How to Switch Comments to NoFollow? | Help Desk | Yakezie Forums

Hey all,

Somewhere in upgrading my theme, my comment links are now dofollow. I know it's not the end of the world, but considering that it could be hurting my rankings, I'd like to switch it back.

I have tried to research it, but I can't seem to come up with an answer. My suspicion is that my current SEO plugin is making the comment links dofollow, but I have no clue how to change it.

BTW, my theme is Headway and I looked at their support forums and there doesn't appear to be anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks Eric -I appreciate the help. Although, some of the links on that page were out of date. I ended up figuring it out. I had to temporarily de-activate the yoast plugin to select a nofollow option and then re-activate the plugin and it worked. Weird how that works sometimes…

It was more of a theme issue, but not really a theme issue. When I have Yoast activated, I couldn't select to have my comments nofollowed. I turned Yoast off for a min. to turn my comments to nofollow and then turned yoast back on.

Overall, I highly recommend Yoast. It's a very powerful plugin and much easier to use than All in One SEO, in my opinion.
