Linking to a comment sends a pingback
Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2017 9:33 pm
Here's what I did to produce this … I'm actually not sure if this is a bug. Anyway:
1. Published an entry
2. Edited said entry without changing the timestamp to link from the entry content to a comment for the same entry (“As someone mentioned in the comments …”)
This sends a Pingback (why not a trackback is my first question, I don't actively use Pingbacks) to the same entry, i.e. the entry is pingbacking itself. That can't be intended, right? (Yeah, I know I can disable sending Track-/Pingbacks to myself altogether, but I actually like that. Just not within the same entry.)
