Clickable screenshots nofollow

Hi,

the screenshots inside that stats pages for my members are clickable but they do not have the nofollow attribute, as far as i am aware this was implemented into a visolist release and i think it is the same for everyone so everyone is passing google juice onto site they are listing, needs to be changed.

Please have a look:

Good catch, thanks Bart. Updating coming along next release. In the meantime open plugins/screenshots/stats_compile_stats.php

find
Code:
      $TMPL['screenshot'] = "<div class=\"right screenshot\"><a href=\"{$TMPL['url']}\" onclick=\"out(this,'{$TMPL['username']}');\"><img src=\"screens/{$screenshot_url}\" alt=\"{$TMPL['title']}\"/></a></div>";
replace with
Code:
      $TMPL['screenshot'] = "<div class=\"right screenshot\"><a href=\"{$TMPL['url']}\" onclick=\"out(this,'{$TMPL['username']}');\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img src=\"screens/{$screenshot_url}\" alt=\"{$TMPL['title']}\"/></a></div>";

that was intentional at the time (pagerank sculpting) :) I always liked to pass pagerank from stats pages but never from the ranking pages. If your serious about this you will also want to modify your link_codes to ensure your members are not passing PR back to your list, this was also left out intentionally.

Indeed, now that you mention it, makes sense. Should be no harm in passing from a stats page.
We should be a bit consequent though. on stats pages 3 links from which only 1 have nofollow ( breadcrumb )

I think for the sake of safety we should add nofollow to all the links on the stats page which complies with Google policies and leave it up to the admin to make the links naked if they want.
