No Follow links

[Eva]

Hi,
I am using the bakery pro theme and I was trying to add a “no-follow” link, I ticked the box that says add rel=no follow
but when I checked it I noticed that it didn’t show the attribute in the html text editor. Does that mean it’s not working correctly or is it somehow embedded in the theme and it’s normal that it wouldn’t show in the text editor?

Thanks

Hi Eva,

Here is the example:

<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.google.com/">Google</a>

Hi Dave,

thanks, I figured that out myself but my question was more if I use the create link button in the theme and tick the box for a no follow link and if the attribute isn’t showing in the text editor afterwards, does that mean that the function is broken or does it get added somewhere in the coding where I can’t see it? Thanks

I think this is what is actually happening, instead of adding a no follow it is adding a norefferer no opener every time the target is set to blank. This happens automatically.

Hi Eva,

Uninstall the plugin that you have used for this and install this plugin:

Rel Nofollow Checkbox
