right?
How will the link to the article you comment about look like when you dont put the trackback link to it in the body of the message itself but in the special trackback text box under the body of the message? Will it show up under the post? Or in your own comments?
And can you check my blog www.pimpfromhell.com?
I dont understand why i dont see any trackback links in my comment areas. I have trackbacking activated in wordpress. |
Yes, that is the correct trackback. The trackback goes in the special trackback box. You do not put it in the body of the article. The trackback URL is how the blogs "talk" to one another. If you do not put hardlinks in your article to the blog and article you are commenting about no one will no what you are talking about as they read your blog as they have nothing to reference to.
When you trackback you are automatically posting your comment made on your blog on someone elses blog with a link back to your blog. You need to have links to the article and blog that you are commenting about in your comment otherwise people reading your blog will have no clue what the fuck you are talking about.
So, in a nutshell:
1. You read an article on someone elses blog and want to comment on it using trackbacks.
2. You go to your blog and click through to the write section.
3. You write about the story on someone elses blog and give links to the blog and story in the body of the article.
4. You go back to the blog where you found the article you wanted to comment on and get the trackback URL. (rightclick on the word trackback, copy link location).
5. Return to the comment you are writing on your blog and enter the trackback URL in the trackback box. On WordPress this is right below where you type in the text of the comment.
6. Publish the article to your blog.
Now when someone reads your blog they can see what you are talking about because you added hardlinks in the comment on your blog. In a few minutes if not right away go back to the article you commented on on the other blog. In the comments section for that article you will see your comment and a link back to your blog.
Okay, class dismissed it is happy hour time.
