To my understanding it's contradictory to the Mastodon concept to hard-code a server URL.

Given: urlPrefix = "https://fintoot.space/" in
https://git.drupalcode.org/project/social_media_links/-/blob/8.x-2.x/src...

Should be changed to urlPrefix = "https://"

Of course that interfers with existing usage. I'm not a developer, thinking about a solution along the lines of adding an update script to detect whether active modules

  • have an active Mastodon plugin
  • given database entries in the respective tables
  • using an (unpatched!) fintoot prefix

... and append the deprecated prefix to the entries.

I absolutely agree. Where is fintoot.space even coming from?

It would also be really useful if we could find a way to incorporate the rel="me"attribute so that it serves to verify the account.


You can verify yourself as the owner of the links in your profile metadata. For that, the linked website must contain a link back to your Mastodon profile. The link back must have a rel="me"attribute. The text content of the link does not matter. Here is an example: <a rel="me" href="https://mastodon.social/@Account">Mastodon</a>

I wouldn't want to blame anyone ;-)

Thanks for forwarding this issue!

Edit: I see the changed urlPrefix but nothing to preserve legacy data. IMHO we should at least add an update hint. Where would that be placed?
