Getting trackbacks when not checked in admin

Are they unchecked on all your sites?

Honestly I have not checked all of the sites to see if it is. But I have it unchecked on the main site and it gets about 20 trackbacks a day that I am spamming in the admin panel.

Well there’s a massive difference between “all my multisite blogs” and just one site ??

Were those posts made before or after you unchecked the pingbacks box?

Agreed. ?? But I do know a few of them have been getting them. Very good question. Honestly I am not 100% sure. The trackbacks seem to be on the same 2 posts and nothing else.

So the box may have been unchecked after the posts were made.

Right, you gotta go back and turn off pingbacks on the older posts ??

What a simple fix! Thanks for the help. I had to go under screen options and select discussion. Hope that was correct?

Is there a way to have the trackback box unchecked by default for all of the existing and new sites?

Hmm.

Looks like this should work perfectly! Thank you for help as always. It is much appreciated!
