My Wordpress Ping List

Posted on 29. Dec, 2009 by Brian Wong in Blogging

One of the benefits of having a Wordpress blog is that it can automatically notify blog directories every time your blog is updated.

To customize the settings of which blog directories get notified whenever you publish a new post, go to your Wordpress Dashboard and click on “Settings”.

Then click on “Writing” and scroll towards the bottom where it says “Update Services”.

Wordpress-Update-Services

In the text field provided, you can enter all the various links to directories that you wish to notify whenever you update your blog.

Here’s the current list of services I update. You can copy and paste this list into your settings if you wish.

Thanks for putting this up… I do exactly the same as you.. Frustrating that it broke my feeds, but thanks for the fix!

Hello Redking, thanks for visiting. I hope you managed to fix your feed. I only realized the error after 2 weeks of not-receiving my own updates via email. So I guess it goes without saying – its a definite must to subscribe to your own RSS feed.

Man, this is annoying. I got bit by this little bug as well. Is there any workaround yet to still use the FeedSmith plugin?

None that I am aware of. I just stopped using the Feedsmith plugin altogether and link directly to FeedBurner using the fix above.

I tried your procedure but still failed. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

SAWJ, your blog is hosted on a subdomain so that could be the problem. Try looking at your directory structure with your FTP software to find where the RSS feeds are located and link to it directly.

It should be something like: http://ali-jafri.com/blog/feed but I don’t know how you structured your directory so I can’t tell you for sure.
