Creating a Trackback as a Reference (5 posts)

    I belong to a Yahoo group. When I post a blog on topic to the group we're required to leave a permalink and trackback.

    Where/How do I create a trackback link to post in the group so it can be used by anyone referencing my particular post.

    Thanks,

    Don

    That works very well thank you. Now, three questions:

    1. Is there someplace within my site admin I can locate this trackback?

    2. Or....do I have to manually create the trackback?

    3. When someone uses the trackback link does it get posted at the base of that page on my site?

    1 &2 Most themes provide a link for each posts trackback.

    3. If someone uses a trackback link in a post of their own, it *should* be added as a comment, or if you are using a hybrid comment form, separately listed. I say should as occasionally trackbacks can be blocked as spam.

    Here is Podz test site - you can check the pingbacks and trackbacks in both directions!
