<h4>FEATURES:</h4>
<ul>
<li>One click on editor button help to hide external links in search engine index</li>
<li>Automatically disallows indexing of all commenter’s links.</li>
<li>Simple shortcode [link][/link] easily hides any links in widgets or comments texts.</li>
</ul>
<h4>USAGE</h4>
<ol>
<li>In text editor place cursor on link</li>
<li>Click on HideLinks button to add shortcode before and after link. Sample: <code>[link]external link[/link]</code></li>
</ol>
<h4>TESTING</h4>
<p>After installing and activating plugin, hidden links look like ordinary ones. This moment can mislead and complicate work of plugin.</p>
<p>You can check whether plugin works correctly in two ways.</p>
<ol>
<li>On page, where there are hidden link or user comments, press keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+U — new tab with source code opens.</li>
<li>Now press Ctrl+F on keyboard — field for text searching appears. Enter phrase in it data-link and press Enter on your keyboard.</li>
<li>Browser found in source code all matches with necessary phrase (it is present in hidden link). In search box to the right of entered phrase, inscription with number of found matches appears (i.e. hidden links), and near — arrows for transition to previous and next found fragment.</li>
<li>If in found fragment after phrase data-link goes link address you have hidden (or site address commentator) — it means that plugin hides link.</li>
</ol>
<p>Sample: <code><span data-link="http://mylink.com" data-target="_blank" title="Title" class="link">anchor</span></code> not like this: <code><a href="http://mylink.com" target="_blank" title="Title" class="">anchor</a></code></p>

Ayuda WordPress

Fernando Tellado

<p><strong>This plugin is now part of <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/native-aeo-pack/" rel="ugc">Visibility</a>.</strong></p>
<p>Everything this plugin does is bundled into Visibility, a single lightweight<br />
plugin that unifies the three AyudaWP “Native SEO” plugins (Meta Tags, NoIndexer<br />
and Sitemap Customizer) into one, built entirely on WordPress native features.</p>
<p>This plugin still works and stays available, but new features and fixes now go<br />
into Visibility. If you’re setting up a new site, install Visibility<br />
instead of this one.</p>
<h4>Moving to Visibility</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install and activate <strong>Visibility</strong>.</li>
<li>Open its settings, enable the modules you need (Meta Tags, NoIndex, Sitemap)<br />
and set your site-wide options.</li>
<li>Deactivate this plugin. Visibility reminds you while both are active,<br />
because running both at once prints duplicate tags.</li>
<li>Check your page source: you should see a single set of tags, from Visibility.</li>
</ol>
<p>Your settings are not imported automatically in this first version. Site-wide<br />
options take a minute to re-enter. For per-post values (individual noindex/nofollow,<br />
custom titles and descriptions, Open Graph images), deactivate this plugin rather<br />
than deleting it, so the data stays in place for the automatic importer planned<br />
for a future Visibility release.</p>
