trackbacks not work :((

[frust]

I have two s9y-blogs.. I create a new entry in blog 1. I copy the URL of this entry in my new entry in blog2. But I see no trackback in blog 1 ...
and if I click on this link in blog2 I recieve
" 1 Danger Will Robinson, trackback failed. "
????

the same problem with all urls like:
http://blog1.foo.com/index.php?/archive ... 08/25.html
http://blog1.foo.com/comment.php?type=t ... entry_id=5

whats my problem??

You can only trackback to individual entries! So if you use a link like:

Code: Select all

<a href="http://blog1.foo.com/index.php?/archives/1-myentry.html">My entry</a>

that would work. The URLs you tried is a monthly archive view plus a manual trackback link. The manual trackback link is only needed to use in Applications that do not support automatic Trackbacking. As serendipity supports it, you don't need to use that link.

thanks!

But IMO not very userfriendly for blog newbies..

A better Link description ist
"The link is only for...."
