Does anyone know how or if its possible to take the no follow attribute off a wordpress blog, so that when people comment the links are do follow instead of no follow?
Cheers

I went to download the plugin from the url but when I clicked the download do follow it sent me to a page with loads of coding on, is that meant to happen?

You can copy and paste that into a NotePad file, name it dofollow.php and upload it, or...
You could install the plugin on this page

The "nofollow" are useless for SEO. Because the "nofollow" prevents search engines to be index the url which putted to the "nofollow".

I think that was the purpose of asking to get rid of the no follow. With word-press, no follow is standard for comments. You need a plug in or to change the code to get it to be a follow link.

I did not know that wordpress had that set by default. If that is the case, I am going to be more lenient on my comments. I set my comments to mod approved only because I didn't want my site linking back to some p0rn site or something like that.
