Hey,

How do I make the social icon links in my footer nofollow?

I’ve tried this: https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/make-social-icons-nofollow/#post-285216 but according to this: http://www.paulsilver.co.uk/articles/seo_check_nofollow.php the links are still do follow.

Regards.

Hi There,

Thanks for posting in. You may use the following code.

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$('footer .x-social-global a').attr('rel','nofollow');
});

Or you may just update the suggested code here:https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/how-to-make-links-in-footer-menu-nofollow/#post-1072903, to the following to work for both menu and social links in footer:

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$('footer a').attr('rel','nofollow');
});

Hope this helps.

Excellent do you know how to make image links nofollow?

Hi there,

Thanks for writing back. Do you want to do this for all image links? You can update the above code to this :

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $('footer a, a.x-img').attr('rel','nofollow');
});

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Hi again,

You can change the above code with this:

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $('footer a, a.x-img').attr({'rel':'nofollow', 'href':'http://google.com/'});
});

Don’t forget to clear your browser’s cache after adding the code. Let us know how this goes!

Hi,

Can you provide us your site url.

You can add the rel=”nofollow” to the link itself instead of using javascript.

Thanks

Hi there,

You image link set correctly as no follow. For button shortcode, we don’t have any inbuilt feature to add nofollow. Please follow this instructions for that (https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/make-rows-nofollow/#post-381226).

Hope that helps.
