Enables WebFinger (RFC 7033) support for WordPress.

About WebFinger:

\n
WebFinger is used to discover information about people or other entities on the Internet that are identified by a URI using standard Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) methods over a secure transport. A WebFinger resource returns a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) object describing the entity that is queried. The JSON object is referred to as the JSON Resource Descriptor (JRD).
\n

(quote from the RFC)

\n","installation":"

Follow the normal instructions for installing WordPress plugins.

Automatic Plugin Installation

To add a WordPress Plugin using the built-in plugin installer:

Go to Plugins > Add New.
Type “webfinger” into the Search Plugins box.
Find the WordPress Plugin you wish to install.\n
1. Click Details for more information about the Plugin and instructions you may wish to print or save to help setup the Plugin.
2. Click Install Now to install the WordPress Plugin.
\n
The resulting installation screen will list the installation as successful or note any problems during the install.
If successful, click Activate Plugin to activate it, or Return to Plugin Installer for further actions.

Manual Plugin Installation

There are a few cases when manually installing a WordPress Plugin is appropriate.

If you wish to control the placement and the process of installing a WordPress Plugin.
If your server does not permit automatic installation of a WordPress Plugin.
If you want to try the latest development version.

Installation of a WordPress Plugin manually requires FTP familiarity and the awareness that you may put your site at risk if you install a WordPress Plugin incompatible with the current version or from an unreliable source.

Backup your site completely before proceeding.

To install a WordPress Plugin manually:

Download your WordPress Plugin to your desktop.\n
- Download from the WordPress directory
- Download from GitHub
\n
If downloaded as a zip archive, extract the Plugin folder to your desktop.
With your FTP program, upload the Plugin folder to the wp-content/plugins folder in your WordPress directory online.
Go to Plugins screen and find the newly uploaded Plugin in the list.
Click Activate to activate it.

\n","faq":"\n

\nHow to extend the JRD file\n\n

You can add your own links or properties like that:

function oexchange_target_link( $array ) {\n  $array[\"links\"][] = array( 'rel' => 'http://oexchange.org/spec/0.8/rel/resident-target',\n    'href' => 'http://example.com',\n    'type' => 'application/xrd+xml' );\n  return $array;\n}\nadd_filter( 'webfinger_data', 'oexchange_target_link' );\n

\nAdd alternate file/output formats\n\n

You can add your own links or properties like that:

function render_xrd($webfinger) {\n  // set custom header();\n\n  // JRD to XRD code\n\n  exit;\n}\nadd_action( 'webfinger_render', 'render_xrd', 5 );\n

You can find a detailed example here https://github.com/pfefferle/wordpress-webfinger-legacy

This plugin provides a host-meta – file for WordPress (RFC: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6415).

From the RFC:

\n
Web-based protocols often require the discovery of host policy or metadata, where host is not a single resource but the entity controlling the collection of resources identified by URIs with a common host as defined. While these protocols have a wide range of metadata needs, they often define metadata that is concise, has simple syntax requirements, and can benefit from storing its metadata in a common location used by other related protocols.
\n
Because there is no URI or a resource available to describe a host, many of the methods used for associating per-resource metadata (such as HTTP headers) are not available. This often leads to the overloading of the root HTTP resource (e.g. ‘http://example.com/’) with host metadata that is not specific to the root resource (e.g. a home page or web application), and which often has nothing to do it.
\n
This memo registers the “well-known” URI suffix ‘host-meta’ in the Well-Known URI Registry established by, and specifies a simple, general-purpose metadata document for hosts, to be used by multiple Web-based protocols.
