ActivityPub Handle Format Issue with Google Login #2070

Description

When a user logs in via Google using Site Kit by Google, the automatically generated ActivityPub handle is formatted incorrectly.

Normally, a Fediverse handle should follow the format:

@[email protected]

However, because the username is created using the full email address from the Google login, the resulting handle becomes improperly structured.

This issue affects the user's ability to be followed or interacted with on the Fediverse. The incorrect handle, which includes the @gmail.com part, is not a valid address.


Steps to Reproduce

  1. Use Site Kit by Google to log in with a Google account (e.g., [email protected]).
  2. Install and activate the ActivityPub plugin.
  3. Observe the generated ActivityPub handle.

Environment


Note: To make the report as effective as possible, please include the version numbers for your WordPress, Site Kit, and ActivityPub plugins. This will help the developers identify and resolve the problem more quickly.
