A Joomla 1.5 Plugin to insert the rel="nofollow" attribute within outgoing links

Joomla 1.5
plg_metaNoFollow

The "nofollow" is an HTML attribute value used to instruct some search engines that a hyperlink should not influence the link target's ranking in the search engine's index.
It tells the search engines not to count this link in their search ranking calculations.
This could be of use for your own search engine ranking if you had pages with many outward bound links.

You can download it here - Download - The price is ?8.00.

Joomla 1.5 rel=nofollow Plugin

How it works -

If the page is from a section or category enabled via the parameters the plugin is parsed unless the page id is specifically excluded.
It also excludes any authors whose IDs are entered in the parameters.
It parses the page content for links.
It then inserts the rel="nofollow" attribute on any link that is not from the site, i.e. only external links.

N.B. If you enter a Section ID then all articles in that Section will have nofollow except if they are entered in the ignored articles box.
As with ALL Joomla plugins this ONLY operates on content.
If you need the ability to make Menu items nofollow contact us for this solution.

Installation -

Install in the normal way via Extensions-->Install/Uninstall.
Enable the plugin via Extensions-->Plugin Manager.
Insert the section or category id of the articles you want to include the rel="nofollow" in.
You can exclude particular articles by inserting their id in the 3rd text box.
You can exclude particular authors by inserting their id in the 4th text box.
Multiple id's should be comma separated, no spaces e.g. 3,4,5
You can choose whether the external links open in a new window i.e. include the target="_blank" parameter.

The links will be changed from -

<a href="http://www.GJCWebdesign.com">GJC Web Design</a>
to
<a href="http://www.GJCWebdesign.com" rel="nofollow">GJC Web Design</a>
