Not receiving Trackback/Pingback on your wordpress?
Recently I needed to close commenting on one of my blog posts and only allow trackbacks.
I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why I'm not getting trackback/pingback notifications. I have tested this with another Wordpress blog that I own - I did a test post and linked back to the other post in the other blog, check the other blog and no comments!
Errrr! I wasn't sure if one blog wasn't sending the pingback, or is it the other blog not receiving the pingback. Finally, I came across this post and found out that my Captcha Form plugin was trapping the pingbacks all along!
Man, I love that plugin… my spam comments have greatly reduced since I installed it. I guess I'll have to revert to the math comment spam protection plugin instead.
