ActivityPub Error: ‘Actor not found’ on createwritelogic.wordpress.com

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,
    I need help with the Fediverse (ActivityPub) feature on my site: createwritelogic.wordpress.com
    I have enabled the feature, but it is not working correctly. When I test my site’s official ‘webfinger’ link, it returns a ‘user not found’ error.
    The Specific Problem:
    The test link:
    https://createwritelogic.wordpress.com/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:(email visible only to moderators and staff)
    Returns the error code:
    {‘code’:’activitypub_user_not_found’,’message’:’Actor not found’}
    What I Have Already Tried:
    I have already performed all the standard troubleshooting steps:
    I enabled the feature in Settings → ActivityPub.
    I have Published and Updated several posts to trigger the profile creation.
    I have waited over 24 hours for it to propagate.
    I performed a full reset: I disabled the feature, saved, then re-enabled it and updated a post again.
    Since the webfinger link shows a direct error from my site itself (even after a full reset), this seems to be a server-side bug that I cannot fix myself.
    Could a staff member or moderator please investigate why the ‘blog’ actor is not being created correctly for my site?
    Thank you for your help.

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
