    The Thumbnail is a an affiliate link?

    So in the first answer all affiliate links are nofollow now it seems they are! Why have all links no follow only to make the thumbnail dofollow?

    Needs to be fixed asap.

    Hey Dave,

    The image field is intented to be used to display the product, not to use it for affiliate purpose.

    Hello

    Then why offer the option to link to the affiliate via an image without nofollow like the rest of the links?

    It now means one must go back through all the review and remove the affiliate links from the image.

    Hello Dave, it’s much easier to edit the plugin’s files and add nofollow to that link.

    Do you need help for this?

    Hello

    Yes please, if you could supply the code and the file location to make this change it would be good.

    Hello,

    In wp-product-review.php, on line 147, you should fine this:

    $return_string .= '<a href="'.$feat_image.'" '.$lightbox.'><img src="'.$product_image.'" alt="'. get_post_meta($id, "cwp_rev_product_name", true).'" class="photo photo-wrapup"/></a>';

    Simply add rel=”nofollow” in a tag, like this:
    $return_string .= '<a rel="nofollow" href="'.$feat_image.'" '.$lightbox.'><img src="'.$product_image.'" alt="'. get_post_meta($id, "cwp_rev_product_name", true).'" class="photo photo-wrapup"/></a>';

    That’s it.

    Hello

    That worked perfectly thank you.

    Do you think this will be included in the next update? If not I need to make a note on WP dashboard to change it whenever the plugin is update?

    Hello Dave,

    I believe we’ll make this change in the next update.

    Kind regards,

    Hi Marius,

    Sorry to open up an older post, but I just posted in my review that I was surprised there was no ‘no follow’ option in the wrapup for affiliate links. Am I to understand that while I do not see it in the links themselves this is automatically coded and I do not need to worry about my page ranking? Or do I still need to redirect some links. Many people online are acting a little panicky about this, so that’s why I’m asking ??

    Or do I need to add some code in the login just like Dave did. I did not link affiliates to my images by the way. I only filled in the link with my id in the appropriate box.

    Thank you so much for your help.
    Kind regards, Kalo

    Hey Kalo,

    Affiliate links are nofollowed by default, you don’t have to worry about it.
    You can check it in the page’s source if you want to see it yourself ??

    Best,
    Marius

    That’s awesome Marius!
    Don’t need to check then. But it saves me some coding ;-).
