Implement WebFinger?

Try creating a folder called '.well-known' in the root directory of your blog folder, then place a file called 'webfinger' containing your JSON inside. Does that work?

This works because underneath all the layers, Blot is just a static file server.

thank you! my site folder is inside iCloud on Mac, — ”.” system prefix will mess things up on Apple side, I'm afraid. I guess it's a faux pas .. (

I know MacOS's Finder will complain, but it shouldn't mess anything up! I use a Mac and have plenty of dotfiles and directories

I'm more concerned with iCloud, I had to routinely clean up some cloud folders with a terminal in the past because of the forgotten .git files — the iCloud was giving me the frozen syncs

I'm trying to implement this, but I am stuck by the Finder. How do you get past this dialog and continue to name a folder with a ”.”?

Hi. I did not use Finder. I used the terminal. I navigated to my Dropbox folder which has the root of my blog in it. I created a .well-known folder in the terminal and then copied over the webfinger file to it in the terminal.

other option is to do it with “vscode” or other code editor that allows to work with system files / folders. I personally shy away from vim and make too many mistakes with shell to use the terminal

Aha! Changing the folder name in VS Code did the trick. Thanks!

Just to let you know, I totally third-partied this conversation, and have got Webfinger working on my site thanks to you, so: thanks!
