Trackback

What is it? Is it something new?

At the bottom of my 'reply to post,' it gives the option to Send Trackbacks to (Separate multiple URLs with spaces).

I noticed it for the first time yesterday and wondered about it too. I'm sure it wasn't there before, but I may be wrong. Someone will come along and tell us what it is.

There was an upgrade to our software yesterday and this Trackback box was added at that time. We've asked the techies what it is, but so far we haven't heard back from them.

Well then some of us are going to have to experiment

Trackback (in theory) is supposed to track when someone links to a document, but both documents have to have trackback. On Horsetopia, it could help link one thread to another within horsetopia (show where the other info came from).

I can always tell when HT goes through and upgrade. It takes days for it to get back to normal. ARRRGGGGG

I do not see that button...... It would be cool though.

That's a cool feature EA! Once we get the hang of it, it could be one of the most used features. After all, we have had threads over the years on the same topic. That's not a bad thing, its a good thing. But its not all that easy to go back, in fact, some salient points are often mentioned in other threads that one would not necessarily look for on a topic.

Yup, this is gonna be fun!

Hey! In fact FreedomChrist is trying to do something similar in an OWLS thread, trying to get them all under one roof
