Adding support for front-page rel=publisher
-
I know that there isn’t much proof of the effect that using rel=”publisher” on the frontpage instead of rel=”author”, but Google has been slowly emphasising the importace of including it. Since there isn’t native support for it, I added a conditional for the frontpage and created a dedicated publisher account to support it.
Is this a feature that SEO Ultimate will roll out?
FYI: Here is what I added:
if ($user_id !== false) { $url = get_user_meta($user_id, 'googleplus', true); $url = su_esc_attr($url); if ($url){ if (is_front_page()) { echo "\t<link rel=\"publisher\" href=\"$url\" />\n"; } else { echo "\t<link rel=\"author\" href=\"$url\" />\n"; } } }
I know it isn’t the prettiest solution, but it works.
