Solved Federated Vivaldi Blog shows old profile pic in Mastodon?

mikolsic

I'm wondering if anyone on the Vivaldi team is aware of an issue where our federated Vivaldi Blogs do not display updated Vivaldi profile pics within Mastodon (I'm using Vivaldi Social)

See the following screenshot to see what I mean:

I am the owner of both accounts shown in the far left column. The first (@[email protected]) is my Vivaldi Social account, and the second (@[email protected]) is my Vivaldi Blog.

I'd really, really like for the blog account to show my current Vivaldi profile pic (the one seen on my Vivaldi Social account) but I can't find anywhere I can update that. When I go to my blog, I see my current profile pic (not the Slytherin badge). When I go to my Vivaldi profile, I also see my current profile pic. Help with this issue would be greatly appreciated

P.S. Sorry if this should have been posted in the Vivaldi Social category instead. I wasn't sure which category would be more appropriate for this issue.

@mikolsic This is actually a bug that I'm still looking into. I'm not yet sure why the new profile image is not being fetched by Mastodon. I'll certainly let you know once I figure out what's going on though.

Good news: this is now fixed!

@mikolsic I do not know, but logout of Community and Mastodon and re-login could refresh the image, and try to hit Ctrl F5..

@DoctorG thank you for the suggestion—but, no, that did not resolve the issue

@mikolsic wait a little bit, i gonna try.

I changed the image at https://login.vivaldi.net/profile/samlsso , logged out, went to Vivaldi Mastodon logged out, logged in at https://login.vivaldi.net/profile/samlsso and logged in at https://social.vivaldi.net/
The Mastodon and Vivaldi community shows my new image,

@DoctorG sorry, I think maybe I wasn't clear in my OP. My Mastodon (Vivaldi Social) and Community profile pic show my current Vivaldi profile pic. That's not the problem.

The problem is that my Vivaldi Blog author pic (which shows as my current Vivaldi profile pic when I'm on the blog site, https://mikolsic.vivaldi.net/) shows an old Vivaldi profile pic within Mastodon.

Let me try another way of explaining:

My Vivaldi Social profile pic and my Vivaldi Blog profile pic should match when viewed in Mastodon, but they do not. My Vivaldi Social (@[email protected]) profile pic is correct, but my Vivaldi Blog (@[email protected]) profile pic (viewed in Mastodon) shows an outdated thumbnail. Again, you should be able to see what I'm talking about by referring to the image I posted in the OP.

I hope that makes sense...

//EDIT: My wrong post.

DoctorG

Ah, you mean this account:
@[email protected]
This is yours?

I thought an account was made as
@[email protected]

mikolsic

@DoctorG both are mine, yes.

The Vivaldi Social account is "@[email protected]"

The federated username for the Vivaldi Blog is "@[email protected]"

So my Vivaldi Social account is @[email protected]. No problems with that profile pic on Mastodon.

My Vivaldi Blog account, in the fediverse, is @[email protected]. That's where I'm seeing the problem with the profile pic.

@mikolsic Sorry, i do not know how you can edit the second profile on Mastodon.
Please ask @jane.n how you can edit the picture.
