No trackbacks from WordPress?

Post by iskru »

Hi,

i seem to be unable to receive a trackback in S9y from WordPress.

Is there anything i need to setup in S9y to make it work?

I put the link to my S9y-post properly into the "Trackbacks" filed or box underneath the Wordpress-Post, and Wordpress say it has already pinged my S9y-post.
But there nothing shows up ...

Hi!

For Wordpress to send trackbacks to your entry you need to copy the "trackback URL" into wordpress' trackback field, a URL like:

http://www.sparprotz.de/comment.php?typ ... try_id=293

instead of

http://www.sparprotz.de/archives/293-Mi ... paren.html

If WP says the URL is already pinged, did you check your serendipity "comment" admin section to see if it maybe is moderated? Or check your spamblocklog if it was denied? Depending on your antispam plugin configuration it might be that WP trackbacks are rejected.

Hi!

Complain at Wordpress, they do not have that sexy trackback-URL autodetection like we have. :-)
