So an interesting change is coming to Mastodon embeds.

Previously, the embed code consisted of an iframe, going forward, this is being switched to a blockquote.

In either case, the original text of the post is not included and is rather added after the main page the embed is on is loaded.

@cybeardjm@masto.ai Oh that's interesting, I am able to replicate this as well.

I added a note to https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/31766#issuecomment-2351041692.

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online @cybeardjm@masto.ai it should still work with the old-style iframe code but with the post URL substituted in (on the Wordpress side)

@andypiper @cybeardjm Right, but this is an issue with the UI, the embed code is missing, see the screenshot I added to the GitHub issue.
