Hi.

whats the best to remove the 'nofollow' tag from comments?

Tried downloading a plugin but to no did not work.

Also tried editing the:

comment-template.php

removing nofollow from:

$return = "<a href='$url' rel='external nofollow' class='url'>$author</a>";

but no luck. Any help appreciated.

Thanks.

Jim.

      Hi.

      I'd be most grateful if someone can confirm the following. On my site:

      www.pinkconsoles.com

      with Firefox it appears as both the name and the link in body of comment as 'nofollow' but with chrome SEO only the link is 'nofollow'. I think there may be a bug with my version of firefox.

      Much Appreciated.

      Jim.

        You have a meta tag - <meta name='robots' content='noindex,nofollow' /> right after your Title. All titles and right panel links are nofollow.

    I cant actually find the no follow statement on the source code but your logo and template is great.

    try removing the nofollow from the edit-form-comment.php file (its inside /wp-admin)

    Should be able to find it on line 109 or around about there..

    Also, its in formatting.php in wp-includes (line 1191)


    Try thos, hope it helps
