Remove nofollow from links

    Hi,

    I want to remove all nofollows from the links. Can you tell me all the files where that exists in and if you see any issues with that? I’m assuming updating the plugin will be a pain since I’d have to make the same change every time I upgrade the plugin?

    It would be nice if there was an option to switch nofollow links off, but I’m sure everyone thinks all their requests should be an option too. 😛

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi el terrible bmw,

    You can change this in the plugin, but as you noted, each upgrade you’ll have to re-add this change. We can consider it for an option in the future.

    I wasn’t able to locate the source of this by searching the source code for “nofollow”, I’ll have to check and get back to you.

    Gotcha. Also, it renders the code for me as rel=”no follow” with a space in between no and follow, so it might not even be recognized by search engines as nofollow anyways.

    The atribute rel=”no follow” is in api.php (main plugin directory and in api directory). I think it should be corrected in future versions.

    We are looking to sneak this into 3.0 (allow you to specify which you want). Stay tuned.
