Hello ! Some needed here! I'm trying to include a mastodon feed to my website, but I need my "user ID" (wordpress.org/plugins/include-)... Does anybody knows where to get this info on @QOTO
Sorry to ask such a basic question... Can anybody help me, @freemo maybe?

@w101 can you give me a hand with this issue maybe...? Thanks in advance!

If all else fails, you can get your current access token using the method here:

github.com/felx/mastodon-docum

And then use that to populate the token field of a --header "Authorization: Bearer [token]" switch on CURL and issue that command that they recommend on the page you linked. Might work! :) I'm on the train and sadly my phone doesn't have curl.

I'm also sure there must be an easier way!

@leovarnet

Ooh, maybe if you go to your profile in a browser, and see that the URL is, say,

qoto.org/web/accounts/12345678

then your id is 12345678? Not sure.

I'm so helpful! 😂

@QOTO @freemo

@QOTO @freemo Hello @ceoln thanks for your advice! I had the same feeling that this might be the ID... but apparently not: the plugin still returns an endless "loading mastodon feed".

@leovarnet

Well phht! Although that might be for some other reason. Does it do the same thing with a completely random/wrong id?

@QOTO @freemo

@ceoln you were right, it was the ID indeed... But the plugin doesn't work with qoto apparently qoto.org/@freemo/1102368835633

Ok that's what I assumed... thanks @freemo for the clarification! So that means this plugin doesn't work with @QOTO

@leovarnet @QOTO

I use a plugin on my blog that works well. Its designed for static pages so you should be able to intgrate it jeffreyfreeman.me
