Our pingbacks needed a vacation. They were overworked. Tired. Fed up. Weary of being used and never rewarded for their important role in keeping the lines of communications open.
The pingbacks went walkabout. On strike. Gone away. I understand. If I were a pingback, I’d take vacations too. But you are back now.
Please tell your friends, the reblogs, to come home, too? I need them.

In their never ending quest to change things, WordPress breaks things more often than they fix things.

Yes. That is true. And nothing is going to stop them, not commonsense or their unhappy customers.

As a new blogger, I’m with the other dingbat. Oops wingbat. I’m going to figure this out pretty soon.

You will. It isn’t terribly complicated. What makes it more difficult is the frequency with which the software breaks down. When you’re new, you don’t know if it’s you or the software. You can always ask me. I can’t fix it, but I can sometimes tell you what you are missing or need to do.

Thanks so much. Everyday I fumble faster.

It took me a long time to work it out and as soon as I did, they changed it. It isn’t just you. We are all fumbling.

I can’t reblog either. Most frustrating. Pingbacks or lack thereof are very annoying. Hit and miss affair really

They just keep changing stuff without testing to see what collateral damage will occur. But that’s the way of the world these days. Just do it and let your customers clean up the mess.

Wingback – I did mean pingback.

A pingback is a link to another place … another blog, another website, an article … anything. You probably use them all the time and don’t even realize it.

I noticed that today when I was able to reblog the first Bond article.

I did get a pingback when you linked to my comic. They seem to work fine on my blog (or likely, with my theme), but I always have to approve them from moderation…

Yes, pingbacks are working (mostly), but reblogs are not. Before, the reblogs were working, but the pingbacks were broken. It’s always something.

Yes, the return of the pingbacks. Perhaps “pingback” may become the word of 2016, along with the “Hashtag”. Yes I was using a Hashtag and it disappeared, but pingedback on the next day. Stop tagging your hash Johnny and put a back on your ping, but don’t forget to wash your hands. There are so many possibilities. Viva el Pingback.
