Thanks for the great explanation Bill.

see you have had the answers hope you have it all worked out now

Yes, I do understand now. Thanks!

Delete them. They are not needed and you can actually shut the notifications off in your settings on your site.

Thanks, I was worried for them showing up.

Pingbacks (also known as trackbacks) are a form of automated comment for a page or post, created when another WordPress blog links to that page or post.

When you publish a new blog post, WordPress attempts to ‘ping‘ all the sites that were linked to in your post. i.e. Your WordPress website is informing other websites that you’ve linked to them.

When you receive pingpacks, then it means someone else has linked to one of your posts or pages.

Thanks on explanation, makes my life easier.

So, is this good or bad for your website, Bill67?

It is a good thing

Thank you, Bill

Did those links help you understand? Do you need further help understanding?
