Thanks for this but I think vBSEO does that already.

Define large scale. Regardless of the size of your forum, that doesn't change your SHOWTHREAD page. Forum size is irrelevant. However, if an additional 2 queries is of concern to you this result could still be achieved with a quick file edit which would add no additional queries.

I chose this method because a plugin is far more desireable than file edits. Your choice.

However, if you find different results as to the performance load incurred, I'd love to know. Unfortunately, I don't have the luxury of a large scale / uber-active forum to test on. :(

Does it? I'm a vBSEO license owner, and I couldn't find this option in the vBSEO Control Panel.

Either way, this is a free alternative for those not fortunate enough to be blessed with a vBSEO license. :P

* Edit: I checked the vBSEO forums, and indeed they are implenting this feature -- however, I'm unsure if it's a function of vBSEO or a completely separate hack they are using. I'm looking through my vBSEO Control Panel right now and I can't find an option for it.

Thanks. This option was long overdue.

I am getting greedy. Can't we have both, under navbar and bottom of post, and make under navbar display the same way as bottom of page?

Sure. Give me 10 minutes.

Ok, so I took a few minutes more than 10.. :)

Just updated v2.0. This will allow you to choose placement (Top, Bottom, Both) as well as tailor the layout to your liking via templates (nextprevtitle_bits).

I usually recommend to uninstall the product, then import the new version -- however, you should be fine by selecting "Allow Overwrite" when importing.

Enjoy.

thanks, i'll do it now

vBSEO Option:

Awesome. That'll teach me to read, eh? :P

There's just soooooo much stuff in the vBSEO Control Panel. I've only had it maybe 3 days -- I'm still trying to figure out all the ins and outs of it. :)

Thanks.
