Can't view my Wordpress federated post

ska@community.nodebb.org

Hello,
for a few days now, I haven't been able to view my WordPress posts on my NodeBB (v4.5.1).

WordPress posts are visible on other NodeBB forums (like this one, for example), and from NodeBB, I can see OTHER WordPress sites, but not mine.

In the logs, I found:

What could have happened and how could it be resolved?

Thanks.

ska hmm that sounds like a regression, can you share the link to one of your posts here?

ska@community.nodebb.org

Okay, I did a "Restart & Rebuild" and then searched for the URL with the ID, but I still can't find the federated post:

ska@community.nodebb.org

The only thing that happened, and I'm saying this to try and find the problem, is that I changed the nameservers to try using a CDN for a few days, then put the original nameservers back on September 7th.

Since I put the original nameservers back, there have been these ActivityPub errors (but I hadn't touched any NodeBB settings, the only thing that changed were the nameservers, which have now been back to original for a few days).

It's as if the ActivityPub plugin has "gotten stuck."

ska that is just a coincidence

baris added the additional logging at the same time

Great, I figured it was a coincidence (damn them!) but I wanted to say it so as not to leave out any potential clues!

julian@community.nodebb.org

ska Unfortunately I can't seem to reproduce the issue on my test instances (here and one other). The URL does seem to load fine.

Are you able to SSH into your forum server? Can you run curl -H "Accept: application/activity+json" https://www.lealternative.net/?p=63326 and tell me what shows up?

ska@community.nodebb.org

julian sure.

ska Are you able to restart NodeBB without using the regular buttons from the ACP... just by stopping the service from the command line and restarting?

Then perhaps the locks will clear.

ska@community.nodebb.org

julian sure, done a

./nodebb stop

and

./nodebb start

but searching for https://www.lealternative.net/?p=64428 always gives me "no results".

julian@community.nodebb.org

ska I added some logic changes to better handle the locks... can you update to the latest version on the develop branch, and run NodeBB using ./nodebb dev?

ska ok great news thank you!

ska@community.nodebb.org

julian Just for completeness: some old Wordpress posts still aren't working. It's still better than before because, for example, the more recent ones are now visible, but it still seems worse to me than it was before v4.5.0.

ska which one doesn't work?

Does it work here?

I'm still on the dev branch and almost all of them work, but not all. For example:

https://www.lealternative.net/2020/10/13/giocare-a-tron-online
https://www.lealternative.net/2020/03/25/alternative-ad-android/
https://www.lealternative.net/2023/02/24/native-alpha/

These don't work.

In the logs, only the GET request is visible, but without the response.

Most of those that didn't work before now do, such as: https://www.lealternative.net/2025/09/10/abbiamo-provato-la-vpn-a-pagamento-di-duckduckgo/

Also, all Mastodon posts now seem to work, whereas many had problems before.

julian@community.nodebb.org

Confirming at this time that at least the first URL shared does not get pulled in. Debugging.

julian@community.nodebb.org

ska can you please check that those three posts are actually federated outwards?

The human-readable URLs don't contain the expected Link header to the ActivityPub resource.

e.g.

link: ; rel="friends-base-url"
link: ; rel="https://api.w.org/"
link: ; rel="alternate"; title="JSON"; type="application/json"
link: ; rel=shortlink

It does contain the shortlink, which I tried to pull with the appropriate Accept header, but was sent HTML in response.

Perhaps there is a toggle you can press to enable federation on those posts?
