It seemed good in theory, but this plug-in often causes 2 instances of the content block text area to show up when editing a post or page, especially when toggling from Text view to Visual view. Both the visual and text views show up at once. It you try to push through it, content is often lost on save. It seemed useful in theory, maybe i’ll check back with the plug-in when it updates to see if that glitch still happens.

WoW, its cool wordpress plugin helps a lot in on page seo for my site have tested and works smart. Every time need to append @ character before to link old articles. Will you please add option if the word matches with existing post title will automatically link to the old url to make it as cornerstone content?
