- The group actor is the

- There is no way to discern without parsing the note content itself who authored the original note.
So at present while I would be able to retrieve the note, without a proper backreference to the group actor, I don't think I can slot it correctly.
Not sure why the received activity is returning a 403, as well.

@julian I saw a NodeBB test on Hubzilla Monster. I'm guessing that was you.
In order for you to properly mention someone, the Hubzilla server needs to know about that actor first. The easiest way to achieve this is to follow (connect to) that actor. This adds the actor to the database. This only needs to be done if no one on the server is following them or being followed by them.
This does create an extra step if the actor is unknown to the server, but it does force spammers to follow unknown actors before they can mention them. -
@julian @Mario Vavti That is one thing that I wish Hubzilla did, and that is identify the author of the original note (top level post in a forum), both internally in the database and in a variable available to themes, and externally via Zot protocol and ActivityPub.

@julian in Hubzilla the group actor will fork the original post with a quote reshare. Hence
attributedTo
is set to the group actor. IIRC the author of the original post is being stored for refernce but we currently do not use this info.

@Scott M. Stolz@mario@hub.somaton.com since Hubzilla posts (incl. yours) are making it in fine I'm assuming this is only for the "forum" feature?

@julian right.
