Remove rel="bookmark" from permlinks?

Hi
I need to eliminate the rel=“bookmark” from the links the txp tag for permlinks creates.
How can I do that?

The thing is I am using a Lightbox to show full articles, and that is the only reason I cant get it to work :(

can someone help?
thanks!

Oops you subscribed to the topic huh?

Posted something for you but I then changed my mind and deleted it.

Anyway here it is.

rel=“bookmark” is very good for SEO and it is part of the core so it will not be advisable to change it as you will not be able to upgrade seamlessly.

If you post the code you are using, maybe someone will offer a solution.

As colak says, I don’t think there’s a way to remove the bookmark with TXP tags, but you might try jQuery:

jQuery(function() {
   jQuery("a[rel='bookmark']").attr("rel", "lightbox");
});

(untested) would change all anchors with rel="bookmark" to rel="lightbox".

Thanks!
I think I came up with another solution:

bc..<div class=“destacado”>
<a rel=“iframe” href=”<txp:permlink/>” title=“City Expert :: :: width: 800, height: 600” class=“lightview”><txp:upm_article_image limit=“1”/></a>
</div>

Duh yeah, you’re right. Permlink can be used as a Single tag. Forgot about that! As you were…

Can you elaborate on the rel=“bookmark” being very good for SEO. I’ve searched several SEO sites and can’t find much mentioned on it and the few things I’ve found seemed to indicate the value it provides is not of SEO nature.

I’m pretty new to the subject and not even sure how to properly implement it. What is optimal strategy and which links should use rel=“bookmark” and what are the benefits this provides?

Thanks,
