fopen disabled – anyway to make pingback works

  • I understand that pingback will not work if the server fopen is disabled. My host said that they have to disable it for security reason. after they have disabled, I can not longer receive pingback (a note in a comment saying that someone is linking my post at their site)

    Are there anyways of making this pingback works without changing host.

    ** They told me that Curl can be used.

    Please advise. Thanks

    Well… Do you have this code in your theme’s header.php file?

    <link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />

    You won’t be able to receive pingbacks without that, because other sites won’t know how to send them to you.

    When you make a post, do you have the “Allow Pings” box checked?

    Hi Otto,
    Yes, the code is in header.php and by viewing page source the code will becomes <link rel=”pingback” href=”https://blogdemo.anthonet.com/xmlrpc.php&#8221; />

    All posts have the “Allow Pings” ticked

    I have setup a demo blog to test this pingback. You can visit here to take a look.

    Please advise. Thanks.
