Advance Warning for inhabitants of the Republic of Ireland – it looks like we’re going to be visiting Dublin, Kilkenny, and a few other places in early June. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Not quite sure what happened to your comment, David – it seems to have petered out a bit! I’ve checked in the comment admin, and it does appear to just die off – I’d wondered if there were code in there it didn’t like.

Heh, I’ve never been a fan of the “trackbacks are just remote comments, so should be in the same list” school of thought. Does WP allow you to separate the two [MT does the opposite: they're separate by default, but you can use a plugin to combine them with comments]?

Ditto David.

A trackback is a “reference to a similar post” not a “comment on a post”. They are inherently different and I’ve just never understood why some people lump them together – other than that the blogging tool does it automatically.

I agree – I just haven’t had enough trackbacks to notice this one before.

As it happens, it looks like WP does just bundle them all together, which is a bit of a pain in the arse. Once I’ve sorted myself out a bit with themes etc., I may have a look at hacking the code a little to seperate the two items. Which would be my preference, to be honest.

    I really didn’t think I’d reached the age of “Things sure have changed since my day”-type recollections, but the title of Lyle’s recent post reminded me of something that happened to me at school, in about 1986 or ’87 [I…
