  Dear Happiness Engineers,
  Hope you having a good week. I just wanted to ask you to look into the pingback situation on my blog. It’s not working since yesterday. I respond to prompts rather regularly so it would be good to see it functioning again.
  Thanks for your help.
  Bests, Sam

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

  Are you referring to pingbacks not appearing on the Staff blog “The Daily Post”? If so please read this https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/daily-post-pingbacks?replies=1 and watch for Staff updates there.

  I can see others’ posts successfully linked to The Daily Post for today’s prompt. But not mine. The pingback option is active. Just FYI. Cheers.

  I just now realised that pingback in not working for me even when I link my blog to other WordPress user blogs and not just the staff blog. I am still awaiting help! Thank you.
