The trackback to this post is wrong on Matt’s site. That was part of the bug problem I had this morning. I’ll ask him to fix it. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. We’ll work on figuring out the other problem links. Just let us know. THANKS!

This particular time I noticed it on the pingback from this post on Matt’s blog. But I’ve travelled over here and gotten 404s before via the Dashboard. I’ll make a note next time it happens (since my memory is horrible and I can’t remember the other times it’s happened).

Do you mean the links from your wordpress.com Dashboard to other wordpress.com posts?

I had a problem with a post today, in fact this article. The post-slug, the name of the post in the permalink, was wrong and had to be changed. That change happened a few minutes after posting, so the link in the Dashboard might be to the old “wrong” post slug.

I’ll look into other links, but be sure to use the Feedback feature in your wordpress.com Admin Panels to let the developers know about this. The Dashboard is changing all the time and there may be some problems with it and they need to know.

There was a problem when the new dashboard was released, showing future posts as well as current posts. Those links resulted in 404 Page Not Found errors because they hadn’t been posted. The developers jumped on that to fix it fight away.

Thanks!

Forgive this, it’s off topic, but I’ve noticed that the links to your posts in say the Dashboard and pingbacks are wrong.

I always end up with a 404 when I click over. I wonder why, I haven’t noticed that with any other blogs here.
