Make all links nofollow

[Ingenious]

Is it possible please to make all links posted by users, whether admin, moderator or not, nofollow?

I am sure I saw a file edit to do this but I can't for the life of me find it, search for "make all links nofollow" doesn't return much.

Thanks

That is the relevant file anyways. You should be able to force nofollow for everyone by editing this to always be true:

		$options['states'] += array(
			'noFollowDefault' => $options['noFollow']
		);

can you explain little more which value exactly need to be replaced..

if (stripos($text, '[/attach]') !== false)

replace to

if (stripos($text, '[/attach]') !== true)

????

Jake's code change above works great. Just change the bit after => to true (in the file library/XenForo/ViewPublic/Helper/Message.php), all links are then nofollow including admin and mods.

$options['states'] += array(
'noFollowDefault' => true
);

is it possible to set this option for mod only excluding admin..

ok i know this is old but does this changing all links to no follow affect my own inner pages. I ran a test on my site and it shows this as no follow
<a href="find-new/posts" rel="nofollow">Recent Posts</a>
<a href="find-new/posts?recent=1" rel="nofollow">Recent Posts</a>

Hi @Tinted,

Out of the box the New Posts / Recent Posts links have "nofollow" by default because they are considered search pages within XF.
