DoFollow bug
August 30th, 2007 by Edmund Snyder · 3 Comments
For some reason, the DoFollow plugin wasn’t working for me. I discovered yesterday that despite installing and enabling the plugin, nofollow tags were still being added to comment links.
I had to hack a root file on my server and manually remove the <rel=nofollow> occurences from the code of the file comment-template.php. After a quick check, it appears to work the way I wanted.

I wonder what would make the plugin function as intended then begin to stop stripping the nofollow? Keep an eye on it, and consider using a different dofollow plugin.
