In reply to: [SEO Ultimate] [Plugin: SEO Ultimate] Rich SnippetRich Snippet Creator has no admin page. It adds fields to the “SEO Settings” box under the post editor. When you enable/disable it in the Module Manager, you’re enabling/disabling its functionality in the post editor box.

In reply to: [SEO Ultimate] custom header/footer per page/postI assume you’re referring to changing the theme’s header and footer on individual posts? If so, that’s outside the scope of this plugin, unfortunately. You may wish to find a theme that will do that for you.

In reply to: [SEO Ultimate] Problem with KeywordsAny keywords you put into the “Sitewide Keywords” field will apply to your whole site. That’s what the field does.
Do you only want your main keywords to appear on the homepage? If so, put them into the “Blog Homepage Meta Keywords” field.

In reply to: [SEO Ultimate] SEO Ultimate Plug In Got CorruptedYes, you can safely delete the plugin files. Doing so will not delete the SEO data, because this is stored in the database, not in the plugin files.
Uninstalling the plugin, on the other hand, will delete the data. So be sure not to click the “Uninstall” option.
If you’re worried about losing your data, be sure you have a backup of your database before doing anything.
SEO Ultimate (when configured with the default settings) searches for these page/category conflicts and adjusts the permalink rules accordingly so that the pages remain accessible, whereas WordPress SEO doesn’t have this feature (but of course, it’s possible that Joost may add it to a later version).
Nothing went wrong with the migration. It’s just that not all SEO plugins have the same feature set, so when you switch plugins you’ll inevitably gain some features but lose others. If you want the page to remain accessible, you’ll either need to rename/delete the category or else continue using SEO Ultimate for the permalink functionality.

SEO Ultimate developerThanks for bringing this to our attention, and thank you for resurfacing this thread. We’re aware of it and hopefully we’ll be able to put out a fix.

In reply to: [SEO Ultimate] [Plugin: SEO Ultimate] Twitter Card Not Fully IntegratedYes, Twitter pulls from the og tags as a fallback.
When the Twitter card processor looks for tags on your page, it first checks for the Twitter property, and if not present, falls back to the supported Open Graph property.

In reply to: [SEO Ultimate] [Plugin: SEO Ultimate] Syntax error ver. 7.5.7Hmm, that’s very odd, for two reasons. The first reason is that line 1 of that file is this:
/**
…and obviously, that’s not an “if” statement. The first line of actual code (i.e. code that’s not a comment) does include an “if” statement, but it’s this one:
if (class_exists(‘SU_Module’)) {
This is also odd because that same line exists at the beginning of every other module file too, so if that line was truly breaking author-links.php, then it should be breaking every other module as well. (In other words, if that line of code is the problem, then deleting author-links.php would not be effective at getting rid of the error.)
Not to alarm you or anything, but is there perhaps a virus on your site that could be adding code to the beginning of author-links.php? If you were to re-upload the file, and if your site were to crash again, would you be able to perhaps re-download it from your site, or else use a file editor in your web host’s control panel, to view the contents of the author-links.php and see if there’s any code added to the beginning? (or perhaps even code removed from the beginning?)

In reply to: [SEO Ultimate] [Plugin: SEO Ultimate] Ordinary debugging pls!I do realize that there were a lot of bugfixes after the 7.5 release. However, I’d like to point out that most of the bugfixes in these minor releases actually targeted old bugs that existed before the 7.5 launch. In other words, the majority of the bugs fixed in 7.5.1 – 7.5.7 were not caused by changes committed in 7.5.
Yes, sometimes bugfixes are launched one after the other. I typically launch a bugfix as soon as the bug as fixed, so that everyone can get the updated version as soon as possible. Sometimes this even means more than one bugfix release in a day, if a new bug is reported or uncovered after the previous bugfix release.
I do understand that this system of launching bugfixes as soon as they’re ready makes it a pain for those like yourself who install every single patch via FTP. If automatic upgrading isn’t an option on your site, then I would recommend simply refraining from installing every single patch. Most of the bugfixes in the last seven minor releases, for example, fixed bugs that were fairly trivial, and chances are you didn’t even notice most of them. If you’re not affected by a bug, you don’t have to install the fix as soon as it comes out. Perhaps you could choose to check for updates to SEO Ultimate just once every couple of weeks (unless of course there’s a bug that’s affecting you specifically, in which case you can install the fix out of cycle).
@joshcanhelp: SEO Ultimate supports rewriting titles for the custom post type objects themselves, but currently not the archive page for a custom post type. If you’d like to use a wp_title filter, go to SEO > Title Tag Rewriter > Settings and set the rewrite method option to filter. (Be sure to check the Help tab for implementation instructions.)
@sebchauss: Post Format Archives means archive pages for different post formats like status/chat/image/aside/etc. If your theme doesn’t support post formats then SEO Ultimate won’t show them.
