@AdamStuartSmith have you created the parts folder with html templates with the same name, you used in your themes templates?

@pfefferle I seem to have stumbled at the first hurdle.
"After adding this code, you'll see a Template Parts option in your WordPress admin under Appearance."
But I don't. I added the new function to a couple of blogs with no apparent change to the Appearance menu. There is a Patterns option but that was already there. Is that the same thing as Template Parts?

Hello I noticed that under my defcon account I can sometimes see no posts at all from other users of other servers and fewer from some other users, even if they are not blocked or muted. But from a Mastodon account I can see their posts. I can imagine that many users of other servers don't see my posts either, which would explain why the reactions (likes and boosts) to my posts are quite sparse. Is this a known problem and can it be fixed?

I've got little left with #ehLabs after implementing replies and quote posts. Meta #Threads needs to catch up in their #ActivityPub implementation. My hope with ehLabs is to provide a decent quality feed algorithm and content addressability through IPFS. Images provided for testing purposes.

Yes.
If no one on, say, mastodon.social is following you then none of your posts will show up in the global timeline there or in searches or in hashtags.
Also if you have few followers your posts will receive few boosts so hardly anyone will follow you.
So we end up with a handful of wildly popular accounts dominating the conversations which mostly happen on the big instances. Centralised power. Bad.
The threadiverse solves this. People don't follow other people, they join communities and it's their membership that determines where the federation traffic goes. So nearly every instance has all the conversation and everyone is on an equal footing.

@EveHasWords@toot.cat Thanks, that's actually what I was suspecting! 😀 And thanks for the tagpush.app suggestion too, I hadn't thought of that.

@contrapunctus If you're on a server that gets followed by people across a wide swath of the fediverse, your posts will go out to all the servers that have someone who follows someone on your server.
Provided you're not blocked by the admin on their side.
That means the best "reach" is on the biggest servers.
There are ways to get around that, though. Using tags that are followed by a tagpush.app account will get your posts boosted to servers that otherwise might not see it.
Probably the best way to improve your visibility without moving servers (assuming your server is a factor) is to get followers from a lot of different servers.
