From the developer

apasionados's own description of Image Credits nofollow, lightly tidied.

This plugin adds credits to the media uploads: Source and source URL. URLs are nofollow (no follow) by default, but you have the option to follow them. With a shortcode and various options to display image credits in the posts.

The three display options of the credits are:

  • Shortcode: [image-credit] with optional attributes are sep, before and after.
  • Template Tag: the_image_credits() with optional parameters are sep, before and after.
  • Display the credits automatically before or after the content.

There is a setting page in SETTINGS / IMAGE CREDITS that allows to setup the automatic credit display, including the HTML definitions.

This plugin is a fork of the Better Image Credits plugin by Claude Vedovini, which is a fork of the Image Credits plugin
by Adam Capriola. This plugin is 100% compatible with both of them, so if you are already using the Image Credit plugin or the Better Image Credit plugin, just replace them
with this one and it will work about the same way, including the nofollow of the Source URL of the images.

The main difference with the “Image Credits” plugin is that you can choose that the plugin automatically adds the credits before or at the end of a post.
The main difeerence with the “Better Image Credits” plugin is that the Source URL links are NOFOLLOW by default and you can choose to make it DOFOLLOW if you want. We also removed the OVERLAY display option, which included additional Javascript and we think is not usefull because of the compatibility problems with the different themes.

What can I do with this plugin?

This plugin adds the Source Name, Source URL and the option to follow the Source URL link to the media uploaded in WordPress.
And this image credits can be displayed in three different forms.

How do I configure the plugin?

Please navigate to SETTINGS / IMAGE CREDITS and choose options or fill in the data. Everything is self-explaining, incluiding help texts.
