No accounts required for your readers to use the panel — just click and share to the Fediverse network of their choice. Version 2.0 introduces **FediBack** — a feature that replaces dead-end guest comment sections with a live conversation hub powered by the Open Social Web. Replies from Bluesky, Mastodon, and Flipboard Social appear directly below your article in real time, where the discussion is already happening and growing across three networks simultaneously. Your content will be alive in your blog and everywhere else on the open social web. That is the real SEO value: social signs of alive content! #### Features * **Side panel** with one-click sharing to Mastodon, Bluesky, Flipboard, Threads, Lemmy, and Nostr * **Instance-aware sharing** for Mastodon and Lemmy (visitor picks their home instance); Nostr sharing via public relay * **FediBack** — cross-post your article as an anchor thread to Bluesky, Mastodon, and/or Flipboard Social, then display all replies as a live Open Social Web comment hub below the article * **First comment seeding** — automatically post a customizable first comment to start the conversation on each platform * **Social signals** — display likes and shares from all connected platforms in the FediBack section header * **SEO-ready** — FediBack reply content is server-side rendered in the page HTML, fully indexed by search bots without JavaScript * **Live FediFind search bar** (optional): visitors search Mastodon, Bluesky, and Flipboard from your site * **Channel Boost** (requires free FediBoard account) — push articles to topic- specific Fediverse channels: Travel, Food, Lifestyle, Wellness, Culture, Science and more. * **Open Graph tags** — automatically injects OG meta tags (title, description, image, URL) into your article pages for rich previews on social platforms; detects and defers to Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress, and other major SEO plugins automatically; toggle on/off in settings * **Per-post override** — show or hide the panel on individual posts via metabox * **No tracking, no third-party analytics, no Google Fonts on the frontend** — your readers’ privacy is respected by default * **Light and dark mode** — auto-detects your theme’s color scheme #### FediBack Free vs Pro The free tier includes up to 3 active FediBack threads. **FediStation Pro** unlocks unlimited FediBack threads. Manage your Pro licence in the FediStation settings page. #### Why this matters The web is consolidating into a handful of closed platforms. FediStation gives WordPress publishers — still the backbone of the open web at ~40% of all sites — a simple bridge to send their content into the Fediverse, where readers and conversations live on user-owned servers and federated protocols. FediBack goes further: it brings those conversations back to your site, making your articles the center of cross- platform discussion rather than a dead end. #### Requirements * WordPress 6.0+ * PHP 8.0+ * A free [FediBoard](https://fediboard.com) account (optional — only required for Channel Boost) * FediBack requires connecting at least one social account (Bluesky, Mastodon, or Flipboard Social) in settings ### External services This plugin connects to a small number of external services. They are all operated by FediBoard (the plugin’s author) and are only contacted under the conditions described below. No service is contacted on every page view, and no visitor data is sent without an explicit user action. #### FediBoard Channel Boost API (api.fediboard.com) Used for the FediBoard « Channel Boost » feature, which submits an article to FediBoard topic channels for cross-posting to the Fediverse. Contacted only when an administrator: * Clicks the **Boost Now** button in the panel — sends the article URL, title, description, featured image URL, optional caption and hashtags, plus the administrator’s FediBoard licence key. * Opens the FediBoard quota indicator — sends the licence key to read the remaining boost credits. * Opens the FediStation settings page when a FediBoard account is linked — sends the licence key to read the current account status and tier. No data is sent from the frontend or for non-administrator visitors. Terms & Privacy: https://fediboard.com/legal#fedistation #### FediBack Platform APIs When FediBack is enabled on a post, FediStation contacts the following public APIs to fetch reply threads for display below the article. These calls happen server- side and are cached for 5 minutes: * **Bluesky** (public.api.bsky.app) — fetches the reply thread for the anchor post. * **Mastodon** (your connected instance) — fetches reply context for the anchor status. * **Flipboard Social** (flipboard.social) — fetches reply context for the anchor status. When creating a FediBack thread, the administrator’s connected platform credentials( app password or OAuth token) are used to post the anchor post and optional first comment. No visitor credentials are ever stored or sent. #### FediStation Pro Licence (api.fediboard.com) When a FediStation Pro licence key is entered in settings, it is validated against api.fediboard.com. The licence key and associated email are the only data sent. No post content or visitor data is transmitted. Terms & Privacy: https://fediboard.com/legal#fedistation #### FediStation Anonymous Usage Stats (api.fediboard.com) FediStation sends a very small number of **anonymous, aggregate pings** to api.fediboard. com so we can understand which features are useful and prioritise development. Each ping contains only: * A randomly generated install UUID (no PII, no IP, no URL, no post title, no domain name). * The plugin version. * The event name (e.g. `install`, `boost_submitted`, `fedifind_submitted`). These pings are fire-and-forget and never delay a page response. To disable all anonymous stats, add this filter to your theme’s `functions.php` or a site-specific plugin: ``` add_filter( 