Can someone- slowly and using short words- explain to me how to make something trackback? I don't know if it's something I need to do when I link to a particular article or if it's the originating article's thing to do.
Also, an explanation of the box down below where you create a new entry, labeled "urls to ping" and how to do it, I'd be appreciative.
Yes, I RTFM, but I'm too techno-arrested to fully comprehend. :)
Do you have automatic discovery turned on? (You should have - I think I turned it on when I set you up.)
If so, any link to a post on a trackbackable blog will be trackbackalised automagically.
Posted by Pixy Misa at September 22, 2003 03:43 PMAs for the URLs to ping box, if you copy the URL from the Trackback link under a post into that box, it will ping that blog even though you may not have a link to it in your post.

(let's see Pixy come up with some more new and exciting words - like "trackbackalised" and "automagically")
