Daily List of Working Ping URLS
Written by Bec on September 17, 2008 – 4:12 PM -
Keeping up with ping errors from the sites you’ve added to your ping urls service list can be a bit of a pain, especially since you can’t really tell if it’s just an occassional problem or whether the ping site has actually gone offline. Crappytools provides a daily list of known working ping sites, as well as listing questionable returns for the day. A quick print out and a comparison to your active list can help you weed out some dead url wood.
On another related note, for those of you looking for a current version of the Smart Update Pinger, a new revised version has been undertaken by another author at Ultimate Plugins, as the original plugin has been discontinued by its creator.
“The Ultimate Plugins Smart Update Pinger replaces the standard WordPress build-in ping functionality and makes many improvements to it. It is based on, and an improved version of, the (now discontinued) “Smart Update Pinger v2.00” by Christian Davén.”
Features:
1. Works for all wp 2.0+ releases
2. For future posts, services are only pinged when the post has appeared on your blog
3. Reverse (newest entries first) logging
4. More detailed ping & error logging
5. Auto-selects whether to do an extended or normal ping depending on server capability
6. For extended pings, it uses the new URL instead of just the homepage URL to ping
