I had a working diaspora pod on heroku from past 3 months every thing is working fine accept the auto follow on join functionality. I had set my own account to follow and its working but new users on my pod are not getting my old post. Anyone know what I am doing wrong..??
On diaspora*, when a user shares with another user, that user will only be able to see any limited posts from this point onwards, not any previously posted posts. The reason for this is simple. Since a limited post in history was never shared with the new connection, it is not visible.
It is not possible to edit the visibility of old posts. If you want to write posts that new connections also see, they should be made as public posts.
