Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.I think it would be great if to have rel="bookmark" for permalinks. This usage is documented as a microformat, though it also has its detractors.
HTML5, currently a draft, explicitly describes the use of rel="bookmark" to indicate a permalink.
It should be optional, like nofollow.

andrewmacpherson commentedHere's my patch for this. Please review it and let me know what you think.
It adds an option to the admin settings page to allow
rel="bookmark"with permalinks.If both nofollow and bookmark options are checked, permalinks will have the attribute
rel="nofollow bookmark".The option defaults to false, so as not to add the feature to someone's website automatically after a module update.

todd nienkerk commentedThanks! I have added this functionality -- with a few minor changes -- to the 6.x-1.x-dev branch.

andrewmacpherson commentedHi Todd,
Thanks for including this feature, and improving my code.
However, when I tested the new code from cvs, it doesn't work - the
relattributes are not being added to the link.A wee error has been introduced; my old choice of variable name persists in one condition. Easily fixed, see patch.

todd nienkerk commentedandrewmacpherson: Sorry for the runaround there. I realized my mistake earlier this morning and fixed it. It's been committed to the dev branch (along with some handy implementations of template_preprocess functions).
