As TorrentEditor is giving Ajax errors, here's another way to change the trackers of an already uploaded torrent online.
Note: Changing the trackers on your torrent or torrents will not change the trackers displayed here on site. It will only change the trackers in your BitTorrent client

Changing trackers of one torrent on BitTorrent.torrent

Changing trackers of one torrent on BitTorrent.torrent:
1. Go to http://rosinstrument.com/cgi-bin/pte.pl

Image error

2. Click on “Choose file” and select your .torrent file.

Image error

3. Now click on “Load torrent to edit!”.

Image error

4. You will be taken to a page where the info of your torrent is displayed.

Image error

5. Scroll down to the "announce-list".

Image error

6. Delete all trackers on the torrent.

Image error

7. Copy the new trackers into the "announce-list". You can use our up-to-date tracker list. Add one tracker per line and a maximum of 15 trackers.

Image error

8. Scroll all the way down and check the option "download the changed .torrent file".  Now click on "Change!" to download the updated .torrent file.

Image error

9. Replace the old .torrent file with the new .torrent file is in the correct folder.

Image error

10. Now double click on the new .torrent file to update the trackers in your BitTorrent client. You get the question below. Click on yes to start seeding the edited torrent with the new trackers.

If anyone else happens to use Transmission, exporting a torrent file with new trackers is very simple.

Just double click on the torrent so the properties window comes up, hit the broadcasting tower icon, then you can remove and add the trackers of your choice. Transmission should automatically update those trackers for the torrent as soon as you add them. If not it'll be done when it next updates trackers. You can force this by right clicking the torrent and hitting "Update Tracker."

If all you need to do is add new trackers to torrents you're seeding, that's it, you're done.

To save the torrent with the new trackers just right click it in the main Transmission window and hit "Save Torrent File As..."

Now you can save that new file anywhere and you can upload it - very useful for uploading old torrents with outdated trackers from elsewhere.

I use QBT, 4.5.0, and it has a new feature, of export torrent. So, I update the trackers list directly on the running torrent, and then I can export the .torrent file.
If not this, when I click on force reannounce to all trackers, it updates the list online, and it works too.
BTW, I loved the last method, it is like the best of them. All done in one go. :)

At the minute it's a delete and re-upload thing but we are currently working on something regarding torrent editing so fingers crossed and lets see :)
Any update on this one yet? I know I cannot see any update/replace/upload upon edit of any torrent. This would really help, as some of the torrents here continuously display 0/0/-1 (due to the bad trackers), even though I am seeding and have been upping continuusly. This happened even with the newtrackon lists and mostly with the IPv4 trackers. I removed all on my newer uploads, but the damage to my hard work of the last 2-3 days (5-6 torrents) shows here as 0/0/-1. :(

once you have a torrent in the only thing you can edit is the description..
any other edit like trackers or different file you would have to delete and redo it ...
you can add trackers to your client as a change also but that would mostly work for mioks list as a lot of us have it set as default for our torrents for both incomming and outgoing ... they come up on my list regardless if there used or not as there defaulted in ... any tracker change in youor client will NOT show on site but will help ...
at the bottom of your client it a yellow flame or a green globe, well looks like one ... if you see the yellow flame all the time read my port connection fix ... try not changing ports all the time either no reason and try and keep the same vpn ip both can help a lot .. :_B)

Yup. I get that. However, the reason to ask was due to the back trackers which showed in the list in the trackon website. The trackers I chose were the ones which were 95% up that time, but they turned out to be bad apples.
Also, the main reason to ask/edit feature is for my new uploads show 0/0/-1 (0/0), which will make any guest, new user, or maybe any user to not download my torrents from TGX and may also show my uploads as a potential nousecase for them. WHich will hurt the reputation. I am trying my best to give quality uploads and keep seeding myself as much as I can manage to and my space allows.
I hope you get my reason for the feature ask? :)
However, as I mentioned, I know those things as I use torrent regularly ad are simple things. I have also started doing one thing. Going to trackon, and then use trackeredit application to check their health. Also, every day I check my trackers list in the seeding torrents and remove any not working/dead ones (at least).

Edit:  Here are the ones I wish can be fixed: Image error
Just added the image showing the ones gone bad due to bad apples (trackers) choice. :(

Very thankful for this post. Used bittorrent-tracker-editor to reduce and update the trackers of old torrents which I have on other sites. Allowing me to share with the community here. I'm quite impressed with TorrentGalaxy. Great site. All the best and God bless.
