Nope, that’s just how WordPress works; however you can use ScriptyGoddess’s hack to seperate them.
I need to learn more about the programming side…
Does anyone besides me see having them all mixed as confusing to the non-technical reader, especially when they try to scan comments?
I think if you regularly get a lot of pb/tb stuff, then it’s probably worthwhile doing, but for certainly in my case, there isn’t the load there to justify the work.
On certain blogs powered by EE / MT, all I seem to see is ‘Trackbacks (0)’ which also seems just to clutter up the main area.
Each to their own 🙂
How is that more clutter than comments & Trackbacks (0)? Plus having a trackback link allows you to lead other bloggers to your trackback url.
I want to show trackbacks in its own popup like comments-popup.
I have hardly any traffic on my site, but I did set up a label to clearly differentiate the types of feedback.
Here’s the URL to the ONE article that has a pingback:

crowspeak,
How does that show trackbacks in a seperate page?
Macmanx,
I have been to all those links numerous times now. This issue has never been resolved. I have placed a feature request.
I use Separation Anxiety to display my pingbacks and trackbacks in my sidebar, distinct from comments.
In theory, pingbacks and trackbacks are supposed to be thought of “remote comments”. In this context, there’s some value to displaying them inline with “regular” comments.
It’s your blog, though, so you should control the layout as you feel is appopriate.
This was enough coding information to allow me to do whatever I want with the trackback and pingbacks!
