I upgraded to WordPress 1.5 nightly for 3/2/2005 2/21/2005 and trackbacks are now working. If you’re concerned about your trackbacks not working in the official 1.5 release you may think about upgrading to a nightly. I haven’t seen any issues with the 3/2/2005 2/21/2005 release.

2Oh, my bad. March 2 was the day I downloaded the nightly and not the date of the nightly. Sorry about that. It’s the 2/21/2005 nightly I’m using.

4OK, this is going to sound really stupid, but where in the world are the nightly builds?!
WordPress’s site used to have a link to the page that held them, but now they seem to have removed them.
I swear I will link the location as soon as someone posts it for me. Errr!
Thanks…

9How exactly are trackbacks broken? I successfully tracked back (and received trackbacks from) other Wordpress 1.5 blogs. Link?

10They seem to work with other WP blogs, but I don’t see them working with other blogs like MT.
I have tested the latest build with a WP site I use for testing plugins and themes and the trackbacks work great. However, I attempted to trackback to a couple of other sites and don’t see those on their sites. Both are using MT.

11Thanks. Looks like outgoing trackbacks only work between WP-sites. Incoming trackbacks seem to work. *updating*
