Xubuntu 20.04 What's New Video

Hi Yousuf

So if someone can install the ActivityPub plugin and work out what the
fedidiverse ID is.  I am trying to look on my old website to figure what
it looks like.

so my old website is : http://www.zleap.net and I can subscribe using
zleap at zleap.net	which is my e-mail address. It appears in my contacts
list as zleap at zleap.net (ActivityPub)	

So once I can login to the Mastodon account,  I can
subscribe to the blog.  That way any posts are synced and should be
federated as soon as a post appears on the blog.

I need help with finding the id for activity pub though please.  I
really don't understand the process on Wordpress as the plugin page on
my site doesn't really help much.

Thanks

Paul
