    Hi Everyone -

    In WordPress, whenever you link to a site within the body of your blog entry, a trackback automatically gets sent to them when you click the Publish button.

    It is my understanding that EE does not do this out of the box.  Is there an extension that will scan through your blog posts and automatically send trackbacks to the sites you link to?

    Thanks!

    Doug

    None that I know of.
    I’m about to release an extension that adds Pingback capability to EE, though. No idea if that’s helpful…

    OK, I suppose Pingbacks are what I’m talking about.  In that case, yes your new extension may be exactly what I’m wishing for.

    Once you release it can you post a link here?

    Thanks!
