FAQ

What’s my Mastodon username?

A Mastodon account is formed like an email account: @name@some.mastodon.instance. You need to enter the whole thing (including your instance) in the plugin’s settings.

Can I use this plugin to verify multiple Mastodon accounts?

Yes, you can. Just enter all usernames separated by a comma.

Where can I report any bugs and/or request additional features?

If you have spotted any bugs, or would like to request additional features from the plugin, please file an issue.

How can I support the developer of this plugin?

Supporting me is 100% optional. The plugin is free and will always be free. However, if you’d like to support me, it would mean the world to me and help me to keep creating useful plugins. If you’d like to contribute, please consider buying me a coffee! ❤️

After trying anything from HTML snippets to adding the code to a random page or via social icon, without success, I tried this plugin and, Behold!, it worked immediately. Make sure to add your website to your Mastodon profile once more after installation, and the verification is immediate 😉

Have just tested this out after my embedded Mastodon links refused to connect. I may take a short while but works perfectly.

Painless and straightforward. My site was verified on Mastodon within a few moments. Thank you.
