wp_auto_approve_ping │ filter-hook │ WP 7.1.0

Filters whether a pingback is approved without being held for moderation.

Defaults to true for pingbacks originating from a published post on the same site, and false for every other pingback. Trackbacks are never considered, as they cannot be verified.
