rel="nofollow" to Dynamic Pages - blocking my own site!

I've always had the "Add rel="nofollow" to ALL Dynamic Pages" enabled, and I think it is the default.

However, I noticed that all links going to ANYTHING, even outside the forum folder, that are dynamic on my website are being blocked with "nofollow." This is very bad in some cases. Example, I have a huge photo gallery that lies outside the forum folder (ex: forum is in /forum and photos are in /photos). I have wondered for a VERY long time why none of the pictures/pages in that gallery are indexed in Google. Well, it turns out VBSEO is adding "rel=nofollow" to all the links to my own website that are dynamic (php/script based) -- even if they are NOT inside the forum folder.

Yes, I could just turn that feature off. However, based on it's description below:

"Enable this option to prevent search engines from following ALL dynamic links. Some examples are: 'Post Reply' links, 'Quote' links and 'Quick Reply' or 'Search' links. These pages have non-relevant (or "noise") content which should not be indexed by search engines , resulting in better SEO. "

Disabling this would cause all the internal forum pages that should have rel=nofollow added to now become indexed. I used to manually edit templates a long time ago to achieve this and it was one of the reasons I bought vbseo. I don't see why this has to be an all-or-nothing option. Why can't we have a whitelist/regex for links to our OWN website. I know we have it for external links -- so why not our OWN pages? It's important to block a lot of the junk pages in vbulletin, so why not have an option to just block those pages and not everything on your whole domain?

Maybe this isn't a 'bug,' but the enabling of this feature and how it's implemented makes it pretty useless to many sites -- and harmful in fact. Disabling the feature removes one of the big benefits of VBSEO.

vbseocp.php#ext_rel
is the setting for external links. it is separate from the dynamic page setting.

I'm talking about links external to the forum, not the domain name. When i turned off the "Add rel="nofollow" to ALL Dynamic Pages" option, my links to my own website (same domain as forum but different folder) were fixed. It's a problem with that option.

You should whitelist your own site in the options box.
