= I can't get the plugin to change anything on the site? =
If you're not seeing any new titles or meta data on the website, the installation requires editing of your theme's `header.php` file. Please carefully read and follow the installation instructions.
= What are the fields in settings for? =
* In WP-Admin, Navigate to *“Settings” > “Search Engine Optimization”*
* **Site Defaults** are your main tags for the site: if undefined the system will use the sites name + tagline
* **Title Formats** are the different ways your title tag can be formatted; you can specify which types of separators (“/”, “~”, “-”) and which types of pages get which titles/descriptions using available %macros%
* **Options** setup the different post types you’d like the rewriting to occur on and if you'd like keywords to be generated from the
= I’m using Thematic & there’s no header.php in my child theme?! =
The talent at Thematic have made it easy to overwrite most tags, so instead put this line in your child-theme’s functions.php file:
`function childtheme_override_doctitle() { if (function_exists('roi_seo')) roi_seo(); }`
= What placeholder %macros% can I use for each page type format? =

* **Pages** - %page_title%, %author%
* **Category** - %category_title%, %category_description%
* **Archives** - %date%

= What does "Use Dynamic SEO Tags for" mean? =
When selected for post type(s): the metabox allowing custom tag values is added to that posts types edit screen. (see screenshot-1.png). If not set, that post will not have the options for custom tag values and will revert to default values.
= What does "Generate Posts Keywords" mean? =
If selected for "[x] From Tags" or "[x] From Categories", that post's keywords will be created by taking the first 3x tags and/or categories assigned to that post. i.e.: if selected for tags and categories, and a blog post was filed in "Tutorials" with the tags: "PHP" and "CSS", the keyword tag would be <meta name="keywords" value="tutorials, php, css" />
Please note that meta keywords are on obsolete tag, no longer proven to increase search ranking- but we still include it in the plugin.
