Hey,

I've tried searching, but can't seem to find it well.

What's the latest SEO plugin for MyBB?

Regards
Ryan

Too slooooow Toungue
I'm so confused, it looks so hard to install it?
Yes, it looks hard, but it really isn't. Read the documentation.

All you need to do is upload the /inc/ folder within the plugin package to the root of your MyBB installation (if it asks you to overwrite the folders, select yes). Then rename the functions.php-1.6.2-googleseo file (don't worry, it works in 1.6.3) to functions.php and upload that to the /inc/ folder. After that, you need to install and activate the plugin in your Admin CP. It will show you a small piece of code which you need to add to your htaccess.txt file (located in the root of your MyBB installation). Finally, rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess (note the dot in the beginning).

Let me know if you need further help.
I just get 404 pages now? Thank you for the amazing help so far though!
That means the htaccess file wasn't setup properly or wasn't renamed. Can you post the contents of your htaccess file?
I've definitely done something wrong - because I edited it before I read your comment, then I didn't delete whatever I did wrong..
