    Default REW Forum Questions

    I have a couple of general questions (one about my blog, and one about the forum itself). Where should I post these? Should I PM someone?

    This thread, I guess. Since it already exists.

    I was trying to figure out how many posts are required in order to have the "no follow" tag removed from the links in my signature. This is post #372 for me, and the links are still tagged this way.

    I found this thread that seems to indicate that the no follow is removed after 350 posts:

    http://www.realestatewebmasters.com/thread16721.html

    Is this still correct?

    My other question is regarding my REW blog, which I would like to start using more often, since it seems like a good way to get some additional exposure.

    I am trying to get the "Visit my Blog" link to appear under my name when I post, and it seems like the way to do this is to put in my "REW Forum ID" under "Blog Settings"? I have tried to get this to save several times, but each time I try this it says that it is saved, and it reloads the settings form with only that field blank. Do I need to do something differently, or is there a secret to this that I can't figure out?

    Thanks very much for your help!

    I'm fairly certain the number of posts you need is 300 or 359. I don't know if it's automatic, however... as I still have NoFollow and I have almost 4000 posts.

    As for the "Visit my blog," are you putting your forum name? Because it's a number id. Yours is 22. Put 22 in there and it should work.

    Guys try updating your signatures (Just a small edit) in your user CP and see if your nofollows are removed if not I will rebuild the user tables and force update them
    Thanks
    Looks like you got the blog ID working Jason

    If you delete part of your sig.

    Save.

    Then re-add what you actually want it to be back, it will fix and remove the no-follow.

    Thanks to all of you for the help. Both items are now resolved. I used the 22 and it worked immediately, and I deleted part of the sig, saved, then added it back and saved again. I tested it on a couple of threads and the "no follows" are gone now.

    I appreciate it very much!

    On another note, having been more actively involved on this site lately, I have learned a LOT. There are a bunch of small tips (and bigger tips) to be found here. Good stuff!

    How do you determine this number?

    Malok - Yours is 10519 - you can hover over your user name and it shows the number at the end.
