When Trackback is enabled, any time you link to an external webpage that supports Trackback Autodiscovery, Confluence will send a trackback ping to that page to inform it that it has been linked to.

Confluence pages also support Trackback Autodiscovery and when Trackback is enabled, can receive trackback pings sent by other sites.

To enable trackback,

  1. Choose the cog icon  at top right of the screen, then choose Confluence Admin.
  2. Select 'General Configuration' in the left panel.
  3. In the 'Feature Settings' screen, click 'Edit'.
  4. Select "On' beside 'Trackback' and click 'Save'.
