Help With Wordpress Ping

[sirtiner]

I have read about the ping-o-matic and it looks like when you update or add an article you get an temporary link to the homepage and not to the article.

Is there any way to fix it? i mean i have seen it, on "ping service sites" just dont know how, plugin? rather not use a plugin tho.

Appreciate any help here

Ping-o-Matic! --- you can just go to the site and manually enter the info for your blog or post, as well as the services you wish to get a ping. Hope that helps.

Thanks but isnt it possible for this to work automatically within wordpress?

Wordpress already does this out of the box.

Originally, you asked how to do without a plug-in. Visiting the site is the way to go without use of a plug-in. Otherwise, the method in which it pings normally is your only option, I suspect.

Ok? Well the ping thing is built in the wordpress, i just think its strange that it gives me a homepage link and not a link to the actual article page, so you have to have a ping plug-in, otherwise you spam sites with homepage links? Thats just super!

What plug-in works well for this then? any recommendations.
