    Readme issue

    In the readme is written:

    1. CHMOD 666 the 'vB-root/includes/config_vbseo.php' file.
    2. Using your browser, visit: http://www.yoursite.com/vB-root/vbseocp.php.
    3. Define a password for your vBSEO Control Panel by entering it twice in the fields provided, you will be redirected to the settings page.
    4. Copy/Paste your current key: 32_digit_key_in_red into the license key field provided:
      1. Please make sure that your forums URL in vBulletin AdminCP option is specified correctly.
      2. If all settings are specified correctly and your license key does still not turn green (after saving settings), please open a support ticket.

    5. Click on the 'Browse' button within the 'Upload a Settings (.xml) File' box.
    6. Upload your previously saved vbseo_all.xml settings file.
    7. For security purposes CHMOD 644 your 'config_vbseo.php' file after completing the steps above.

    But if I upload the old settings also the old key is inserted.
    So I would change the point.

    4. should be 6. and 5. should be number 4. and 6. => 5.

    Steps 5&6 are very rarely needed. The settings should be saved and pulled from the vB datastore.

    Was just searching for a bug to see if this had already been reported. I was looking for this file for ages, banging my head against the wall and everything... The new vBSEO ACP warning message points towards this file also. Should probably be updated to prevent wasted man hours lol.
