Help With Trackback URL’S

  • i need to find my trackback url’s and do not know how to do this. i understand it should be at the bottom of the post before the comments box, but i cannot find it. i have tried logging out of admin ncase it as just me that could not see it, but it is still not there. i also loked in the settings of my dashboard, but the only thing relating to trackbacks i can find is under discussion and it says … Allow link notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.), which is checked. my blog is at https://www.onthenetdollars.com and any advice would be much appreciated.

    Look at the code in the default theme’s single.php.

    You can <a href="#respond">leave a response</a>, or <a href="<?php trackback_url(); ?>" rel="trackback">trackback</a> from your own site.

    That outputs the trackback link onto the single post pages. Does your theme have anything similar?

    thanks, just added the code where i wanted it and it is working. i am in the process of creating a theme so am glad i found it, but have wasted time looking for an answer. there should maybe be a manual on what tags must be included when creating a theme because someone with no experience would have had a much harder time fixing it.

    There is almost nothing that you must include. You keep open the Template_Tags page and select whatever you want to display in your theme.

    Yeah, there’s a difference between creating a theme for your site vs. creating a theme for public consumption. You don’t have to include anything you don’t want for your own site. For a public theme, you generally try to include all the standard stuff.
