  How do I disable trackbacks so that readers can’t see them in the comment section of my blog? I still want to be able to know when I have a trackback but I dont’ want to make it public

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

  If you disable trackbacks on any given post then you won’t receive them. If you approve and post trackbacks they are public as they appear along with comments. If you fail to approve them then they remain in the Moderation queue readers cannot see them unless you approve them. Please see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/trackbacks/

  Also note that there is a great deal of trackback and pingback spam so it’s important to learn how to sort the good from the bad. I believe this post mayl help you do that. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/05/06/trackback-and-pinback-spam-what-to-do/
