#21370 closed defect (bug) (duplicate)

comment_reply_link() causes identical content to be served from two URLs

Description

comment_reply_link() returns an anchor to the current post permalink with the following appended '?replytocom=1#respond'.

This is causing two results for the same page to appear in common search engines.

​http://www.example.com/blog/blog-title
&
​http://www.example.com/blog/blog-title?replytocom=1#respond

comment_reply_link() already adds 'nofollow' to the login link if the user is logged out. The attached patch adds nofollow to the comment reply link also.
