✔ == **added to live website at [fediverse.party](https://fediverse.party)**
WordPress is a mature free code project with a huge user base. Getting fediverse integration for comments working smoothly in WordPress would be a coup. There are a number of plug-ins that provide some pieces of the puzzle, but it might require a bit of community facilitation to herd all these cats into working on one plug-in (or suite of plug-ins?) that does a good job of everything.
## WordPress plug-ins:
#### Maintained
* :black_nib: [Fedimebedi](https://github.com/mediaformat/fediembedi) - "display your Mastodon, Pleroma or Pixelfed timeline in widget or shortcode"
* [Wordpress-ActivityPub](https://github.com/pfefferle/wordpress-activitypub)
* [Mastodon Auto Share](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mastodon-share/)
* [Autopost to Mastodon](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autopost-to-mastodon/)
* [ActivityStream extension](https://wordpress.org/plugins/activitystream-extension/)
* [OStatus for Wordpress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ostatus-for-wordpress/)
* [GNU Social Autpost](https://wordpress.org/plugins/gnusocial-autopost/)
* [Mastodon Embed](https://wordpress.org/plugins/embed-mastodon/)
* [WP-GNU Social](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-gnusocial/)
* [GNU Social followers widget](https://wordpress.org/plugins/gnu-social-followers-widget/)

**Update 2024-09-20**
In early 2023, Wordpress parent company [Automattic formally adopted the most popular ActivityPub plug-in for Wordpress](https://wordpress.com/blog/2023/03/17/making-the-social-web-a-better-place-activitypub-for-wordpress-joins-the-automattic-family/), hiring its developer [Matthias Pfefferle](https://wedistribute.org/podcast/wordpress-matthias-pfefferle/) as a fulltime employee.

* ✔ [Pterotype](https://github.com/jdormit/pterotype) / [getpterotype.com](https://getpterotype.com) - allows user on ActivityPub instances to follow WP blogs and reply, with replies appearing as comments on the blog. A fork of this is still used by WeDistribute.
