SOLVED Cache problem #mastodon experts. I tried every combination of the meta tag for author attribution on my site https://jan.wildeboer.net to no avail. What am I doing wrong? The meta tag reads <meta name="fediverse:creator" content="@jwildeboer">. (the parses of mastodon seems to "eat" the @social.wildeboer.net b ut it is in my page) I have added the domain jan.wildeboer.net under preferences -> verification. Tthe "more from this author" refuses to show up. And yes, my instance is on 4.3.0.

@jwildeboer @jwildeboer The tag doesn’t accept markdown. Is that just your Mastodon client? Or did you actually put Markdown as the value?

@jwildeboer Try adding a slash at the end of your tag, ie.:
<meta name="fediverse:creator" content="@[email protected]" />
Seems like that shouldn't make a difference, but it's the only difference I see between how we've styled out tags, and mine works fine.
And you added your website under Author Attribution? Not just Your Verified Links?

@preya No, my Jekyll source file looks like this (snippet) and my actual page source has the same.

@upstreamism I can add the / now to see if that makes a difference. And yes, I did add jan.wildeboer.net under domains on the verification page, though it shouldn't be needed according to the description on that page.

@jwildeboer I'll also say that it seems to take a little time for posts to generate the attribution, presumably because they're getting the graph info from the site header first, but checking with the linked Mastodon server before they populate the attribution.

@upstreamism Added the / everywhere, trying with a (hopefully) non-cached blog entry now https://jan.wildeboer.net/2009/03/youtube-amazing-sheep-led-art/

@upstreamism And yes, it finally shows up
OK. Considering it done. It's a cache problem. -

@upstreamism Yep. It's a cache problem. If I try with already cached pages, it doesn't show up. Now it does. Solved.

@jwildeboer Do you have a link to documentation about this meta fediverse thingy? That looks interesting!
