    How do I administer vbSEO?

    I did see a reference to http://www.domain.com/vBroot/vbseocp.php, but the reference said to keep it write protected when it isn't being used. Changing permissions on a Windows server isn't as simple as chmod, so I'm hoping there's another way to administer vbSEO?

    Some programs allow for administration from with the vbulletin control panel, but I didn't see anything there.

    You need to make config_vbseo.php writeable. It's located in your includes directory.

    Then, you will be able to use the interface you listed above to change the vBSEO options.

    Thank you. Is that the only way? I'm not the person who will be doing the administration, but the person who will can't change write permissions. Unlike the other vb programs I've installed for him, this is one he'll probably be working on, on a consistent basis. SEO is like that. So is there another option?

    No, this is the only option. But, once you get your settings in place, you shouldn't be changing them anyway. vBSEO is mostly a "set it and forget it" application.

    Though, many people just leave the config file writeable anyway, which would allow you to administer it anytime you like.
