   Martin, this is a very useful plugin. I am loving it.

   A quick question thought: Do you plan on adding support for Yoast SEO Plugin?

   I was planning to use "excerpts" as "meta-description." Would you recommend this? :)

   Hi Sid,

   We wouldn’t recommend using excerpts as metadescription as excerpts don’t exist for pages since about WordPress 2.2.

   I’d recommend you use our FV Simpler SEO instead. You are a lot less likely to get into trouble than with Yoast’s everything but the kitchen sink SEO Plugin.

   That said, FV Descriptions should work with Yoast’s plugin too.

   Let us know how it works out.

   Making the web work for you, Alec

   Hello Sid,

   we are working on a revised version which will detect what SEO plugin you use and automatically give you those fields. If your SEO plugin won’t be in the list, you will be able to configure the field names manually.

   Thanks,
   Martin

   @Alec — Thing is, I have configured Yoast SEO Plugin such that some of the URLs have been stripped — archive pages URL, for instance — and deactivating this plugin might invent new issues which has had me worried.

   I’ll see if I can try FV Simpler SEO plugin this week. Sounds promising, Alec!

   Oh, and the FV Descriptions plugin doesn’t update the Meta Descriptions of Yoast SEO Plugin. Maybe it’s just me?

   @Martin — Thanks! I’m looking forward for the release of the updated version.

   Hi Sid,

   That's why no one in his or her right mind should use Yoast's Plugin as you are making your site dependent on a plugin. Plugins should retire gracefully and use core Wordpress tables as much as possible.

   Turning FV Simpler SEO on and off will not damage your site, unlike most of the other Wordpress SEO plugins out there.

   Hi Henry,

   That sounds like a Pro Support Incident. Let us know if you'd like our help sorting out your site.

   I've used the Yoast plugin on a number of sites and never had an issue. However, developers are building a site using the twenty-eleven theme and it is messing up the entire layout of the page. Anyone experience this? Any suggestions? At a loss as this is the first time I've seen this issue. Thanks in advance.

   Ryan, throw that piece of over engineered Yoast crap out and use FV Simpler SEO.

   That's why we coded FV Simpler SEO: so there is a powerful but safe SEO plugin out there with a beautiful interface and SEO preview.
