Add rel="nofollow" admin setting is not working right, its making parent domain link as nofollow

Yes, I agree. However I think we should just rename setting exclude_rel_nofollow_domains to follow_links_domains, because exclude_rel_nofollow_domains is essentially doing the same thing. So:

  • By default meta.discourse.org will only follow meta.discourse.org, a.meta.discourse.org, etc.
  • If the user adds discourse.org to follow_links_domains setting then meta.discourse.org will also follow discourse.org, www.discourse.org, try.discourse.org, etc.

Sounds good?
