Trackback UI


Dave Winer: Question for MT experts. I want to send a Trackback message to Mitch's weblog referencing this post. I know how to do it with a script, but how do I do it through MT's user interface?

In MT 2.5, on the HTML page where one enter weblog titles, entries, and excerpts, there is a simple textarea for URLs to Ping, thus:

<textarea class="short310" name="to_ping_urls" rows="3" wrap="virtual"></textarea>

In my case, the user interface is Radio.  During my publishing process, I run a script which parses the entry for hrefs and automatically issues any pingbacks or trackbacks.
