WARNING If you upgraded to version 2.10 and higher and have problems - please download version 2.05 or help me to debug - currently It seems like I'm having problems with blogs on PHP4.

If you are having problems even with 2.05 Then please download version 0.071 - it's slower, doesn't have functionality, but works fine on servers with the worst settings.

Still not good? Tell me about your problems in my blog.

Mask all external links to internal! In your own posts, comments pages, authors page... It does not change anything or write to base - just processes output.

Now you don't need to worry about your page rank or index, dropping because of spam bots. You write any kind of http link - and it becomes internal or hidden! You can configure plugin to work with your own posts, pages comments and authors's profiles. Of cause, the link will still be usable :).

NEW!!!!!

• Now you can also disable link rewriting, and use "rel=nofollow" and <noindex> tag instead of it - everything as you wish!
• From version 2.0 you can make all links open in new window!
• After many requests, I finally made an option to disable masking for concrete URLs and posts.
• Plugin works now without any magic with .htacess - you just install it and it works, and determines itself, if you need to rewrite permalinks, or use default link structure.
  Have fun!

Example

In short, your links like "http://gmail.com" will be masked into
"http://YourBlog.com/goto/http://gmail.com" - or
"http://YourBlog.com?goto=http://gmail.com"

Now you can even tansform simple link "<a href="http://google.com">google</a>" to
"<noindex><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://google.com">google</a></noindex>"

Just one poplular question :)

- Is it an evil hack and black SEO?!
- Before you say such awful things, read at least Google's topics on SEO

Note

<noindex> tag is used mostly by russian search system "Yandex" (yandex.ru), and non-russian users don't usually need it.
