Using Movable Type’s TrackBack with Radio Userland

Filed Under Wikis, Weblogs and Outliners | 

Jeremy refers back to my response to his response to the OnLamp article, berating the fact that Radio doesn’t work with Movable Type’s TrackBack feature.

Well, I did a bit of digging and discovered David Watson’s post on how to make this work.

I tried it out, by inserting the following into the previous post:

<% scratchpad.s = tcp.httpClient (server:"jeremy.zawodny.com", path:"/mt/mt-tb.cgi?tb_id=43&url=http://www.tmtm.com/insanity/2002/07/14.html", ctFollowRedirects:"5"); string.httpResultSplit (scratchpad.s) %>

It seems to work, but seems to add multiple ‘pings’ to Jeremy’s trackback page. I’ll turn this into a radio macro once I discover how to work out what the URL of the current post will be, once created…
