Removing the Trackback link

If you only want the comment link on your site, you can remove the trackback link by editing your template. The following instructions are generic so the specific code may vary depending on your blog publishing tool. The procedure, however, is the same.

To remove the trackback link:

1. Open your blog template to edit.
2. Locate the HaloScan comment link code, it will look something like this (the 'Name' section may be different):

   <a href="javascript:HaloScan('Name');" target="_self"><script type="text/javascript">postCount('Name');</script></a> | <a href="javascript:HaloScanTB('Name');" target="_self"><script type="text/javascript">postCountTB('Name'); </script></a>
3. In that section of code, delete the second half that appears after (and including) the |. That should leave you with something like this:

   <a href="javascript:HaloScan('Name');" target="_self"><script type="text/javascript">postCount('Name');</script></a>
4. Save your template.
5. Republish your blog.

The trackback link should no longer be displayed.
