That’s not my problem. Incoming (I think) works fine because I get those occasionally.
Outgoing trackbacks never work. I fill the little trackback box in, and no trackback ever appears on the target site. I have to use a manual trackback form on Haloscan.

Does the comment moderation field work for partial i.p. addresses? I have a kid on dialup hassling me – will moderation work if I just list the 1st two octets?

I’m a little stressed.

Thanks, but that’s not a solution for me – I’m not using the linkroll, and trying to import my blogrolling list gave me errors when I tried it a couple of months ago. I’m using the blogrolling javascript instead.

I would think the Blosxom people would be responsible for that.

I tested Rboren’s fix against the testblog mentioned here:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/3/8828
Outbound trackbacks are still not working. The wp-amin interface lists “Already pinged: _______” but the trackback never appears on the target test blog.
I would test MattRead’s suggestion, but I’m not smart enough to figure out what he’s suggesting. ??

I picked up the nightly build; no affecton Trackbacks.
Incoming trackbacks aren’t being shown reliably; on a recent post on my blog, a livejournal and a blogger.com user tried to ping me to no affect, but another WordPress user was able to ping me. I couldn’t ping myself though.
Outgoing pings seem to work maybe 1 in 10 tries. Sometimes I get a “Already Pinged” on the edit screen but the trackback was never received. Pinging them manually works.
I’m not complaining – just trying to fill in some case histories to try to track the bug down and to verify that even in the 7-7-04 nightly it still isn’t working.

After a bit more thought, I like the way it looks, but clicking on “Trackback” should give you a page that says “The trackback for this entry is ……………….”. Something you can cut-n-paste right off the screen.
Clicking on trackback now just gives you the post with comments and that’s sure to be confusing.

That can’t be the root cause. I have comments unmoderated, yet I can’t send trackback pings. “Allow link notifications” is on.

It was an initial install for me; I had no idea trackbacks weren’t working at the time.
They’ve never worked for me; I’m using Haloscan to ping them manually.

I like #1. Why not use Alex King’s Style switcher and keep both?
The next person should say they like #2.

That last post was me. :/

I don’t follow.
Replace what ‘name’? Where is this code supposed to go? From my novice php eyes, I can’t figure out what this blurb is supposed to do or when it’s supposed to be run.

Me3 – trackbacks do not work for me. It’s a brand new 1.2 installation.
Any suggestions on how I could fix it? Right now I’m using a manual trackback form at Haloscan but it’s such a pain.

Nope, not for me. I have to ping manually.
