    One social tag section per thread/page

    There's not too much point of having them on every single post, is it possible to add an option to do it by thread or post? I'd like to have it like devshed has their's:

    Thread-based options are already there. Click the link-back Drop down.

    Is it possible to remove the icons from every post and put them somewhere else though?

    If I remove them from each post and only keep them in the drop down then they're hidden away.

    Hello Nick,

    you can try to put this into your postbit template to hide the icons:
    HTML Code:
    <!--<!--VBSEO_BOOKMARKS-->-->

    If I put <!--VBSEO_BOOKMARKS--> in another template will VBSEO figure out that it doesn't need to put them postbit?

    vBSEO only checks postbit (or postbit_legacy) template to insert bookmarks.

    Is it not possible to check other templates for this code? Or even have an option of where to display the icons? vBSEO is all about helping to make the page better for search engines, but adding 125 extra bytes (for this thread at least) per post when it's not really needed is a bit silly. On a 40 post thread that's an extra 5KB of code.

    I have added
    Code:
    <div style="display: none;"><!--VBSEO_BOOKMARKS--></div>
    to the bottom of my postbit_legacy template, so the social bookmark links only appear in the LinkBack menu, I guess if you wanted them only on the first post you could use
    Code:
    <if condition="$post[postcount] == 1">
    <!--VBSEO_BOOKMARKS-->
    </if>
    in the postbit/postbit_legacy template, where you wanted them to appear. (I've not tested that)
