Do you want to add a title or nofollow tag to your WordPress links?
By default, WordPress doesn’t provide a way of adding title and nofollow attributes when creating links with the WordPress block editor.
In this article, we’ll show you how to add options for title and nofollow attributes to the Insert Link popup in WordPress.
Why Add Title and NoFollow Attributes to Links in WordPress?
When writing content, you can add links to interconnect your posts and pages and refer to articles on other sites. These links will tell visitors to your WordPress website where they can find more information on a topic.
It’s helpful to give your links a title. This will appear when someone points their mouse cursor over a link.
This can be reassuring to your readers because it makes it clear where the link leads. It also improves your site’s SEO.
SEO experts also recommend that you use a nofollow attribute when linking to external websites. This attribute tells search engines that they can crawl these links, but not pass on any link authority to these websites.
However, when you click the Insert Link icon in WordPress, there are no options to add a link title or to make the link nofollow. The popup only lets you add the Link URL and gives an option to open the link in a new window.
With that being said, let’s take a look at how to easily add title and nofollow options to the Insert Link popup on your WordPress blog.
How to Add Title and NoFollow to Insert Link Popup in WordPress
All in One SEO (AIOSEO) is the best WordPress SEO plugin and helps you improve your website SEO. You just need the free version to add extra attributes to the Add Link popup, but AIOSEO Pro offers even more features to help you rank better in search engine results pages.
Upon activation, you need to configure the plugin using the AIOSEO setup wizard. For detailed instructions, see our ultimate guide on how to set up All in One SEO for WordPress.
Once you’ve done that, the plugin will automatically add extra attributes to the Insert Link popup.
These include a title field and options to add nofollow, sponsored, and UGC (user-generated content) tags.
To add the link title, just type it into the ‘Add title attribute to link’ field. When when you save the link, AIOSEO will apply the title and any attributes you toggle on.
Do you want to sell group memberships for corporate teams?
Normally, membership websites only allow you to sell single user subscriptions. But what if you wanted to sell group memberships, so businesses can easily add their team members to the same account?
In this article, we will show you how to easily sell group memberships in WordPress for corporate teams.
Why Create Group Memberships in WordPress?
Selling membership subscriptions is a popular way to make money online blogging with WordPress. However, businesses may want to buy memberships for multiple people at once, such as an entire team or department.
Creating group memberships in WordPress makes it easier for companies to purchase your product licenses in bulk. It also allows the account administrator to easily add or remove licenses as needed.
Group memberships aren’t just useful for corporate teams. Volunteer groups and nonprofit organizations, church groups, or even families may find it easier to buy a group membership rather than multiple individual subscriptions.
You could also create this type of account to help teachers set up a virtual classroom for a group of students.
You may even allow members to re-sell your subscriptions. For instance, let’s say you run a membership site with healthy eating plans and online yoga classes.
Personal trainers or health and fitness experts could buy a corporate membership from your site and then sell access to their own clients.
That being said, let’s take a look at how to sell group memberships in a WordPress website.
Setting Up Group Memberships in WordPress for Corporate Teams
MemberPress Pro supports PayPal, Stripe, and Authorize.net. To add one of these payment gateways, simply click on ‘Add Payment Method’ and chose a payment method from the ‘Gateway’ dropdown.
MemberPress will now show all the settings you need to configure before you can use this payment gateway.
After adding one or more gateways, it’s time to enable the corporate membership features.
To do that, go to MemberPress » Add-ons and click on the ‘Install Add-on’ button next to the Corporate Accounts add-on.
Now it’s time to create a corporate membership level by going to the MemberPress » Memberships page.
Here, click on ‘Add New.’
To start, type a title for your corporate membership plan.
You can then set a price by typing into the ‘Price’ field.
Next, use the ‘Billing Type’ dropdown to create the billing cycle, for example you might charge a one-time fee for lifetime access or create a recurring monthly subscription.
In the following image, we’re charging $100 every 6 months.
Next, you need to scroll to the Membership Options area and click on the ‘Advanced’ tab. Here, check the box next to ‘Subscribers to this Membership are Corporate Accounts.’
