  • If you need to reference a large number of external resources, or have a user-generated content section (such as a community forum, comment section), but do not want to pass on website authority or take on the risk of external links, then disable 'Automatic filtering of external links' and let the system add them automaticallyrel="nofollow"This will be a more sensible choice.
