    As the title says, links placed in posts are link rel=nofollow by default.  Can this be changed in anyway to follow?

    Cool

    Have you tried it?
    Code:
    <a href=" " rel="follow">
    I'm guessing this is what you mean.

    Are you referring to links to somewhere that is not on your forum?

    Yes that is correct. I havent tried writing the html code in the post, didnt think of that idea.  Laughing

    I just enabled HTML in posts and in user profile preferences, and yes putting the rel=follow html code in the post does the job. 

    Much appreciated, thankyou.   thumright

    Yes that is correct, links to another site. I know outgoing links dont help SEO etc , but i want to help just one site in particular, and Ramdaman's method lets me add rel=follow only where i want to, which is a good thing, and the rest of the outbound links in posts stay nofollow.

    regards.  Smile
