Hi,
anyone out there?
I'm here! :)I don't know how many people still are monitoring this mailing list tho, but there other friendly helpful pals in the project's IRC channel at #social@irc.freenode.net that may give you further assistance! ^^
Changing a hostname of the server hosting a Gnusocial instance seems to be a bit problematic. The visible setting under Admin / PATHS / Server does not change the hostname everywhere. The old hostname, possibly non-functional, remains on the URLs of the posts.
Yes, that's true, I think running `scripts/updateurls.php` and `scripts/updateurls.php` after doing such changes might fix most if not all the issues tho. Note that, although for a non-federated-enabled GNU social instance it is entirely fine to do such change, in the context of the free network, doing this kind of change is a bit more complicated - the webfinger aliases must reflect this change for a smooth transition and eventual other nuances required by the OStatus protocol (for ActivityPub this would probably be enough but I still have to check).
Does anyone know how to fix this? Possibly replacing a string in the mysql database directly?
It kinda is that easy for a non-federated-enable instance, but it's a bit more complicated for a federating one. I'll see if we check this up during the summer.
