Nofollow Links in Posts

Nofollow Links in Posts plugin enables you to add the “nofollow” attribute into links in a post within a specified category.

This plugin is useful if you are doing sponsored posts. You can set the plugin to add rel=”nofollow” into links in posts older than “X” days.

Currently, the plugin only works with Wordpress 2.5+ (works up to Wordpress 2.6). There are no plans yet in making this plugin compatible with prior versions of Wordpress.

When checking the Enable individual post to override the settings option, how do you override in individual posts? Do you add rel=”dofollow” or what?

Excellent plug in BTW.

@MacBros: If you check the “Enable individual post to override the settings” the plugin simply does not apply any “rel” code to the links.

FYI, you once you’ve enabled the override settings, you can choose which posts to be excluded from being added the nofollow code via the Edit Post and Write New | Post page.

Hope this helps :)

Ahhh! I now see the added option for dofollow now.

So if I don’t check the ‘ Nofollow Links in Posts - Advanced Option’ option in the Write Post screen then the plugin will automatically add the rel=”nofollow” right, even though on the settings screen I have the ‘Enable individual post to override the settings option’ checked?

AWESOME!

Thanks for your quick reply.

There’s going to be a link back to you as soon as it comes time. You deserve it.

Maybe if I get my PR back and start making some $$ again, I’ll donate a few bucks. :p

Thanks!

Hello Miak. I’ve translated your plugin to Potuguese. Take a look here: http://www.wordpress-love.com/2008/07/plugin-wordpress-nofollow-links-em-posts-portugues/

If you need, we could make some other translations to work projects. Let me know if you need anything.
