Well that worked, posted to WordPress RSS Chat in WordPress and it flowed through to my rss.chat set up.
Can't test here 'cause I use a different email address here from my WordPress site Admin.
I was hoping for something like this!
I seem to have rss.chat running on my Raspberry Pi. Not very stable at the moment. Needed a bit of help from chatGPT joining the dns, apache virtual hosts & ports up. I got as far as locally, then locally network by myself. I had to ask questions to get the rest in order.
It seems quite a good way to do things, using a free account. I run out of questions and then take a break. This allows me to do some thinking myself, I might learn something.
I've also tested the API running bash scripts from TextMate. Posting, editing & delete have worked.
Thank you Dave, it was a missing comma 😳
I’ve now got rsschat running on my raspberry pi, with my email in the whitelist and with some help from chatGPT, sorted out a subdomain. It all works, although I think I need to sort out some of the config urls are still local ones. Also https. For tomorrow once my free chatGPT account gives me some more messages. Anyway I am having fun.
I've managed to get rss chat running on my Raspberry pi. Email via sendgrid working.
I could not get the whitelist to work, pasted the example into the config, changed the example emails, but then the server will not start?
Not a real problem as it only is accessible on the local network so far.
I've now foutered my way through sendgrid and for 100 days on the free plan I've got a way to sign into my localhost copy of rss chat.
I am going to try my Raspberry Pi next, probably at the weekend.

Thank you Dave, not sure how the markdown thing happened, luckily I can edit the post ;-)
Hello, I just arrived here. As I posted to demo.rss.chat I managed to get this running on my mac, without much bother.
rss chat is now simper to set up so I gave it a wee go on local host. So far I've just run it from my downloads folder. The instructions worked but I am a node-no-nothing so I tripped a couple of times.
First I didn't npm install so nothing worked.
I tried to set up SMTP using SendGrid, but I lost the will to live half way through. Got an API key but
> Message failed: 550 The from address does not match a verified Sender Identity. Mail cannot be sent until this error is resolved. Visit https://sendgrid.com/docs/for-developers/sending-email/sender-identity/ to see the Sender Identity requirements
So I just copied the magicString from the terminal and constructed my own url:
`http://localhost:1420/userconfirms?emailConfirmCode=ysugstk4yc\`
Which did the trick.
Of course a localhost-one-person social network is not much use ;-) but interesting none the less.
Once I have braced myself and figured out SMTP I'll try this on my raspberry pi next.
