  If I approve a comment from a reader, all subsequent comments from that reader are automatically approved. However when I link my own blog posts from within my admin area I have approve each time. This does not seem particularly logical.

  Hi there,
  This may be helpful http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/pingbacks/
  Note that you can stop self pings http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/pingbacks/#can-i-stop-self-pings or disable pingbacks http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/pingbacks/#disabling-pingbacks

  Thanks for the suggestion.
  I don’t want to stop the pings. I am happy to use them.
  My question is more to do with the approval process. Is there a setting that I can automatically approve my own pingbacks, in the same way that I automatically approve comments.
