Pinging Comments

  • I have just setup wordpress for my first blog. I see that a ping is sent when a new post is created. Is there any pinging done when a comment is posted? If so, please explain what is pinged?

    Is there any pinging done when a comment is posted?

    No.

    Is there a way to have a ping sent when a comment is posted?

    Not without a custom plugin. The pings sent when you post a new item tell the various update services that you’ve posted a new item. To alert these services every time a new comment was made would likely overwhelm the services.

    Yes my idea was not that good. Once my blog will get more traffic and comments it might be rejected from the ping services. Thanks Skippy.
