Hi,

Got the "share buttons" but what do you mean with "links"?

All links are now nofollow?

Thanks

You can share using share buttons and share links, so the changelog only refers to share links not all links in the posts.

Robert i do not understand what you say.

But i see that outgoing links are now NOFOLLOW and that is a very bad choice. Why nofollow?

@dimalifragis,

this is not a new feature. wpForo has always set nofollow to all external links. The changelog in 2.2.7 is not related to this. We've only added nofollow to share buttons/links. But the nofollow rel in posts was added from earlier version of 1.x.x. And it's ok to have nofollow to all external links.

If you want to exclude some external links and make them dofollow use the corresponding options in wpForo > Settings > wpForo SEO admin page.
