Today I received a notification from WordPress asking me to moderate a submitted comment.
The specific wording that they used was, "a new trackback is waiting for approval.

You can untick those in your Settings > Discussions and save the changes.

You rock! Thank you for the guidance!
I'm glad to hear from you!!

Stephen

Happy New Year :)

To you and yours as well!!!

Stephen

I got the same as you several time. I think it is a scam

Thats what I was thinking but I wanted to check with the great minds at Wealthy Affiliate!
Have a wonderful week!

Stephen

Hi Stephen perhaps this training by Christopher will explain it all.

Trackbacks as well as pingbacks were fine in the old days but now they are mostly abused by spammers hence your comment you received.

Very much appreciated! This is why I love WA!!

Stephen

Thank you for the link as well. Very helpful!!

Stephen

Most welcome Stephen and have a great day 😊

Cheers the link is very helpful

You as well, my friend!!

Stephen

Thanks 🙏

I'm glad you asked this question. I've received several of these notices lately. For the reasons you mentioned, I took them as spam and deleted them.

I'm hoping someone here can clarify this better.

I'm leaning towards spam but like you said, I am hoping for a better explanation than I have found.
Hopefully something from experience.
Thanks for your added interest!

Stephen

Certainly spam just delete it and the training I gave you will help you more

This will help you understand more

Yesterday, I published an article on my blog and today when I click on it I get the Oops...
Any ideas?

I just went in to my dashboard and added categories. Then I updated.
Then I updated the article.
That seems to have worked.
I had already tried to clear cache and refresh to no avail.
It looks to be fixed.

Good to know

I hope that it might help someone else.
Have a prosperous week!

Great work, my friend!

Thanks, Maxine!
I appreciate you for your kind words!

Stephen

No worries!

Maxine ✨️✨️

Woohoo, congrats :) I am glad there's no more oops.

Authoring & Writing Content

I am trying to finish setting up Google Adsense and it says all steps are complete. However, when I try to connect it to Google Site Kit, it gives an alert icon telling me that

Looks like your in great hands with some very good guidance — I have nothing further to as at this point.

-Mike

I appreciate you for reaching out!

Stephen

You’re welcome!

-Mike

Hi, Stephen

That’s for the GDPR disclosure if you’re going to sell in Europe, etc.

You can activate the one inside your AdSense account or use a separate plugin.

I don’t use Site Kit. It’s unnecessary and will slow your site down. You can get all that data and so much more from GA-4 and GSC.

Keep On Rockin’ 🤘
Frank 😎🎸

Thanks Frank!
I'll chuck site kit.
Its in the Adsense account that I keep getting sent through a loop back to the homescreen.


Stephen

Hi, Stephen

I’m not sure what’s happening to you??

I have my AdSense customized by manually placing their code on my site and that seems to work well.

What tunes are you listening to these days? 😎

Frank 🎸

I'll have to try again when I crack open my laptop tomorrow.
It depends on what I'm doing.
If I'm cleaning "Allman Brothers". Cooking, "Jethro Tull or Emerson Lake and P"
Researching "Yes or Rush" " Santana".
Just the short lists for now!!

Stephen

How awesome is that? I learn something here. Appreciate your listening interests.

Learning "Cream", "Steve Miller Band", "Dire Straights", "Steely Dan". I like bluesy bands when im learning.

Stephen

This took me to where I was but it takes me in a loop over and over.

Stephen

Right, I see Frank gave sound advice.

Here is the screenshot of the alert icon.

Don't use Site Kit. However, it is a plugin. Do you see any ads showing on your website?

No ads. I received the alert during set up. Before even trying to connect to site kit.
Thanks Abie!!

Stephen

You can use the Ad Inserter plugin as well

I will! I need to do it tomorrow on my laptop or P.C.
Thank you for always being so helpful!!

While troubleshooting an issue on Google Search Console, I have come across another Wealthy Affiliate members site attached to mine.
My Question(s) are how? And How would I

Site support as usual had the answer and immediately responded. It is merely a referral link and nothing to worry about.
Thank you all and thank you Site Support!!

Stephen

Hi Stephen
Of course. I should have thought of that!
:-)
Richard

All I know is that I hope you get it sorted out, Stephen!

Jeff

Thanks Jeff, me too.

Stephen

I have absolutely no idea what happened, Stephen, but at least I can cheer you on, my friend!

Jeff😎👍

Here is the screenshot.

You can try the screenshot in the comment box. That will be helpful.

Great idea, I will!! Thank you!

Stephen

Thanks again Brenda!!

Stephen

I am glad SiteSupport helped you.

That's peculiar (I think) Stephen.
I think that if you edit this question you can click the image icon in the edit panel and add that screenshot.

Richard

I tried but it may be because I am on my mobile phone. I'm going to try in the comments.
Thank you Richard!!

You'd find it in your drafts.

I'm waiting for my laptop to charge and I'll check.
Thanks Abie!!

Stephen

Unfortunately the only thing that it saved was the cover image. I'll just have to do it over.

Right, it doesn't take long, I edit my posts in Grammarly and keep a copy on the cloud as well.

You always offer such actionable advice, thank you!! I have been curious about Grammarly anyway.
I will look into it ASAP!

You are very much appreciated!

Stephen

Most welcome Stephen!

No, I have not heard about this, Stephen, but I would suggest trying to post that with just the "Success" category done at the bottom of the post. I hope you get some better answers soon, my friend!

Jeff

I did but then it immediately erased.
It was a somewhat long post because it was also about being here for a year now. I'll try again when the disappointment wears off.
Thanks Jeff!!

Stephen

This time you might want to open a word document, and then copy and paste it over to the post, and if the post idsappears again, at least you will still have it saved, my friend!

Jeff

Believe it or not, that is my next module on my Udemy beginners computer course.
Fortuitous!!
I will learn and then apply!!

Stephen

That's good to hear, Stephen! I hope some of these glitches or whatever they are, get resolved very soon!
