@mario@hub.somaton.com I have yet to test Hubzilla updates with the payload example you sent. I have not forgotten! The topic is sitting unread in my NodeBB inbox for over a week now

@julian said in NodeBB 4.2.0:
> added an additional setting for a remote-only addendum for local categories

A request I meant to raise several times, that I never seemed to remember to do. Amazing!

@Kichae you can thank @panos@catodon.social for that one! ️

Is "Better integration with Ghost " using the comments plugin for Ghost? Just wondering more about this.

@2TonWaffle ah, nah, it means that prior to this release, posts from Ghost didn't come in properly and were dropped. Now they work:

e.g. https://community.nodebb.org/post/https%3A%2F%2Factivitypub.ghost.org%2F.ghost%2Factivitypub%2Farticle%2Ffa21e00d-d112-4d79-b6c6-932134d57f30

Theres improvement, more in my World now on the tags Im following, but these posts all say by 'Guest'.
When Im looking at the same thing from Lemmy there is more detail?
Are some of the fields not being picked up?

@eeeee are you running v4.2.0?

Wow, wild! It's been incredible seeing how quickly NodeBB has been getting updates. You're hard to keep up with!

@julian Yes the World posts with no details came in before upgrade to v4.2, looks like its fixed

However when I click on a Lemmy group Im following, I still see 'no posts'
How do I follow a groups posts?

Edit: The problem may be on Lemmy side. I have notifications that dont go well from Lemmy to anywhere else. As mentioned before I have found Lemmy frustrating as it is good for searching and finding things, but so far its been unreliable in federating out to other places.
Another annoyance is I followed myself on Lemmy from here but it only says 'cancel follow request' not 'following'. But I never got an option to accept follow request on Lemmy side.

@julian

What is the process to follow a federated account?

@CWSmith You can search for a user either via the search bar or in the /users page. Just paste in their handle (e.g. @julian@community.nodebb.org.) The follow button is then in their profile much like following a local user on NodeBB.

@eeeee if you have successfully followed the Lemmy community, then any new topics they share will be shown in the "Shares" page of their profile.

It's less-than-ideal, so I am refactoring that entire system now so that you will be able to "browse" that community like a regular NodeBB category.

Ability to browse remote categories · Issue #13255 · NodeBB/NodeBB

Description Currently, NodeBB processes the main actor types (Application, Group, Organization, Person, and Service) into "remote users", who can be followed and whose content appear in /world. A non-insignificant part of the open social...

As for the follow issue, try cancelling the follow, waiting perhaps a minute, and then following again, then wait a minute, and then refresh the page
