The comment area of your posts should be a place where your readers can talk and discuss things with you and eachother. It’s annoying if this discussion is interrupted by a few trackback announcements. Tidy up the comment area by putting the comments in one pile and the trackbacks in another.
<?php if ( $comments ) : ?> <?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?> <?php $comment_type = get_comment_type(); ?> <?php if($comment_type == 'comment') { ?> <!-- It's a comment --> <!-- Comment content goes here --> <?php } else { $trackback = true; }?> <?php endforeach; ?> <?php if ($trackback == true) { ?> <!-- It's a trackback --> <ol id="trackbacks-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 : ?> <?php endif; ?>
