Dear Perlmonk Guru's,

Is there a way to see if anyone has linked to one of your nodes, either in another reply or on their home node?

Thanks.

    You could do a Super Search (it does include home nodes) and 'match text containing' one of the following:
    [Determining who has linked to one of your nodes?] [id://508801]
    But that's only going to get hits that were properly linked .. also won't include pages that linked to thread's parent in which you had a reply.

      Cheers.

      It would just be cool to know that someone else might of found a node you'd written useful, that's all.

    There's an option " /msg me when there's a reply to one of my posts" in your user settings to let you know of replies to your posts instantly.

    I know that saving all of them isn't quite the way you imagined, but it's still a possibility.

    Cheers, Sören

    The only thing I can think of is a little Kibo'ish search, like: Match text containing "ghenry", Exclude authors "ghenry". At least then you'll know where your monk ID has been used by others.

    All code is usually tested, but rarely trusted.

    it would be nice to find all your nodes that have been linked to. not just a particular one... any ideas?
