With the new beta 20 giving url links by default a rel='nofollow'
attribute I am trying to understand the above.
Point 1 and 3 is clear to me, but pint 2 and 4 not at all.
If one has urlapproval implemented via
include_once('scripts/urlapprove.php');
then an unapproved link is not really a link, it is only followed by
an "approve sites" link, which will trigger action=approvesites.
So what is the point of $UnapprovedLinkFmt?
It seems to me that if I have urlapproval implemented and I wish to
have search bots follow the url links then I need to add to config.php
point 3:
$UrlLinkFmt = "<a class='urllink' href='\$LinkUrl'>\$LinkText</a>";
the pre-beta 20 default.
Am I missing something? Please explain.
Best,
~Hans
