BBpress has no functions for search engine optimization at the moment. This plugin will optimize your forum on the most important places. The plugin will rewrite your page titles and will add meta descriptions and meta tags. Furthermore the SEO plugin will add no-index information to the forums index pages to minimize the content duplication. The plugin is based on the idea of the All in One SEO Pack for Wordpress from Michael Torbert.
