I have checked the keywords on my SHOWTHREAD pages and i noticed that it contains the title of the thread before listing the keywords. I want to remove the thread title from here, how can I do this?

In the headinclude template, find this line and remove the threadinfo[title] from the line:

<if condition="$show['threadinfo']">
<meta name="keywords" content="<if condition="$threadinfo['taglist']">$threadinfo[taglist], </if>$threadinfo[prefix_plain_html] $threadinfo[title], $vboptions[keywords]" />

I removed that from headinclude but the thread title still appears in the keywords list of the thread page.

This is what the top of my headinclude says:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=$stylevar[charset]" />
<meta name="generator" content="vBulletin $vboptions[templateversion]" />
<!-- google_ad_section_start --><meta name="keywords" content="$vboptions[keywords]" /><meta name="description" content="$vboptions[description]" /><!-- google_ad_section_end -->

I just noticed that what is added to the keywords list is keywords relating to the thread title, not the whole thread title itself. But I don't want those extra keywords in there.

Maybe this is done by vBSEO, because I have that installed too.
