I just upgraded to 7.3 and have discovered that links in new posts and signatures are given the "no follow" attribute. I would like to turn that off I have no idea how to go about it.

I am not too worried about the "no follows" in the posts but would at a minimum like to get rid of the "no follows" in signatures.

Any help is appreciated

I guess what I would really need would be for someone to confirm the files that I would need to edit in order to make the change. That could save me a lot of trial and error - the error part is what worries me...

Never mind - I fixed it.

please share the information about the files you changed, that might help somebody who is running into the same issue.

I edited /libs/bbcode.inc.php - just the one file and just one incidence in the file. This removes the no follow in posts as well as in the signatures.

It would be nice if it were possible to put no follows on a particular group (new members) that would expire when the group reached a certain number of posts and graduated to another group - but that is beyond my abilities.
