As was requested, I have made a “recent trackbacks” plugin. This one works just about exactly like the Recent Commented Entries plugin, but instead displays your most recent trackbacks.
Unzip and follow the installation instructions. Usage instructions are also included in the ZIP file. If you cannot download the file by clicking on it, right click to save.
Disclamation Proclamation: I can’t guarantee this won’t harm your install. This plugin is unsupported by pMachine, and any questions regarding this plugin should be directed to me.

Thanks Yoshi!
wait till you see EE SimpleComment. ;)
Request for next version of Recent Trackbacks: display the link to where the trackback came from.
Hmm I thought I included that. Lemme look at that.
maybe you did. i’m tired and stupid right now. i’ll check again.
It could be that the only trackback i’ve got so far is from my own blog, so that’s why it’s showing a link back to my site. Can you trackback one of my entries and see what happens?
Ok, I got it. The date is the link back to where the trackback came from. Would it be difficult to list the name of the site instead of the date? Here’s the way I’d like to display it all:
<b>Entry Title</b>
tracked at <i><u>Dave’s Blog</u></i>
on <i>Wed Feb 25 at 8:15pm</i>
where Dave’s Blog is a link back to where the trackback came from.
Make sense?
Yeah, that’s making sense, but for some reason, I’m not able to send a trackback to anyone. wth?
Ok, i fixed the formatting. re-download the file to get the latest.
Ok, got that. One more issue: I can’t seem to change the date format. No matter what I change it to, it keeps displaying the same way.
Hm… you used:
format=”[your dateformat]” ?
I looked at the code it should work… unless something changed in the convert date function in EE.
Yes, that’s the format I used. I just replaced what was already there. But nothing changed.
Hmm i tested it here, and it works fine. have you tried just hardcoding it? on line 77 of the code, replace the $datetimeformat variable with the format that you wish to display the date in.
Dude, I deleted the date formatting altogether and replaced it with “nodate”, but it still displayed the date. Am I not changing it in the right place? What line of the file should I be editing?
ok, i’ll try that
oops, that’s line 71. was looking at the wrong code. :P
dave, if you have any instant messenger, this would be incredibly easier. LOL what do you have and I’ll tell you mine. that almost sounds wrong.
Ok, it worked when I hardcoded it on line 71. But I’m puzzled as to why it didn’t work when I changed the format earlier (I changed both lines 27 and 131 and it had no effect at all)
