I am trying to get trackbacks to work in my r1039. I installed the patch
from the link below and I see the trackback field when posting, but I
don’t see my comment in the blog which I sent the trackback. The blog
I’m
trying to send trackbacks supports them.
This is the patch (I also updated it)
http://ruby.tower-net.de/index.html/articles/2006/05/02/typo-patch-trackback-support
Is it anybody able to explain me how it works?

Which patch have you used? I’ve done some changes on May 3rd… There is
a patch for r1039 and a patch to this patch which repairs Quickpost.
Is it anybody able to explain me how it works?
Well, enable trackback (settings) and enter the “trackback uri” in the
textfield at article post. It should work.
You can have a look at your logfile. There should be entries with
“Trackbacks:” and “Processing ArticlesController#trackback”.
Yes, I am using the 1039-patch1, although I’m not writing posts using
quick post.
I enabled trackbacks in settings and when posting, I open the “add
trackback” textfield and enter a trackback url for a second post in my
blog, I also add a link to this second post in the “Article” field.
I noticed when I try to edit the post, the Trackback url is not saved,
and
the trackback textfield is empty. However this is not so important, the
problem is that there are no trackbacks in the post which I sent them.
I also noticed that I have a post with a trackback url saved, although
it’s not a real trackback url, and I cannot delete it. When I save the
post and go back to edit it, the url I removed is still there.

Do you talk about “Enable trackbacks by default” or “Send trackbacks to
external sites”?
The textfield for external site urls is optional. This url textfield is
for sites you want to notice about every change on your blog. Check
the box and make the textfield empty if you only want to do it article
based.

Do you really use a trackback url and not the article url (permalink)?

Ok, this is another bug. I wouldn’t bet how many bugs are in this patch.
Maybe I should do a rewrite.
But with correct trackback url it works here.
You can have a look at your logfile. There should be entries with
“Trackbacks:” and “Processing ArticlesController#trackback”.
Please have a look at your logfile for these two strings and post the
lines following them. It’s very difficult to say what’s going wrong
there
without an idea what’s going on.

I’ve read more code and it’s not really a bug. The original patch coder
has forgotten to tell that his patch wasn’t finished ;(
It depends on the settings if it works or not.
I try to finish it in the next days.

I am talking about enable trackbacks by default. The textfield for
external sites contains only urls of sites such as technorati.

Hello Thomaz,
can you try these two additional patches…
http://ruby.tower-net.de/typo/typo_trackbacks_svndiff-1039_patch2.diff
http://ruby.tower-net.de/typo/typo_trackbacks_svndiff-1039_patch3.diff
There is now a warning about each failed ping. But I am not sure if this
is an good idea for the urls in the article body. Should I enable the
warnings only for the urls in trackback textarea? What do you think?
Do you know an url with pingback support (X-Pingback header/pingback
link tag) where I can test that part?
Update May 07 2006:
Here is an additional patch: typotrackbackssvndiff-1039_patch2.diff
Known issues:
Changes:
Note:
Using urls in body with pingback or trackback support and adding a
trackback for the same target results in 2 pings to the same target.
