  • Found the plugin not useful on 11 Jan, 2019

    This plugin threw a 500 server error on several pages as it is no longer compatible with the current version of OctoberCMS. I have re-released this plugin as Power SEO with several bug fixes and the latest changes from the git repo. See the migration guide here

    It does not work unless you render all your meta in "meta" placeholder, but the documentation says nothing about this feature. Also, generateOgTags throws exception when you try to render meta for blog:

    An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Undefined property: AnandPatel\SeoExtension\classes\Helper::$page").

    I have managed to adapt this plugin to the comments section in a different html5 template that I have migrated to October CMS. With a little bit of puzzling to have the jquery events set right it worked very well.

    One very nice to have feature for the next version of this plugin is to add the website URL of the visitor who is commenting. Often I notice that this is an extra that helps people to comment and to have a clickable URL of their own website.

    And another nice to have feature is a registration of the IP address of the visitor who is commenting.

    I managed to convert all my Wordpress comments, but I wouldn't like it to lose the URL's entered by visitors.

    Useful

    This is a very useful plugin and allows for the necessary fields to be added to content pages.

    One small issue that could be addressed in a future update is the permissions in the October CMS Backend. Because there aren't any permissions specified, any logged in user can make changes to the SEO configuration in the settings. Ideally, it would be configurable like most plugins, so that permissions can be specified for specific users, groups, etc.

    Great plugin! But, it has a bug... When I install SEO before BLOG, it gives me an error, due to not having certain fields at "rainlab_blog_post" or something
