# “If Trackback enabled” function?

 * I currently use the following at the bottom of my posts to tell users I support
   Trackbacks:
 * `<a href="<?php trackback_url(); ?>" title="Trackback URI. Copy and paste this
   into your own post to create a trackback."> <?php trackback_url(); ?></a><br>`
 * My older posts do not allow trackbacks to protect against spam and… well, just
   because. Is there a function I can wrap my code in such that [pseudo-code]
 * 
 * Thanks

 * That’s not really pseudocode… more like logic…
 * I’m looking for “If the current post has trackbacks enabled, then display the
   trackback URL.”
 * Is there any such WP function?

 * I figured it out. The code was in WordPress Default Template.
 * `<?php if ('open' == $post->ping_status) { ?>
    <a>" title="Trackback URI. Copy
   and paste this into your own post to create a trackback."> <?php trackback_url();?
   ></a> <?php } ?>
