Ability to embed a profile or timeline

[themushmouth]

Is it possible to embed a profile or timeline? I would like to embed my mastodon profile to my site.

No, only individual posts are embeddable right now.

You could do this by parsing the RSS feed, that's what I did to add my toot's to my webpage. Maybe it is useful for you https://gitlab.com/BeS/hugo-sustain-ng/blob/master/static/js/feedreader.js

@schiessle what rss feed did you use?

[schiessle]

@themushmouth afaik, there is only one per user: https://mastodon.social/@bjoern.atom

See #1065 for embedding individual post.

@schiessle Your current website also seems to get various other parts from Mastodon now. Is that still done via the RSS feed? Would it be very difficult to abstract that part out to use in any static website?

[schiessle]

no, I wrote a small PHP app which uses the mastodon API to fetch all the information: https://gitlab.com/BeS/hugo-sustain-ng/tree/master/static/mastodon.comments

After checking several pages/forums I decided to create an embed timeline with only html and js (no jQuery dependency).
Here you have the source code:

It appears the URL format has changed from .atom to .rss:
