We need to remove `nofollow` atribute from ALL topics in ALL categories in Kunena 2.0.2 was created by ChaosHead

I am sure that it is a bug. These are internal links, not external! The nofollow attribute says to the search robot that it shouldn't pass these links and shouldn't transfer to them seo-weight (PR). For SEO it is very bad.

Here is an example on kunena.org. Nofollow links are crossed out.

I am sure, links to topics should be follow. All the others links (links to the last answer, links to 1,2,3 pages of topics and to user profiles) should be nofollow.

Now the forum says to the search robot that it has no trust to ALL topics. And they have to it no relation.

If there is a fast solution of this problem, will be grateful. Thx.

Hello,

In the file /administrator/components/com_kunena/libraries/view.php, line 245 change the nofollow by follow :

Code:

return JHTML::_('kunenaforum.link', $uri, $content, $title, $class, 'nofollow');

I don't provide support by PM, because this can be useful for someone else.

In administrator/components/com_kunena/libraries/view.php
the 228 line is infact on line 221 is there something extra on the github?

The modification work nice but the links to the user profile need to stay nofollow in my opinion,

Every spammer writes a link to its own site in the profile. PR from the forum sent first to the profile, and then to the spammers site.

Therefore, links to profiles and links to sites from the profile I'd like to see nofollow.
