Trackbacks keep closed (or open if you want them to be). This script shouldn't affect the way trackbacks and tbpings work. Problem is (was) whatever the state of the trackbacks, the original script fist sent the notification, then try to add the entry. So, now, with this customized script, every ****** spammer trying to add trackback receive an error (because trackback is closed), so I'm not notified at all. In that way, I'm not spammed anymore, *with mail notification*. Of course, no script would prevent them trying to tbping your blog, but important is the way this script checks if the entry's been added or not. Original script did not, so even if it failed, ****** spammers receives a success return code and may spread the word "Hey guys, this blog is spammable, you can freely add tbpings !!!" :). So I may hope this would reduce tbping. Hope it helps, Cheers, Seb -- Sébastien LELONG sebastien.lelong[at]sirloon.net http://www.sirloon.net "Syntactic sugar is just sugar, but it makes life tasty..." :wq!
