Trackbacks not working when using %postname%.html permalinks?

    I changed my permalinks structure from
    /month/day/posttitle/

    to /%postname%.html

    and my readers telling me that trackbacks are no longer working..

    The trackback URL has now become something like michaelaulia.com/blogs/a-post-title.html/trackback

    Does any of you use the same permalink like mine (/%postname%.html) and have trackbacks working normally?

    Yeah its working perfectly in my blog, I do have the permalinks set up as categories postname though. But, it could be because, google blog search takes a little time to show the new permalinks trackbacks, so if you changed it recently, it might take time to show up. Dont worry, eventually it will surely show up IF they didnt use a rel=nofollow attribute.

    Nice techie site that you have there, godsofchaos! I changed it about a month ago so I'm sure the bots have updated it

    By the way, your permalinks is.../Category/Post_Title and not /Category/Post_Title.html <-- the .html
