Daily post not Linking Back
-
Daily post is not displaying linkback to my post which is linked to the day’s daily post. This has been going on for nearly five days now. What’s up?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

What is or are the URL or URLs of your posts?
Each and every time you create a a properly formed link in your blog to another site the software sends a pingback.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/pingbacks/ It’s unlikely that the issue is that the pingbacks are not being generated. It’s probably just an issue of them displaying on the Staff blog.If your pingback is not displaying then that’s too bad because getting traffic from the Staff blog and other such memes is the easy way to “blog”. For some bloggers it’s the only form of blogging they do and the major source of traffic they have to their sites.

Hi @cancerisnotpink – thanks for the report here. We’re currently taking a look at why this might not be working. I’ll let you know as soon as I figure out additional details. Could you let me know if your next post pingback is successful?

There are two:
The Daily Post: From the friendly editors at WordPress.com
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/
and
Hot Off the Press: The latest news on WordPress.com and the WordPress community.

Take a look at my post: https://cancerisnotpink.wordpress.com/2014/11/20/bringing-romance-back/
my link to the Daily Post brings me directly to the Daily Post for that day’s prompt: http://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_prompt/still-or-sparkling/
You can try my link yourself to prove what I am saying is true. By the way, I am not the only blogger having this problem. Others are so frustrated they are ready to ditch participation in the Daily Post Prompts. Why not if the links/pingbacks aren’t sticking?

Here are the other posts with links to those Daily Prompts that did not work. I have not changed my way of linking. I have not changed browsers, anti-virus systems or settings either. I have broken and saved the posts and then edited and regenerated the links – nothing works…
All of my links to the Daily Post Prompts bring the visitor to the Daily Post Prompt page BUT my pingback is NOT LISTED!!

BUT my pingback is NOT LISTED!
We understand that and ask for your patience while waiting for Staff.

Not to worry, I understand that. :) As Staff work in chronological order it’s best now for you to stop posting so we don’t keep moving the timestamps further ahead.

Finally, I found someone having the same issue.
I am facing this same issue from past three days. I am not looking for traffic on my site. All I want is to be part of the blogging community; and unfortunately, this glitch is cutting me off from rest of the bloggers :(These are my two posts that are not showing on the daily post challenge, even though they have the ping back to the original post.

Please help :(

It has not worked for me all week. I’ve tried EVERYTHING, and know it’s not operator error.

Just an update…. the problem still exists. Some of my friends are experiencing other weird problems beyond what I have described. Is anyone listening? Please, help.

When you go to the posts in question you can see and click links to others who blogged on the same meme and whose pingbacks are displayed on the meme post itself.
In the interim, while waiting for Staff help with this technical glitch, I suggest that you click those pingback links and submit meaningful comments on the related posts. That will get you some mutual meme traffic flowing back to your own meme post.
