also add to/cc (Public + followers) on the Create wrapper activity,
not just the Note object — Mastodon requires addressing on both.
Remote servers (Mastodon, etc.) require explicit audience addressing
to display a post. Without to/cc, the Note was silently discarded.
- to: as:Public (visible to everyone)
- cc: followers collection
- Upgrade @fedify/fedify, @fedify/redis to ^2.0.0
- Add @fedify/debugger ^2.0.0 for live federation traffic dashboard
- Move all vocab type imports to @fedify/fedify/vocab (13 files)
- Move crypto imports (exportJwk, importJwk, generateCryptoKeyPair) to @fedify/fedify/sig
- Replace removed importSpki() with local Web Crypto API helper
- Add KvStore.list() async generator required by Fedify 2.0
- Add setOutboxPermanentFailureHandler for delivery failure logging
- Add debugDashboard/debugPassword config options
- Skip manual LogTape configure when debugger auto-configures it
- Fix Express-Fedify bridge to reconstruct body from req.body when
Express body parser has already consumed the stream (fixes debug
dashboard login TypeError)
- Add response.bodyUsed safety check in sendFedifyResponse
- Remove @fedify/express dependency (custom bridge handles sub-path mounting)
Replace the browser redirect on /activitypub/users/:handle with a
standalone HTML profile page showing avatar, bio, profile fields,
stats (posts/following/followers/joined), follow-me prompt with
copy button, pinned posts, and recent posts. Supports light/dark
mode via prefers-color-scheme. ActivityPub clients still get JSON-LD
from Fedify before this route is reached.
broadcastActorUpdate() now fetches followers from MongoDB, deduplicates
by shared inbox, and delivers in batches of 25 with 5s delays to prevent
thundering herd (hundreds of 499s from simultaneous re-fetches).
Browser GET on /users/:handle now redirects to homepage instead of 404.
ctx.getActor() only exists on RequestContext (inside HTTP handlers), not
on the base Context returned by createContext(). Extracted actor-building
logic into shared buildPersonActor() helper used by both the dispatcher
and broadcastActorUpdate(). Profile link attachments now propagate to
remote instances via Update(Person) activity.
Adds a search box at the top of the reader page where users can paste
any fediverse URL or @user@domain handle. Uses Fedify's lookupObject()
which natively resolves URLs, handles, and acct: URIs, then redirects
to the internal post detail or remote profile view.
document.njk already renders title as h1 via the heading macro.
All 14 AP templates were also calling heading() with level 1 inside
their content block, producing two h1 elements per page. Removed
the redundant calls and moved dynamic count prefixes into the title
variable in followers/following controllers.
- Fix cursor pagination: use string comparison (not Date objects) for
published field queries in both timeline and notifications
- Fix "Older" cursor to use oldest item's date, not newest
- Remove redundant parent breadcrumb from all AP page headings
- Reorder tabs: Notes first, All last
- Fix avatar loading: non-destructive hide/show with lazy loading
- Add actor avatars with type badge overlay to notification cards
- Add Fediverse navigation group in sidebar
Reader now resolves ActivityPub links internally instead of navigating
to external instances. Actor links open the profile view, post links
open a new post detail view with thread context (parent chain + replies).
External links in post content get rich preview cards (title, description,
image, favicon) fetched via unfurl.js at ingest time with fire-and-forget
async processing and concurrency limiting.
New files: post-detail controller, og-unfurl module, lookup-cache,
link preview template/CSS, client-side link interception JS.
Includes SSRF protection for OG fetching and GoToSocial URL support.
