1: How to test trackback?
Posted by Lars Pind on 10/11/03 10:00 PM
Installed new lars-blogger with trackback, and tried posting an entry with a link to http://www.pmbrowser.info/hublog/archives/000526.html, but I can't see the trackback appearing. Did it go out? How can I tell? Shouldn't there be a "Trackbacks (0)" link next to the entry?

What are the steps I should take to play with trackback in a default install of lars-blogger?

Lars,

Hmmm. The trackback package doesn't keep track out outgoing pings. Maybe I should add that feature. I haven't seen it used anywhere else.

There are a bunch of debug level log statements in the package which you could check. One easy way to test is setp two lars-blogger weblogs and send trackbacks between them. That is how I did the testing on it.
