Hi,

I would like to know what file to edit to make links (Home and others categories) nofollow.
Where to add “nofollow” atribute?

May I receive support with this?

Thank you
Best regards

Hi

From backend you can use the Metadata Options >> Robots >> and set the no follow for your categories or article or menu items

Hi pavit,

Thanks for your quick response.
I don’t want to prevent all categories and items from indexing in search engines.
I want to have rel=”nofollow” links in magazine menu like in this example:

[PHP]<a id=”menu490″ class=”mega first home ” href=”http://www.example.com/” rel=”nofollow”>

<span class=”menu-title”>

Home

</span>

</a>[/PHP]

(This helps routing Pagerank for specific anchors)

Adding nofollow in Menu manager from backend results in nofollowing all category and this is not what I am asking for.

I’d like to know what files to edit to achieve this gool?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi

understood what you mean and i have doubt that this could be organized as you wish for a joomla site with dynamic content generation

Anyway you can try to manage it looking in these folder pluginssystemjat3jat3base-themesdefaultblocks

1) mainnav.php
2) head.php

Hi portalion and Punto,

Since there is no option to configure this, you need to change code in this file: pluginssystemjat3jat3coremenubase.class.php

Look for code that creates <a> tag and add like this: <a rel=”nofollow” …

Then clean JAT3 cache.

P/s: you can download and unzip below attached file , copy it to above folder (backup the old file first 🙂 )

Kind regards

Thank you again Saguaros 🙂

That works!
On my website, in file pluginssystemjat3jat3coremenubase.class.php
I added nofollow in line 541:

[PHP] $data = ‘<a rel=”nofollow” href=”‘ . $tmp->url . ‘” ‘ . $active . ‘ ‘ . $id . ‘ ‘ . $title . ‘>’ . $txt . ‘</a>’;[/PHP]

as a result all links in magazine menu have nofollow atribute.

Best regards
