I want to just put nofollow within the question/comment section of the pages to keep spammers from inserting link nuggets along with there questions to get extra juice. I have looked and can't find how or where to add the nofollow to the templates. I found them within the profile pages when I wanted to remove the nofollow from the website filed, but not on the question page.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Levi, as far as I can tell, in the trunk tip, links of the form www.mysite.com get the rel=nofollow attribute. But links inserted by the link button on the editor toolbar, of the form:

[website link text][1]
[1] http://www.mysite.com/

do not get the rel=nofollow. And there's now a config option so that once users have achieved a certain reputation/karma level, their links no longer get the nofollow tag.

Why this difference? All the links from low-karma users should get the nofollow tag.

@Andrew_S, your saying within there post when it comes to low-karma, or within their profiles?

I don't know - I just did a bit of prodding around on my dev server with the latest build, and found that some links got nofollow, and others didn't.

I had a lot of trouble because I'm new to Django/Python, but finally got it working. I posted how I did it step by step as an answer to another question.
