 * The link in the admin page is not no-follow in editor, but on the published post
   page, the external link is no-follow. How to solve the problem?

 * Hi there,
 * You can find some tips on how to remove the **nofollow** attribute from your 
   links in the following Codex guide:
 * [https://codex.wordpress.org/Nofollow](https://codex.wordpress.org/Nofollow)
 * The guide details the history of **nofollow** and also offers suggestions for
   plugins to remove it.
 * Hope that’s helpful! If you have any questions on the Button theme, please don’t
   hesitate to start another thread here.

 * Hi, thanks for the help.
    But I want to remove the nofollow attribute in the 
   post. The plugins listed only removes the ones in comments.
 * When I edit the post, there is no nofollow attribute, but in the published post
   page, the link has nofollow attribute. Here is one example:

 * If you’re not adding it manually, the `nofollow` attribute on links within posts
   may be coming from somewhere else, like a plugin. WordPress doesn’t add a `nofollow`
   on links within post content by default. That’s also not something Button does—
   I just tested this to confirm.
 * To figure out where they’re coming from, you could try temporarily deactivating
   all your plugins. Does the problem persist? If the problem is gone, reactivate
   your plugins one-by-one, look at the site in between each reactivation, to find
   the conflict.

 * It is solved now. Thanks so much. It does come from the plugin “
    Rss Post Importer”
