WordPress Trackback API is Not Working
Filed in: WordPress — November 17th, 2005
WordPress trackback doesn’t work through desktop blogging clients.
Few days after I buying Ecto, I found that the trackback does not work through the blogging client. I thought it was Ecto’s problem, but even when I installed MarsEdit (another blogging client) the same problem persisted.
After checking Ecto’s support forum, the problem seemed to have been caused by a XML-RPC API bug in WordPress 1.5.2. A bug ticket has been submitted to WordPress.
My two cents
It is a minor problem because the trackback still works through the WordPress web interface. Hopefully, the bug would be fixed in the coming WordPress 1.6.
