TESTING
After installing and activating plugin, hidden links look like ordinary ones. This moment can mislead and complicate work of plugin.
You can check whether plugin works correctly in two ways.
- On page, where there are hidden link or user comments, press keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+U — new tab with source code opens.
- Now press Ctrl+F on keyboard — field for text searching appears. Enter phrase in it data-link and press Enter on your keyboard.
- 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.
- If in found fragment after phrase data-link goes link address you have hidden (or site address commentator) — it means that plugin hides link.
Sample: <span data-link="http://mylink.com" data-target="_blank" title="Title" class="link">anchor</span> not like this: <a href="http://mylink.com" target="_blank" title="Title" class="">anchor</a>

- Why hidden links are displayed as ordinary text?
-
There are script errors on site and because of them code link substitution doesn’t work.
In this case, you can try to disable all plugins except HideLinks and again check links – if on site page they have become clickable, then it means that error in scripts is caused by one of plugins. Try to activate plugins one by one, checking each time whether hidden link becomes ordinary text on page.
If there is still a problem after deactivating plugins, it means that error can be caused by scripts from theme. In this case, you will need help of professional. In order to make sure that problem is in script error – you can contact technical support specifying site address.
- Зачем закрывать ссылки от индексации?
-
Главная причина сокрытия ссылочной массы с сайта – это утечка веса.
- Почему бы просто не использовать `rel=“nofollow“` для Google и „ для Яндекс?
-
Тег noindex (Яндекс) и атрибут nofollow (Google) не прячут ссылки от поисковиков, а только рекомендуют поисковым роботам не индексировать ссылки. Решение о индексации и учете этих ссылок принимается поиковой системой.
