Contributing to ActivityPub for WordPress

👍🎉 First off, thanks for taking the time to contribute! 🎉👍

Developers of all levels can help — whether you can barely recognize a filter (or don’t know what that means) or you’ve already authored your own plugins, there are ways for you to pitch in.

Create Bug Reports

If you find a bug, please file a GitHub issue. If you have write access, add the appropriate labels.

If you’re filing a bug, specific steps to reproduce are helpful. Please include the URL of the page that has the bug, along with what you expected to see and what happened instead.

Write and submit a patch

If you'd like to fix a bug or make an enhancement, you can submit a Pull Request. Before you get started, you'll want to set up your development environment.

Once your development environment is ready, you can get started and create your first Pull Request!

Get started

If you'd like to contribute but don't know where to get started, you can take a look at existing issues:

  • "Good First Issues" are a good entry point to get familiar with ActivityPub plugin's code base.
  • All issues labeled with the "Good For Community" label are fair game. That's a great way to contribute new features and fix small issues within the ActivityPub plugin.

We’re Here To Help
