Ya the duplicate content is too much of an issue with Google and they are very open to allowing an introductory para and link. Once this is amended, we will be all over this, as will a ton of websites that I know alone.

So i think i can do some of this pretty easily.

Tell me exactly how you think it should work.
What I'm thinking is an option that says "Use excerpt instead of full article text" when posting to vb.

Thoughts?

Yes that option should work fine and just include the first para or the first few lines with a '...' at the end.

After that, can the link be included in the vb post automatically?

for some reason i thought wordpress autogenerated the excerpt.... it doesn't seem to be doing that.
so this option wouldn't work for auto generated content....

but maybe there are other plugins that will deal with the auto excerpt part.

I can add an option to append the link though.

Alright. That's done. It's going up now.

I also fixed an issue with the comments not stripping slashes.

Thanks for the input!

It's up.

Enjoy.

What's the best way to install the update?

So I dont quite understand....will it generate a post with excerpt and link? Also, can I ask what type of title is rendered? Is it the same as the full article?

I tried to install it with vbulletin 4.2.2 and wordpress 3.7.1 - not working at all :(

Any updates on this?
