Hi,
I run a blog hosting site and it is a fairly small community easy
enough to police.
But some spammers still find ways to get in.
What I was thinking is adding nofollow tags to their links until they
reach a certain amount of posts, (or until I've had time to review
their account).
Would you have a piece of code to allow me to add the no follow tag to
<a href='....'>?
a nofollow tag would look like this:
<a href='somewhat' rel='nofollow'>somewhere</a>
// function to use for any string containing hrefs
//
function nofollow($str) {
return = preg_replac("/<a href='(.*?)'>(.*?)<\/a>/", "/<a href='$1'
rel='nofollow'>$2<\/a>/", $str);
}
