Looking at the Mastodon and Lemmy documentations, yes it should work.
Page,Article,Note,VideoandEventactivities.Page,Article,Note,Video,Event,Image,AudioandQuestionactivities.As you can see there's a large overlap between the two, so I say it's likely that it will work. I could bring this even further by having a look at the plugin's code but unfortunately I'm alergic to both PHP and SVN and wordpress uses both.
The plugin is maintained on GitHub, but yeah it's still a lot of PHP
Oh thanks for that. Looking at the plugin's wordpress page I ended up on a wordpress SVN page and thought I had to browse that. My allergy is already much better, I might have a look after all.
Based on this it looks like the user can choose article or note: https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-activitypub/blob/163d9e931c407463bf254ce55bd45f400468982c/templates/settings.php#L158
what else could it possibly be coded in while maintaining compatibility with wordpress, a php application, and its modest server requirements?
