Description

The external links plugin for WordPress lets you process outgoing links differently from internal links.

Usage

Under Settings / External Links, you can configure the plugin to:

  • Process all outgoing links, rather than only those within your entries’ content and text widgets.
  • Add an external link icon to outgoing links. You can use a class=”no_icon” attribute on links to override this.
  • Add rel=nofollow to the links. (Note: You can use a rel=”follow” attribute on links to override this.)
  • Open outgoing links in new windows. Note that this can damage your visitor’s trust towards your site in that they can think your site used a pop-under.
  • Turn on “autolinks” functionality.
  • Domains/subdomains you wish to Exclude from processing.

Auto Links

The Autolink functionality automatically converts urls to hyperlinked urls in post/page content, excerpts and text widgets.
