Not sure how to edit this.. I am wanting to apply a rel=”nofollow” to each of the lists where their link is for their website. Any suggestions?

    Hey Dustin I want to say that WordPress SEO has something built in for this but can’t remember exactly where it is: http://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/. Can you perhaps check it out and let us know.

  2. Andrew Misplon Staff 11 years, 9 months ago

    I think it might only be for certain pages that the plugin automatically adds this: https://yoast.com/articles/wordpress-seo/#nofollowmeta.

    Are you perhaps able to just add nofollow manually to the links you don’t want crawled.

    WordPress SEO by Yoast allows me to apply a nofollow for the listing. After I apply the Yoast plugin and make the nofollow change to the list, I “inspect element” and see no change in code unfortunately. I would like the listing to still be indexed just not the URL. I will keep checking.

    The only reason I want to do this is because of spammy sites that some people want me to link to lol.

    Are you able to view the link in the Text tab and just add the nofollow manually?

    Below is the “list page temp” not tech savvy enough with PHP or JavaScript to figure out how. Any suggestions? (If I would even edit this page.)

    Hi Dustin

    Please attach the template to an email and send it to [email protected] and I’ll take a look.
