Unique meta descriptions improved
New thread notification
Contextual ad insertion

I think that's about it. Once phpBB3.0 is out, this forum will eventually upgrade from phpBB2.0.x to phpBB3.0. Same mods will probably be installed.

Can you insert the metatags manually? Ive always found it hard to SEO a forum because I have no meta control.

Unless you tweak the database, you cannot manually create a meta description. However, the referenced "unique meta descriptions improved" mod automatically creates a unique meta description for each page. I think this is pretty useful. I can't imagine manually creating meta description for all forum threads.

Actually, I was an anti-Able2Know and meta tag mods so I had to make 'em up myself, and didn't require any DB changing. In the overall header.tpl, under the {meta}, put up a <meta name="description" content="{PAGE_TITLE}" /> and in the i.e viewtopics.php, change the $page_title into the $topic_title only Very Happy.

LOL, this makes no sense right now, but I actually managed to do pretty well SEOing a phpBB forum myself..