'fedistation_stats_enabled', '__return_false' ); ``` Terms & Privacy: https://fediboard.com/legal#fedistation #### FediFind Search (fedifind.com) When the FediFind search bar is enabled in settings, the panel includes a search form that sends queries directly to fedifind.com in a new tab — no data is sent server-side by the plugin. The OG-fetch endpoint (`fedifind.com/api/og-fetch`) is called server-side only when an administrator opens the boost form, to fetch the article’s image, title and description for the preview card. The FediFind Discoveries panel remains available but submission of new sites is currently closed. No data is sent for non-administrator visitors. Terms & Privacy: https://fediboard.com/legal#fedifind ### Privacy FediStation is designed to respect your readers’ privacy by default. * **No frontend Google Fonts** — the side panel uses your visitors’ system font stack. * **No tracking pixels, analytics, or third-party scripts** loaded on the frontend. * **Outbound HTTP calls only occur** when an explicit action is taken (share, boost, search, FediBack thread creation). * **Linked FediBoard, FediFind, and FediBack accounts** are stored as WordPress options and removed on plugin uninstall. * **FediBack reply fetching** happens server-side and is cached — no visitor data is sent to platform APIs. #### Anonymous usage analytics To help us understand which features are useful and prioritize development, FediStation sends a small number of **anonymous, aggregate pings** to api.fediboard.com. These pings include: * A random UUIDv4 site identifier (generated once on plugin activation, never tied to your domain, email, or any personal info) * The event type: install, share click, search submit, boost, or FediBack thread creation * For share clicks only: which network (Bluesky, Mastodon, Flipboard, Threads, Lemmy, or Nostr) That is it. **No visitor data, no IP, no page URLs, no search queries, no post titles** are ever sent. Pings are fire-and-forget so they never slow down your site. If you would prefer to disable analytics entirely, you can do so via WordPress filter: ``` add_filter( 'fedistation_stats_enabled', '__return_false' ); ``` ## Captures d’écrans [⌊Admin settings -- Networks selection, FediFind search bar option, panel placement controls⌉⌊Admin settings -- Networks selection, FediFind search bar option, panel placement controls⌉[ Admin settings — Networks selection, FediFind search bar option, panel placement controls [⌊Frontend panel -- share buttons, live search, channel boost (admin only)⌉⌊Frontend panel -- share buttons, live search, channel boost (admin only)⌉[ Frontend panel — share buttons, live search, channel boost (admin only) ## Installation 1. Upload the `fedistation` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install from the WordPress Plugin Directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress. 3. Go to **FediStation** in the admin sidebar to configure networks and (optionally) link your FediBoard, FediFind, and FediBack accounts. 4. Done. The side panel appears on all single posts and pages by default. To enable FediBack: 1. Go to FediStation Settings — FediBack tab. 2. Connect at least one platform (Bluesky, Mastodon, or Flipboard Social). 3. On any post, open the FediStation panel and click **Create FediBack Thread**. 4. Replies from the Open Social Web will appear below your article automatically. ## FAQ ### Does FediStation conflict with my SEO plugin’s Open Graph tags? No. FediStation detects the most common SEO plugins (Yoast SEO, Rank Math, AIOSEO, SEOPress, The SEO Framework, Squirrly) and automatically disables its own OG tag output when one is found. If no OG plugin is detected, FediStation can inject OG tags itself — this is configurable in settings. ### Do my readers need a FediBoard account? No. Anyone can use the share buttons and the FediFind search bar without signing up for anything. FediBack reply buttons open the native platform so readers can reply using their existing social accounts. ### Does this plugin send data to third parties? Yes — see the **External services** section below for a complete list of services contacted, what is sent, and under what conditions. No page-view or visitor data is sent anywhere by default, and no third-party fonts, trackers, or analytics are loaded on the frontend. ### Will it slow down my site? The core panel script and stylesheet are around 90KB uncompressed — roughly 25KB over the wire with gzip, which Hostinger and most hosts enable by default. They load asynchronously so they never block page rendering. The FediBack script and stylesheet (an additional ~38KB uncompressed, ~12KB gzipped) only load on posts where FediBack is active — not on every page. The panel mounts in a Shadow DOM so your theme’s CSS is not affected. FediBack reply content is cached server-side for 5 minutes so platform API calls do not happen on every page view. ### Is FediBack free? FediBack is included in the free tier with up to 3 active threads. FediStation Pro removes the limit. Purchase and manage your Pro licence in the FediStation Settings— FediBack tab. ### Does it work with caching plugins? Yes. The plugin attempts to flush common page caches (WP Rocket, W3TC, LiteSpeed, SiteGround Optimizer, Autoptimize, WP Super Cache) on settings save. ### Does FediBack replace native WordPress comments? Yes — when FediBack is active on a post, native WordPress comments are automatically disabled on that post. The FediBack thread becomes the comment section. ### Can visitors comment directly from my site? Visitors click « Reply on Bluesky », « Reply on Mastodon », or « Reply on Flipboard Social » buttons — these open the native platform where they can reply using their existing account. The reply appears in the FediBack section within 60 seconds. ## Avis Il n’y a aucun avis pour cette extension. ## Contributeurs/contributrices & développeurs/développeuses « FediStation » est un logiciel libre.
