I found one under communities so far and if you're curious it's !pfefferle.wordpress.com@pfefferle.wordpress.com It appears to work just like any other community.
However, when I commented, it didn't appear on his Wordpress blog but it did appear under "community post". He had a comment on his blog that didn't appear in the community. It might be an issue of synchronization?
Not sure if it's a typo or a front-end rendering issue. But I see your link wrong. The correct one would be:
!pfefferle.wordpress.com@pfefferle.wordpress.com
For lemm.ee:
https://lemm.ee/c/pfefferle.wordpress.com@pfefferle.wordpress.com
OK, thanks! I must have mangled it when I pasted it.
How did you get lemm.ee to connect to it? I cannot open it on my instance; it just gives me "The server returned this error: couldnt_find_community." When I try to run a search it just brings up these comments. I think the URL format in the community name is breaking Lemmy, but clearly it worked on your instance so I'm confused.
This URL loads but gives me that error: https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/pfefferle.wordpress.com@pfefferle.wordpress.com
This link doesn't work correctly: !pfefferle.wordpress.com@pfefferle.wordpress.com
I didn't do anything special, just typed the correctly fomatted link (as yours).
It doesn't work on bookwormstory.social either (pointed out here). Being it a new feature, bugs are expected.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !pfefferle@lemmy.sdf.org
Good try, bot. Good try.
Huh it works on lemm.ee, lemmy.ca, and even the canonical instance
.ml. But not on bookwormstory.social.I wonder why that would be? But also, I'm not really worried. Maybe 0.19.0 will fix whatever's broken.

Are comments from other platforms supposed to appear beneath blog posts like that? I suppose it depends on how WordPress has implemented their federation. If it is supposed to work, it might also depend on how often WordPress pulls in information from other sources; I wonder what their default federation settings are? Does a blog automatically federate everywhere? Or would they have a more allow-list model to prevent comment sections becoming a moderation nightmare for blog authors?
I suppose I should look this up 😇
EDIT: “and, in turn, receive replies from those platforms that are transformed into blog comments.”
So it might be a matter of how often that blog’s “cron” tasks run (background processing that runs on a timer), and perhaps if the blog author allows comments (from the fediverse and otherwise) and if they have to manually approve them before they display.
I see it too, tried subscribing. I see one post, and no comment from you
