In reply to: [ActivityPub] Webfinger Endpoint unavailable@pfefferle the problem for me is that my web host does not allow me to make any changes or additions to the .well-known folder. I’m not sure if this is just an issue with my web host, or whether it affects others too (eg @puck said he uses Dreamhost). Ref:
“After finally asking the right question to Hostinger (thank you MrWhite!), they confirmed that making changes to the /.well-known folder is not possible on a shared hosting plan. Here is the official response I received:
The .well-known directory is server-default, so that is why overriding and making changes to it is not possible on a shared hosting plan, as important data/information is stored there. To make meaningful changes in this directory, you would need root access, which is only available on our VPS plans.”

In reply to: [ActivityPub] Webfinger Endpoint unavailable@pfefferle ditto for me — no resolution. I replied to Tim: “I tried several specific [htaccess] redirects, but I think my web host (Hostinger) disallows any messing with the well-known folder.”
Is there a solution that doesn’t require using the well-known folder?

In reply to: Main rss feed broken – going to server indexThanks all. @jnashhawkins you nailed it, there was a folder named “feed”. I’ve deleted that and it’s solved the problem.
