You can reuse it, just try to uninstall and then install it again.
But as I menitoned before in #105 , you will need to write all translations from zero as well forgot/disable "Rewrite Friendly URLs" possibility in your forum...
can you be more precise? is it working with the last vbseo? if no there is a dead end because i'm not giving up using vbseo. also what translations are you reffering to? for the forum titles or ALL the translations from the forum.
It is working with vbseo as soon a you don't use in URL rewrites the names/titles of forums.
If forum names are translated with this mod they became unreachabe if in URL rewrite of VBSEO the Titles/names of forums are used.
and if now i'm reverting the link back to normal there is the chance to lose any relation with google search. like all the links which appear on google to now show/work any more?

I get an 'Invalid Language' response after translating my forum titles and saving them. What do you think could be responsible for this?
- if using things related to seo and link changing your links MUST be created not by name of the forum but by id!!!!
- if you have a forum named "Prieten" (romanian) and you are using as forum's languages english and romanian you have to go to Forum language manager (created by this plugin) and translate the forums name for both of the languages like this. go to english and name it Friend and also go to romanian and re-enter Prieten.
IF you are NOT doing all this your forum will give you a lot of errors. Translate the forums with the site offline so only you can see and the traffic is reduced to almost none.... Enjoy!!!