After that, you will see a new field where you can set the maximum number of sub-accounts that the account owner can add to this subscription.
Anyone who purchases a corporate membership subscription will see a new ‘Sub Accounts’ link on their Account page.
If they click the link, then they’ll see how many sub-accounts they have left to use.
They can add people to their account by typing in information such as the person’s first name, last name, and email address.
By default, members can create an unlimited number of sub-accounts.
However, you’ll typically want to limit the number of sub-accounts to stop people from adding hundreds or even thousands of people to the same account.
To set a limit, type a number into the ‘Max Sub-Accounts’ field.
There are some more settings that you can use to further customize the membership level. However, this is enough to create a basic corporate membership subscription.
When you’re happy with how the plan is set up, go ahead and click on the ‘Publish’ button.
Restricting Content for the Corporate Team Members to Access
The next step is restricting your content so only people with the right subscription can access it. You do this by creating membership rules.
For example, you might lock all child pages of a ‘Corporate Membership’ parent page, or restrict access to all posts that have the ‘corporate’ category or tag.
To create a rule, go to MemberPress » Rules in your WordPress dashboard. Then, simply click the ‘Add New’ button.
The ‘Content & Access’ section allows you to restrict access in lots of different ways.
For example, you might make a single page members-only.
You can also restrict access to entire groups of content.
In this example, we’re going to restrict access to all content that has the ‘Corporate’ tag.
To do this, open the ‘Protected Content’ dropdown and choose ‘All Content Tagged.’ Then, type ‘Corporate’ into the field next to it.
After that, open the ‘Access Conditions’ dropdown and select ‘Membership.’
You can then open the second dropdown and choose the corporate membership level you created earlier.
There are lots of other settings that you can try, including showing a preview to non-members. For example, you might show the post excerpt to people who don’t have a corporate membership. This can encourage visitors to buy a subscription so they can read the entire post.
When you’re happy with how the rule is set up, scroll to the top of the screen and click on ‘Save Rule.’ You can create more content restriction rules, simply by repeating the same process described above.
We are often asked about how to find which files to edit in a WordPress theme.
WordPress themes consist of several different files. Sometimes it may be hard for beginners to figure out which files they should edit to make certain changes in their theme.
In this article, we’ll show an easy and quick way to figure out which files to edit in your WordPress theme.
Understanding WordPress Theme Template Files
WordPress themes consist of several files. These include template files, custom template tags and functions, template parts, images, JavaScript, and CSS files.
All the top WordPress themes follow the official best practices. This means they use the standard file and template structure to organize all the code.
For instance, all WordPress themes have archive.php, single.php, functions.php, and other files.
Each of these files is used as a template to display a particular area of your WordPress website. For example, single.php is used to display single posts and page.php template is used to display a single page.
Understanding the WordPress template hierarchy gives you a better understanding of how WordPress works.
If you ever need to add code to your WordPress theme, then it also helps you figure out which files you may need to edit.
The plugin works out of the box, and there are no settings for you to configure.
Upon activation, you need to visit the front end your website and you will notice a new ‘What The File’ menu in WordPress admin bar.
Now you need to just take your mouse over to the menu item, and it will display a drop-down menu listing the template files used to display this page.
Clicking on the file name will take you to the default WordPress file editor where you can edit that particular file.
However, we do not recommend using WordPress file editor to edit theme files because there is no undo option.
If you accidentally lock yourself out of your website, then you would have to use an FTP client to fix it. That’s why we recommend using a FTP client or the File Manager app in your WordPress hosting control panel.
You can edit theme files using any plain text editor like Notepad.
Making direct changes to your WordPress theme is also a bad idea. Those changes will disappear when you update your theme.
The ‘What The File plugin’ can help you locate the theme files that you need to copy and edit in your child theme.
Note: The menu item added by the plugin in the admin bar will be visible to all logged-in users, and it has a link to an external site. You should only use this plugin in the development environment such as a staging site.
We hope this article helped you find which files to edit in your WordPress theme.
