Deseja desativar trackbacks e pings em suas postagens existentes no WordPress?
Os trackbacks e pingbacks notificam você de que outro blog criou um link para o seu conteúdo e vice-versa. No entanto, os spammers costumam abusar desse recurso enviando trackbacks e pings de sites de spam.
Neste artigo, mostraremos como desativar trackbacks e pingbacks em suas postagens existentes no WordPress.
Por que desativar Trackbacks e Pings no WordPress?
Nos primórdios dos blogs, os trackbacks e pingbacks permitiam que os blogs notificassem uns aos outros sobre links.
Vamos imaginar que você escreva um artigo e coloque um link para uma publicação no blog de um amigo. Seu blog enviará automaticamente um ping para o blog dessa pessoa.
Esse pingback aparecerá na fila de moderação de comentários do blog deles com um link para o seu site. No entanto, os spammers também podem usar esse recurso para enviar trackbacks e pings falsos, o que pode prejudicar seu SEO.
Mesmo que você esteja usando o Akismet, alguns desses trackbacks ainda podem entrar na fila de moderação do WordPress.
Você pode desativar o recurso de trackbacks e pingbacks acessando Configurações ” Discussão no painel do WordPress. Em seguida, basta desmarcar a caixa ao lado de “Permitir notificações de links de outros blogs (pingbacks e trackbacks) em novas postagens”.
Lembre-se de que essa configuração só desativa os trackbacks e pingbacks de todos os novos artigos que você publicar. Todas as suas postagens antigas ainda terão trackbacks e pingbacks ativados.
Com isso em mente, vamos ver como você pode desativar facilmente trackbacks e pingbacks em publicações existentes no WordPress.
Desativar Trackbacks e Pings para publicações do WordPress
A maneira mais fácil de desativar trackbacks e pings em todo o seu site WordPress é usar o recurso de edição em massa.
Primeiro, você precisará alterar as configurações de paginação para que todas as suas postagens apareçam na mesma tela. Para fazer isso, vá para Posts ” All Posts e clique no botão Screen Options (Opções de tela ) no canto superior direito da tela.
Por padrão, o WordPress mostra 20 posts por página.
Para alterar isso, basta digitar um novo número na caixa “Número de itens por página”. Como você deseja atualizar todos os seus blogs do WordPress, recomendamos digitar um número alto, como 999.
Depois disso, clique no botão “Apply” (Aplicar) para recarregar a lista de postagens.
Agora, você pode selecionar todas as postagens marcando a caixa ao lado de “Title” (Título).
Depois disso, abra o menu suspenso que mostra “Bulk Actions” (Ações em massa) por padrão e selecione “Edit” (Editar).
Em seguida, basta clicar em “Aplicar”.
O WordPress agora mostrará as configurações de edição em massa para todos esses posts.
Basta abrir o menu suspenso “Pings” e selecionar “Do not allow” (Não permitir).
Por fim, basta clicar no botão “Atualizar” para salvar suas alterações e desativar os pings e trackbacks no WordPress.
Se você tiver mais de 999 posts em seu blog do WordPress, precisará visitar a próxima página e repetir o processo.

Hello,
maybe i do not understand fully so please sorry this question:
1) disabling pingback and trackback from wordpress do not preserve me from someone to write them back: is it so? If yes, if someone write something that cite me i will never see (not saying that this is a problem, i’m just trying to understand).
2) Comment in approval usually are not shown in pages(is this true?): how does the comments approval queue affect SEO of a website?
WPBeginner Support says
Someone would still be able to write about and link to your site with trackbacks and pings disabled on the site you can normally use analytics tools to check for sites that are linking to your site without needing to use trackbacks and pingbacks.
Comments waiting for comment approval would not affect your site’s SEO and would not show up on the page until you approve the comment.

This did not work. It is still showing on my existing blog posts at the bottom.
I have it updated in settings and “PINGS” are turned off on all posts as well
WPBeginner Support says
Turning them off would disable them from being added, you would need to remove previous pings for what it sounds like you’re waning.

Thank you so much for this article. I have been stressed by these pingbacks for quite a while. I had turned off them from new articles but they kept coming. Now I know it was because of the old posts. I have followed your essay steps and now I hope they will be gone forever.
Thanks.

I’m not sure you indicated it, but if a trackback is found in a post (or page) using your Edit method (which will now be changed to be disallowed), will it alter the date currently shown for the post (or page)? I would not want the original post date to now suddenly indicate the date I ran this Edit as this would mess up the time order of the posts.
WPBeginner Support says
Changing the trackback through the method in the article shouldn’t affect the published date for the post.

Hi! Is there a way to allow pingbacks but not to show them in the comments? Or does that defeat the purpose of allowing them in the first place. Sorry if that’s a silly question, new to all of this. Thanks!
WPBeginner Support says
To do that you would need to delete the pingbacks in your comments at which point we feel it would be better to prevent them altogether.

Stephanie says
I did the steps correctly but when I go back to make sure everything is saved. The “ping” section does not stay on do not allow. It goes back to how it used to be. Why?

I have a lot of articles and mention that i disable “Attempt to notify any blogs linked to from the article” and now i want this ping to my article. I turned on this option but mine nothing has changed with old posts.

WPBeginner Support says
You would need to use the second method in the article to enable pings on the older posts

Babak Fakhamzadeh says
I’ve got a few thousand posts. If I set my pagesize to over 30 or so, WordPress returns a ‘page not found’ after submitting the bulk edit and waiting for a while.
I really don’t want to do this 100 times with a page size of 20.
So, is there a plugin or other method that can help me do this?
WPBeginner Support says
Sadly not one we would recommend at the moment, you may want to reach out to your host to increase your maximum execution time or try: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-increase-the-maximum-file-upload-size-in-wordpress/

I have applied this tutorial as well as https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-disable-self-pingbacks-in-wordpress/ but still ping back comments are visible on my blog. May you please help out to get rid from them?
WPBeginner Support says
Those pingbacks are probably older and approved. You will have to find and delete them by visiting the comments page in WordPress admin area.

Great article, but disabling pings on pages in bulk edit does not seem to work, there is no “ping” option. Is that true, or am I missing something? So now I need to turn off pings on every individual existing page? Just started getting a bunch of ping spam.
john says
Thanks for the explanation. Mine were already disabled as it was configured by someone else / or switched off as a default. This article explains why they are switched off. What is also useful is to know how to do a bulk edit, i’ve not used this feature before as luckily my set up was done correctly in the first place and is a modern wordpress website with up-to-date security and secure plugins and a secure server configuration that also helps. But you can never be too sure and it is worth taking this measure of disabling pingbacks etc…You should however keep your sitemaps up to date and submit them to include new articles. This is the modern method for updating search engines. Other bloggers find out about the external links to their sites and visa versa using tools such as the google webmaster tools.

All your article I read so far seems for self hosted site. Please help me find some useful articles for my wordpress blog site.
Brian says
Hi Priya,
WordPress is a free tool to help create websites or blogs. It comes in a couple of different flavors. There is WordPress self hosted and WordPress.com, which is hosted. They are both still WordPress.
Here is an article that explains the difference:

If you want help with WordPress.com (hosted) specifically, here is a great starting point:
Hope this helps!
