   While this plugin is not available on the bbpress site, I post this information here to reach as many user as possible:

   Just noticed that the old version of the bbpress SEO pluging doesn't work with the current bbpress version (1.02).
   Because the old method to handle and meta keywords stopped working we did a quick update.

   This is a required update for user of bbpress 1.x!

   Using the old version with bbpress 1.x will result in loosing rankings search engine result pages!

   What is changed:

   • We fixed the code that is responsable for the meta keywords and the "noindex" option.
   • Optimizations of the admin page (information, spellcheck).

   Download the new version here:

   Hi,

   locate in the plugin file the function

   function create_seo_meta_txt($content) {
   	$raw = str_replace(PHP_EOL, ' ', strip_tags($content));
   	$raw = str_replace('  ', ' ', $raw);
   	$snippet = substring_words($raw, 120, '');
   	return htmlentities($snippet, ENT_QUOTES);
   }

   and replace "htmlentities" with "wp_specialchars".

   Let me know if this works for you. This plugin is a little quick and dirty for these functions :)
   The seo plugin for wordpress has for internationalization huge blocks of code :)

    does the new version work on bbPress 0.9?

    I also had the problem with international characters and I think I solved it the same way (using wp_specialchars)

    Hi,
    I used the almost the same version before for bbpress 0.9, it's just the one important change for old users upgraded to 1.0. Just try it or better upgrade to bbpress 1.02

    Looks like

    $row = $bbdb->get_row("
    SELECT um.meta_value AS role
    FROM $bbdb->users AS u, $bbdb->usermeta AS um
    WHERE u.ID = um.user_id
    AND um.meta_key = 'bb_capabilities'
    AND u.user_status = 0
    AND u.ID = $user_id
    ");

    returns NULL

    -

    I temporarly fixed this by adding:

    if(is_array($arr)) { on line 177

    and a closing bracket } on line 186 just before return $is_mod.
