Pingcrawl

Why does it take so long to post articles now?

Pingcrawl needs to fetch and process a lot of web pages in order to do its job. Get patient.

Why do I get a “Page not found” error when posting?

The script is either running out of memory or executing for too long.

This can be remedied in two ways:

• Reduce the max tags, max pings per tag and/or Google hits options.
• Increase PHP’s max_execution_time and/or memory_limit in your php.ini.

How can I prevent Pingcrawl from running on a given post?

Two ways:

• Disable the plugin until you want to use it again.
• Before publishing the post, create a custom field called ‘pingcrawl_pinged’ and set its value to ‘1’.

How can I re-ping a given post?

Delete the ‘pingcrawl_pinged’ custom field from the post.

Why don’t my pingbacks/trackbacks show up at the sites I’m pinging?

• Blog owners may delete your ping/trackbacks.
• Blog owners may mark your ping/trackbacks as spam.
• If you’ve been spammy with pings in the past, your new pings might be marked as spam by anti-ping-spam plugins.
