I wrote a detailed guide on configuring ActivityPub, Friends, and several other plugins to turn your self-hosted WordPress website into a node on the fediverse.

The ideal technical implementation is that when a client requests the post with an accept header of application/ld+json; profile="https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams", Wordpress sends the ActivityPub version of the post instead of HTML. It should have the same content as the items in the outbox. There may be limitations in the Wordpress plugin API that prevent this.

Another implementation allowed by the standard would be to have a different URL for the ActivityPub ID and put the post's URL in the object's URL property, or insert it in the content. Perhaps version 2 of the plugin will handle this better.
