When a user sees a link, they click on it, and the image shows up by itself for no apparent reason.  This has several drawbacks:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>This is bad for SEO because these links are dead ends.<\/li>\n<li>User experience is diminished due to wasted clicks.<\/li>\n<li>Potential for higher bounce rate since no easy method is provided to get back to the site except for the browser \"Back\" button.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>This plugin uses a standards compliant HTML DOM parser (http:\/\/sourceforge.net\/projects\/simplehtmldom\/). It does not use regular expressions (regex) to accomplish link removal and therefore will not break your site pages or mess up your theme.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Support<\/h3>\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"mailto:&#115;&#121;&#x73;d&#101;&#x76;&#x40;&#108;&#097;&#x74;c&#111;&#x6d;&#x73;&#121;&#115;&#x74;&#x65;&#109;&#x73;&#x2e;&#099;&#111;&#x6d;\">sysdev@latcomsystems.com<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Download the latest zip file and extract the <code>lcs-image-nolink<\/code> directory.<\/li>\n<li>Upload this directory inside your <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory.<\/li>\n<li>Activate 'LCS Image Nolink' on the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt>Why does WordPress create image self-links?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>This is the default WordPress functionality and cannot be turned off using regular settings.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>Will your plugin break some pages on my site?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>No.  This plugin uses an HTML DOM parser and is fully standards compliant.
