Hello I have been receiving messages about trackbacks and when I had a look there was a title of Obese women in relation to the article about the Breeding Cycle of Pademelons-looked like spam but I could not work out how to view it. I deleted it because the title seemed like spam.
How do you set up the blog so that they can be viewed without dire results
Regards

In this case, the spammers sent the trackbacks without a title, so that our control panel was not able to create a link in the normal fashion. I've pointed this case out to our developers so they can handle these types of "title-less" trackbacks appropriately. And by appropriately I mean detect them as spam and drop them instead of passing them into the control panel... Wink

If the developers can do it, that would be a great improvement, John. I remember that a while back, when I had less experience with the spam trackbacks, I was concerned about not locking out anything legitimate, so I looked at a few of them - and was totally grossed out. Embarassed
