WordPress Plugin: NoFollow Free

NoFollow Free removes the “nofollow” attribute from your wordpress blog’s comments (precisely from the author’s links) and/or from the comments text links and it inserts (if you want) an image band at the top of your pages with the phrase: “NOFOLLOW FREE”.

To encourage your users to submit comments it has some options to replace the nofollow only when the author posted X comments before and put back the nofollow when some blacklisted words are matched. The replacement of the nofollow is also based upon the users type (registered and visitor users). Every option can be customized by the options page “NOFF“.

With the version 1.3, NoFollow Free supports multilingual, you can select which language you prefer in the option page. Actually it supports the following languages:

Since version 1.3.5 NoFollow Free comes with a nice sidebar Widget support to show the top ten charts for the top commenters.
If you would like to know how to use Widgets in your WordPress blog please refer to Automattic Widgtes howto page. To activate the NoFollow Free Widget go to admin -> Presentation -> Widgets and add the Top Ten Comments widget to your sidebar.

Requirements:

WordPress 2.x or later (I think it works in 1.5 too but I didn’t test it).

Installation:

- Download the plugin nofollow-free
- uncompress it with your preferred unzip/untar program or use the command line: tar xzvf nofollow-free.tar.gz
- copy the entire directory noff in your plugins directory at your wordpress blog (/wp-content/plugins)
- activate the nofollow-free WordPress plugin at your Plugins admin page

Usage:

When you activate the plugin it just works removing the “nofollow” attribute from your comments authors link, but if you would like have the image band at the top of your pages too, you MUST put the php function <?php noff(); ?> into your template file just below the <body> attribute like this:

<body>
<?php if (function_exists(noff())) noff(); ?>
...

Now you could setup how to show the image band and the rest of the options, go to the wp-admin page -> Options -> NOFF

The plugin is fully configurable, you could set:

- replace nofollow on author/text link ON/OFF
- replace nofollow on registered author/text link ON/OFF

- put back nofollow if blacklist words are matched

    Habe die Beschreibung dieses Tools gelesen und bin mir nicht im klaren welchem Zweck es eigentlich dienen soll. Es gibt ja viele für und dagegen. Muß aber bekennen, daß ich erst anfange mit WordPress zu arbeiten.

    Thanks for the article, thats really cool stuff :) I like your website in general, I start visiting it more and more, keep those good articles coming. Just a little suggestion, as a slots big fan myself, just wanted to suggest you to come up with some material on this subject if you can. Would be really useful for me and for other readers of your website I think :) Thanks a lot to the author!

    For me as a novice in these matters is nice to find blogs where they share information. While many things change keep abreast of changes in technology and learn more is something of great value.
    Thanks for your input.

    My blogs are both set up to moderate the first comment, and then allow any subsequent comments. Of course I have askimet for spam filtering. The blog that is older can get up to 50 spams per day.

    A look at the code and using the free dofollow plugin shows that this page is itself nofollow
