The whole Spirit of America Challenge has been and continues to be an awesome personal experience. I’m sorry if it has dominated the blog the past 5 days, but that’s life…
I’ve received so many trackbacks (many of them duplicates) that I’ve had to add Stepan Riha’s Avoiding Duplicate Trackback Pings hack to eliminate duplicate trackbacks. I used to use MT-Blacklist to manually delete duplicated, but honestly I don’t know why I didn’t install this hack sooner.
Note: The instructions are out of date for current versions of Blacklist. The hack has to be made extlib/jayallen/MTBlPing.pm (not Blacklist.pm).
If you’re technically challenged I will do a full MT-Blacklist install (with this hack integrated) in return for a NEW $10 or more donation to Spirit of America via The Victory Alliance. New contributions only please…
Good hack. I’m really confused as to why MT doesn’t do this by default. There’s also a hack on that site to avoid duplicate comments.
2.661 has comment throtling so the duplicate comment hack is not as necessary.
