How to create a no follow parameter for links in the comments section of my blog?

[HuwenArnone]

Someone commented on my blog with a link I don't want to be crawled, how do I insert a no-follow parameter there?

Hi @HuwenArnone,

Are you looking to add the nofollow only to this specific comment with a link, or all blog comments that contain links?

Hello @Josh,

I want to give the no-follow to a specific comment with a link in my comment section!

If you know how I could proceed, I would really appreciate an answer.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @HuwenArnone,

I've done some digging, but unfortunately, I don't think you'll be able to add a nofollow only to one comment without being able to edit that comment directly in the database.

You could do something that made all comments nofollow, but it doesn't sound like that's ideal.

There may be other workarounds, but these are my initial conclusions.

One quick add...just based on my opinion, if the link isn't worthy of a follow, the comment may not be worth keeping.

Totally, @Josh.

I was already thinking about deleting the comment, thank you very much for your help.
