Lets fix the seo for the forums?
First we will create 3 language key like this
forum_seo_title
Add you new forum title
forum_seo_description
add your own description, I have mine like

forum_seo_keywords
my keywords, WoWonder support community, WoWonder forums, script add-ons forum, PHP script customization help, free WoWonder tutorials, script hacks and tips, WoWonder troubleshooting, community for script developers, WoWonder help, popular scripts support
Now open sources/forum/forum.php
and replace all the code with
<?php
if ($wo['config']['forum_visibility'] == 1) {
if ($wo['loggedin'] == false) {
header("Location: " . Wo_SeoLink('index.php?link1=welcome'));
exit();
}
}
if ($wo['config']['forum'] == 0) {
header("Location: " . $wo['config']['site_url']);
exit();
}
$wo['description'] = $wo['lang']['forum_seo_description'];
$wo['keywords'] = $wo['lang']['forum_seo_keywords'];
$wo['page'] = 'forum';
$wo['active'] = 'forums';
$wo['sections'] = Wo_GetForumSec(array("forums" => true,"limit" => 300));
$wo['f-total'] = Wo_GetTotalForums();
$wo['title'] = $wo['lang']['forum_seo_title'] . ' | ' . $wo['config']['siteTitle'];
$wo['content'] = Wo_LoadPage('forum/forum');
Now lets add the title to the Threads
Open sources/forum/forum_showthread.php
and replace all the code with
<?php
if ($wo['config']['forum_visibility'] == 1) {
if ($wo['loggedin'] == false) {
header("Location: " . Wo_SeoLink('index.php?link1=welcome'));
exit();
}
}
if ($wo['config']['forum'] == 0) {
header("Location: " . $wo['config']['site_url']);
exit();
}
if (isset($_GET['tid']) && is_numeric($_GET['tid'])) {
$thread = Wo_GetForumThreads(array("id" => $_GET['tid'], "preview" => true));
if (count($thread) > 0) {
Wo_AddThreadView($_GET['tid']);
$wo['description'] = $wo['lang']['forum_seo_description'];
$wo['keywords'] = $wo['lang']['forum_seo_keywords'];
$wo['page'] = 'forum';
$wo['active'] = null;
$wo['thread'] = $thread[0];
$wo['forums'] = Wo_GetForums();
$wo['forumeditor'] = true;
$wo['title'] = $wo['thread']['headline'];
$wo['content'] = Wo_LoadPage('forum/showthread');
}
}
Now let add of:meta
Open themes/yourTheme/layout/container.phtml and look for
<?php if ($wo['page'] == 'forum') { ?>
<script src="<?php echo $wo['config']['theme_url'];?>/javascript/forum/script.master.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo $wo['config']['theme_url'];?>/javascript/forum/forum.ajax.js"></script>
After that add
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:image" content="<?php echo $wo['thread']['user_data']['avatar']?>" />
<meta property="og:title" content="<?php echo $wo['thread']['headline'];;?>" />
<meta property="og:description" content=" <?php echo ($wo['lang']['forum_seo_description'])?>" />
Clear you browser cache a few times, try posting on twitter or facebook to test.
The Threads will have the keywords and description of the form but the title is it's own so everytime you share a forum thread, lets say in facebook it will show te thread title