- Fix Unknown authors by adding multi-strategy fallback chain in
extractObjectData (getAttributedTo → actorFallback → attributionIds)
- Fix empty boosts from Lemmy/PieFed by checking content before storing
- Fix @mention/hashtag styling to stay inline instead of breaking layout
- Fix compose reply to show sanitized HTML blockquote instead of raw text
- Add default-checked syndication targets for AP and Bluesky
- Use authenticated document loader for all lookupObject calls
(fixes 401 errors on servers requiring Authorized Fetch)
- Fix like handler 404 by using canonical AP uid for interactions
instead of display URLs; add data-item-uid to card template
- Fix profile bio showing Nunjucks macro source code by renaming
summary→bio to avoid collision with Indiekit's summary macro
- Fix Fedify API misuse in timeline-store.js: use instanceof Article
(not string comparison), replyTargetId (not inReplyTo), getTags()
and getAttachments() async methods (not sync property access)
- Fix inbox-listeners.js: use replyTargetId instead of non-existent
getInReplyTo(), use instanceof Article for Update handler
- Add error logging to interaction catch blocks
express.urlencoded({ extended: true }) uses qs which strips [] from
field names, so link_name[] arrives as request.body.link_name — not
request.body["link_name[]"]. The old lookup always got undefined,
producing an empty attachments array that overwrote existing links.
The attributionIds fallback was matching "users" from /users/NatalieDavis
instead of the actual username. Now handles /@name, /users/name, and
/ap/users/id patterns correctly.
- Add actorFallback option to extractObjectData() so the activity's
actor is used when object.getAttributedTo() fails (Authorized Fetch,
unreachable servers). Falls back to attributionIds for URL-based info.
- Pass create.getActor() as actorFallback in Create inbox listener.
- Skip storing boosts with no content (Lemmy/PieFed activity IDs).
- Add template guard to hide empty cards already in the database.
- Style @mention and hashtag links distinctly from prose content.
- Handle Mastodon's invisible/ellipsis URL span classes.
Replace all nonexistent CSS variable references with Indiekit's actual
custom properties. This enables automatic dark mode support (variables
swap via prefers-color-scheme) and visual consistency with the rest of
the admin UI.
Key changes:
- Map --color-text → --color-on-background, --color-text-muted →
--color-on-offset, --border-radius → --border-radius-small, etc.
- Add post-type differentiation via colored left borders: purple for
notes, green for articles, yellow for boosts, primary for replies
- Replace hardcoded hex colors (#e11d48, #16a34a) with Indiekit's
palette variables (--color-red45, --color-green50, etc.)
- Use Indiekit's border-width tokens for consistent border sizing
- Add background/color to form inputs for dark mode compatibility
Nunjucks resolves template names across all registered plugin view
directories. Both @rmdes/indiekit-endpoint-microsub and this plugin
had views/layouts/reader.njk, causing the microsub layout to be
loaded instead — which meant Alpine.js, reader CSS, and all timeline
content were missing from the rendered page.
- Return multiple navigation items (ActivityPub, Reader, Notifications, Moderation)
so all AP sub-pages are accessible from the sidebar
- Fix Alpine.js not loading: `{% block head %}` was silently discarded because
the parent template chain has no such block — moved script/css into content block
- Pin Alpine.js to exact version 3.14.9 to prevent CDN resolution issues
- Add fallback avatar (first letter) when author photo is missing
- Guard empty author URLs to prevent broken links
- Fix Temporal.Instant TypeError: use String() instead of new Date() for
Fedify published timestamps in inbox-listeners and timeline-store
- Link author names to remote profile view instead of raw AP URLs
- Bump to 1.1.3
- Add broadcastActorUpdate() method that sends Update(Person) to all
followers so remote servers re-fetch the actor object
- Profile, featured pin/unpin, and featured tags add/remove controllers
now trigger the broadcast after changes
- Wrap URL attachment values in <a rel="me"> HTML for Mastodon rel=me
verification; plain text values pass through unchanged
- Bump version to 1.1.1
Add a dedicated fediverse reader view with:
- Timeline view showing posts from followed accounts with threading,
content warnings, boosts, and media display
- Compose form with dual-path posting (quick AP reply + Micropub blog post)
- Native AP interactions (like, boost, reply, follow/unfollow)
- Notifications view for likes, boosts, follows, mentions, replies
- Moderation tools (mute/block actors, keyword filters)
- Remote actor profile pages with follow state
- Automatic timeline cleanup with configurable retention
- CSRF protection, XSS prevention, input validation throughout
Removes Microsub bridge dependency — AP content now lives in its own
MongoDB collections (ap_timeline, ap_notifications, ap_interactions,
ap_muted, ap_blocked).
