June 22, 2008 Filed Under Wordpress SEO & Plugins
If this FAQ page does not answer your question, before you post a comment, please consider:
- What exactly is not working? The meta tags are not in the source? The page is completely blank? Please be as specific as possible.
- What is your PHP error log saying?
- Please specify the versions you are using: PHP, Wordpress, Platinum SEO Pack.
You are ofcourse free to leave appreciatory remarks and valid suggestions.Let us move on to the FAQs folks…
FAQs:
Does it work with Wordpress 2.3.x?
Yes it does work with earlier versions and it ofcourse works with wordpress 2.5.1. I always recommend you to update your wordpress blog to the latest version.There is no harm in upgrading.Wordpress is free buddy 
The plugin doesn’t seem to be working…
Test it with the default wordpress theme. If it works there, your theme is missing the appropriate call to wp_head() usually found in header.php. Please patch it, taking it from the default theme.If you don’t know how to do this, the following steps might work. Do them on your own risk:
- In your admin panel, go to Plugins - Theme Editor
- On the right bar, click on Header
- Locate the line with </head>
- Insert the following link before it:
<?php wp_head(); ?> - Save
If it still does not work, then your theme needs scrutiny. You can leave a comment on this page for any plugin issues, but please specify what exactly isn’t working, your WP version and if possible your PHP version.
After activating Platinum SEO Plugin I see two sets of meta tags
Disable All in One SEO Pack and enable Platinum SEO. This plugin gives you all the functionalities of All in One SEO Pack as it is, and gives you more cool options. Also ensure to edit your theme and remove whatever static meta descriptions and/or meta keywords you have in there. If it’s not your theme, you are probably using another plugin that is generating them. Disable that as well.
My URLs don’t get rewritten
Platinum SEO Pack doesn’t handle this, it’s already done by Wordpress itself. Visit Options - Permalinks to set it up. However Platinum SEO Pack gives you the option to rewrite titles.
How to get help on Platinum SEO options?
For help on any of the options, just click the option header.See pic. below:
How often will this be released?
A new release will be made only for bug fixes and for new features that may be essential from an SEO perspective.If you have any suggestion, do ping me.I will consider to implement them, only if you can convince me.
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted…What is that??
Platinum SEO, like its predecessor - All In One SEO, uses output buffering to rewrite the titles, for this to works it needs memory. There’s no way to optimize that much more, and on most hosting setups it just works which leads me to the conclusion that there are some companies who are just skimpy with memory. If the above error appears on admin pages, it’s not even output buffering related. I’d recommend switching to a host that can provide sufficient memory or disabling some plugins.

About the translation…
Where what translation is available?
If I want to translate this, where can I submit it for others to use it?

At least russian translation is here:

As far as PSP is rather new plugin, perhaps we have to search for its translation all over the Net for a while
Anna’s last blog post..Platinum SEO Pack
I’m using separate header files called header2.php and header3.php for a couple of categories to create their own local branding.
PSP inserts the keywords and descriptions to posts using those headers, but not the titles. Example:

Michael’s last blog post..Elephant shark reeled in
@Michael,
So you are using different header files for posts under two specific categories alone? While Platinum SEO works fine for posts under all other categories, title rewrites does not work for posts under these two categories.Isthat what you are saying?
are you using any title tags in those special header files? Is there any special reason for using those special header files? Is it for any other plugin?
Yes, there are separate header files for two categories. It’s for branding reasons. They are separate newspaper mastheads.
Yes, Platinum works fine for posts under all other categories, thanks.
I have empty title tags in the additional header files currently.
Michael’s last blog post..Great day out
Michael, i am not sure how I can test your specific case.But I will give it a try and let you know.but just give me some time as i am busy with my day work currently.i will get back to you on this before next week.
Is it possible for you to share your theme? Some very specific themes like yours are very difficult for me to test without having them.
Hello,
My individual pages don’t have titles, yet the titles are in the source code. I.e.: home/about/contact I thought I would see:
Jane Doe’s Blog/about Jane Doe’s Blog/contact but all I see is Jane Doe’s Blog. I’ve tried the options both with and without a home title….
Thanks
google webmaster tools tell me that my description is too much short (but in real your software was stoping to grab my description at the end of sentence, at dot and my real description is mro long). anyway I’m gone to add another new post with longer description but it look that seo platinum don’t see it and don’t change meta description, what I have to do?
Hi, I installed this plugin on three different blogs and it works fine on two of them. But it doesn’t work on the one with the copyblogger theme by Chris Pearson.
If you can help that would be great!
Very nice plugin. I’d been using All in One SEO plugin before this, and I have to admit, the Platinum SEO interface when editing posts is very user-friendly and convenient. Two questions for you though. Is there a way to “noarchive” all pages? I’d like to set that as a default, and it’d be nice not to have to go through and manually edit all the posts/pages. Also, I’m curious if there’s a way to “noindex” a specific category.
Unfortunately, the answer is no to all your questions.But if you do like, i can give you an SQL statement for updating all older posts/pages as Noarchive.You can execute that thro. you phpmyadmin.
and congratulations for being named the Top 7 photographers of 2008 in michigan
Hay thank you, i am new to wordpress and i will definitely try this cool plugin.
