Social Icons for Mastodon

Deployed here on Wordpress plugins library.

This plugin allows replacing the top-100 (by user) Mastodon domains (as of plugin publication) with the Mastodon logo SVG via this mechanism:

the text label you provide will be hidden, and an icon will be shown in its place.

1. Current Limitations

1. Currently only works with twenty-twenty-one theme and later
2. Non-top-100 domains were queried at plugin publishing time (2023-02-18) from instances.social: 'https://instances.social/api/1.0/instances/list?count=0&include_closed=true&include_down=false&sort_by=users&sort_order=desc

I (or anyone else) can work to address these limitations if there is interest.

2. Example

See here for more details of the example (although note that this describes a slightly separate process, which was patching the theme itself; this plugin achieves the same effect, except with 100 domains, rather than 10).

2.1 Set up Theme: Twenty Twenty-One

2.2 Create a Secondary Menu

2.3 Add custom links

2.4 Before

The mastodon.com logo is (erroneously, as it is not a true mastodon domain) is replaced by the svg, but a mastodon.social link is not.

2.5 After

2.5.1 Activate Plugin

notice that mastodon.com (not a true mastodon domain) is not replaced, but that a mastodon.social link is replaced.

3. Support
