Migration from AnandPatel.SeoExtension
Please note that this plugin was originally created by AnandPatel, however after 2 years of no support and many issues with the plugin, we have taken over the plugin development and maintain it under a new repository. This new version fixes the server errors in the old plugin.
- Backup Blog Posts - The fields added by
AnandPatel.SeoExtensionare renamed and prefixed withpowerseo_in the migrations, which might fail on some servers if the right extensions aren't installed. - Install
SureSoftware.PowerSEO - Remove
AnandPatel.SeoExtension
As all the syntax for the components are same for the AnandPatel.SeoExtension, to upgrade you only need to remove the
AnandPatel.SeoExtension plugin and add SureSoftware.PowerSEO. All settings and component parameters should be
migrated across.

Nice plugin and really appreciate the responsiveness of the developers to issues raised on the Github repo.
Easy way to add the basics needed for optimisation, I'm hopeful that it will continue to develop functionality over time!

Great plugin.
One issue though.
When I'm using Rainlab.StaticPages and a repeater field
{repeater name="services" prompt="Add new benefit" tab="Services"} {variable type="text" name="headline" label="Headline"}{/variable} {variable type="staticpagepicker" name="page" label="Service Page" emptyOption="- No Page -"}{/variable} {variable type="richeditor" name="description" label="Description"}{/variable} {/repeater}in the backend the SEO fields are being added to a repeater form. It's not supposed to happen I guess
