ActivityPub Polls for WordPress
WordPress plugin for social polls
This project will develop an ActivityPub-based poll plugin for WordPress that integrates with the WordPress ActivityPub plugin. The plugin will feature a modern editor interface using Gutenberg blocks, a public-facing view for displaying polls and results, and robust ActivityPub-based vote handling. While the WordPress ActivityPub plugin originally focused on broadcasting content to the Fediverse, it is increasingly becoming a foundation for interactive features. This project will contribute to this evolution by enhancing internal APIs where necessary to support third-party extensions. The goal is to strengthen WordPress as a sovereign platform for online identity, enabling to host polls natively without having to create additional identities/accounts on other platforms to carry out common Fediverse activities.
