One WP post didn't get distributed via ActivityPub

[craigconstantine]

My most recent post on https://moversmindset.com hasn't been sent out via ActivityPub. If you look at @craig@moversmindset.com aka https://moversmindset.com/author/craig you'll see the most recent post is from Dec 2022.

But there is a public post from Feb 8…

I notice that ActivityPub can display the post if I directly ask, https://moversmindset.com/preview-still-mind-with-martin-svenselius/activitypub

Extra oddities:

This is the first time I've tried to use "(preview) " at the front of post title. So… parenthesis are one place for suspicion

But also, I just posted a bug report for the display-posts WP plugin, https://wordpress.org/support/topic/behavior-different-anonymous-visitor-versus-me-logged-in/ Because this same post also doesn't get shown to anonymous visitors to the site. So perhaps there's something deeper in WP's queries that is preventing both ActivityPub and DisplayPosts plugins from getting this post in queries. Here's a screenshot of the Display Posts bug I reported over there…

FWIW, I do see the post on the home page of https://moversmindset.com/ - but not in the page https://moversmindset.com/episodes/

Caching, perhaps? Most caching plugins ignore logged in users - if I add a nonsense query string ( https://moversmindset.com/episodes/?junk ) I do see it on that page

Caching is a great point! I'd forgotten about that. That may be all that's wrong with the other WP plugin... nothing's wrong, the page is cached.

But my question here… "Why didn't this newest post go out via ActivityPub to subscribers?" remains…

I do see the post from 2/8 at https://moversmindset.com/author/craig/ - had not checked there before. Perhaps authors page is also being cached?

[craigconstantine]

…okay, I've disable page caching :)

…and I still don't see the newest (feb 8) post when I look at craig@moversmindset.com from a mastodon client.

…and my original callout: Why didn't AP plugin notify/push/publish/whatever the Feb 8 post to my Mastodon account. (I'm following @craig@moversmindset.com from a generic mastodon account to keep an eye on things.)

I can see the post on mastodon, maybe a glitch? have you deleted the post at some time in the process?

I will close this for now, feel free to re-open if still a problem.

…perfect. Yes, it was a problem with caching on my WP instance.