Bumps version to 1.1.0.
- Actor type radio buttons (Person/Service/Organization) in Profile page,
stored in ap_profile and read by federation-setup actor dispatcher
- Profile links (attachments) section with add/remove for rel="me"
verification links, rendered as PropertyValue on the ActivityPub actor
- New locale strings for all new UI elements
Express 5 removed the "back" magic keyword from response.redirect().
It was treated as a literal URL, causing 404s at /admin/featured/back
and /admin/tags/back. Now redirects to the correct parent pages.
Inbox handlers used await activity.getObject() which HTTP-fetches remote
objects. This fails when remote servers have Authorized Fetch enabled or
are unavailable, causing Fedify to retry ~10 times per activity.
Replaced with .objectId/.actorId accessors (zero network requests) for
Like, Announce, Undo, and Delete handlers. Wrapped remaining getObject()
and getActor() calls in try-catch with fallback to ID accessors.
Also adds Pinned Posts and Featured Tags cards to the admin dashboard.
Implement all missing Fedify features for full ActivityPub compliance:
- Liked, Featured, Featured Tags collection dispatchers with admin UIs
- Object dispatcher for Note/Article dereferencing at AP URIs
- Instance actor (Application type) for domain-level federation
- Handle aliases (.mapAlias) for profile URL and /@handle resolution
- Configurable actor type (Person/Service/Organization/Group)
- Dynamic NodeInfo version from @indiekit/indiekit package.json
- Context data propagation (handle + publication URL)
- ParallelMessageQueue wrapping RedisMessageQueue (5 workers)
- Collection sync (FEP-8fcf) and ordering keys on sendActivity
- Permanent failure handler stub (deferred to Fedify 2.0)
- Profile attachments (PropertyValue) and alsoKnownAs support
- Strip invalid "type":"as:Endpoints" from actor JSON (Fedify #576)
- Fix .mapAlias() return type ({identifier} not bare string)
- Remove .authorize() predicate (causes 401 loops without auth doc loader)
- Narrow content negotiation router to /nodeinfo/ only
22/22 compliance tests pass (Grade A+). Version 1.0.26.
- Persist Ed25519 key pair to ap_keys collection via exportJwk/importJwk
instead of regenerating on every request (fixes OIP verification failures)
- Use assertionMethods (plural array) per Fedify spec
- Add @fedify/redis + ioredis for persistent message queue that survives
process restarts (falls back to InProcessMessageQueue when no Redis)
- Add Reject inbox listener to mark rejected Follow requests
- Add performance indexes on ap_followers, ap_following, ap_activities
- Wire storeRawActivities flag through to activity logging
- Bump version to 1.0.21
Replies syndicated via ActivityPub were only sent to followers.
Remote servers (e.g. Mastodon) never received the Create(Note) activity,
so replies didn't appear under the original post.
Changes:
- Resolve the reply-to post author via ctx.lookupObject() + getAttributedTo()
- Include the original author in CC addressing (ccs) on the Note
- Add a Mention tag for the original author
- Deliver the activity to the author's inbox via a second sendActivity() call
- Log reply delivery with targetUrl for debugging
Also includes: following list badge fix from refollow work, version bump to 1.0.20
Three issues fixed:
1. Progress bar invisible: used --color-accent (doesn't exist in
Indiekit theme). Changed to --color-primary.
2. Pause/resume buttons non-functional: the /admin/refollow/status
GET endpoint was intercepted by Fedify middleware (content
negotiation routes) returning 404 before Express saw it. Added
/admin path skip to content negotiation middleware. Also made
buttons toggle dynamically via Alpine.js x-show instead of
server-rendered {% if %}.
3. Status badge static: replaced Nunjucks badge macro with Alpine.js
x-text bound to a computed statusLabel property.
