Separating Trackbacks/ Comments (WordPress)

Hi there,

I'm having a weird problem with my trackbacks on WordPress 2.5.1.

My trackbacks show up in my comments list in the admin panel but not on my blog. They just don't exist there.

I made sure that I allowed link notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.) from my admin panel. I google the problem but didn't find anyting relevant, except reading that it might be theme-related (I use a tweaked and customized WP_premium).

I followed the tutorial to separate trackbacks and comments but of course, trackbacks still don't show.

I'm pretty new with Php and can't do much other than following tutorials/ editing code, so I'm hoping you guys can help me find the problem! This is my comment.php:

<div id="comments-wrap">
<?php // Do not delete these lines
if ('comments.php' == basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))
die ('Please do not load this page directly. Thanks!');

if (!empty($post->post_password)) { // if there's a password
if ($_COOKIE['wp-postpass_' . COOKIEHASH] != $post->post_password) { // and it doesn't match the cookie
?>

<p class="nocomments">This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments.<p>

<?php
return;
}
}

/* This variable is for alternating comment background */
$oddcomment = 'odd';
?>

<? // Begin Comments ?>
<a name="comments"></a>

<? // Begin Comments & Trackbacks ?>
<?php if ( $comments ) : ?>

<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>
<?php $comment_type = get_comment_type(); ?>
<?php if($comment_type == 'comment') { ?>

<div id="commentlist">
<a name="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>"></a>

<div class="comment-metadata"><?php if(function_exists('get_avatar')){ ?> <span style="float:left; margin-left: 2px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px;"> <?php echo get_avatar(get_comment_author_email(),50);?> </span> <?php } ?>
<span class="comment-author"><?php comment_type(__('Comment'), __('Trackback'), __('Pingback')); ?> <?php _e('by'); ?> <strong><?php comment_author_link() ?></strong></span>
<br><br/>
<span class="comment-timestamp"><?php comment_date() ?> | <a href="#comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>"><?php comment_time() ?></a></span> <?php edit_comment_link(__("Edit This"), ' | '); ?></div>
<div class="<?php if ( $comment->comment_author_email == "zhusavers@yahoo.fr" ) echo 'authorcomment'; else echo 'thecomment' ?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">

</div>
<div class="comment-body"><?php comment_text() ?></div>

</div>
<?php } else { $trackback = true; } /* End of is_comment statement */ ?>
<?php endforeach; /* end for each comment */ ?>

<? // End Comments ?>

<?php if ($trackback == true) { ?>
<h3>Trackbacks</h3>
<ol>
<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>
<?php $comment_type = get_comment_type(); ?>
<?php if($comment_type != 'comment') { ?>
<li><?php comment_author_link() ?></li>
<?php } ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ol>
<?php } ?>

<?php else : // this is displayed if there are no comments so far ?>
<p><?php _e('No comments yet.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<h6 class="postcomment"><?php _e('Say something!'); ?></h6>

<form action="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform">
<?php if ( $user_ID ) : ?>

<p>Logged in as <a href="<?php echo get_option('siteurl'); ?>/wp-admin/profile.php"><?php echo $user_identity; ?></a>. <a href="<?php echo get_option('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php?action=logout" title="Log out of this account">Logout »</a></p>

<?php else : ?>

<p>
<input type="text" name="author" id="author" class="textarea" value="<?php echo $comment_author; ?>" size="28" tabindex="1" />
<label for="author"><?php _e('You name'); ?></label> <?php if ($req) _e('(required)'); ?>

<label for="url"><?php _e('<acronym title="Uniform Resource Identifier">Your website</acronym>'); ?></label>
</p>

<?php endif; ?>

<p>
<label for="comment"><?php _e('Your Comment'); ?></label>
<br />

<?php if ( function_exists(cs_print_smilies) ) {cs_print_smilies();} ?>


<textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="60" rows="10" tabindex="4" class="textarea"></textarea>
</p>

<p>
<input name="submit" id="submit" type="submit" tabindex="5" value="<?php _e('submit'); ?>" class="Cbutton" />
<input type="hidden" name="comment_post_ID" value="<?php echo $id; ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="<?php echo wp_specialchars($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); ?>" />
</p>
<?php do_action('comment_form', $post->ID); ?>
</form>

<?php else : // Comments are closed ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

I'd be really grateful if some php lover could have a look!
