  Yesterday a website picked up and published one of my photos — with appropriate attribution and a link to my blog. However, I received no notice of it and a trackback did not appear on my blog (although my settings allow it). Had I not noticed the website listed in my stats as a Referrer, I’d have never known they published my photo. Have trackbacks been disabled? I certainly hope not. I want to know when people publish my stuff.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there! We have not disabled pingbacks. It’s possible that other user has their site set up not to send pingbacks to the sites they link to.

  Hmm, I didn’t think of that. Okay, thanks, shawna.
