How to update your installation of YABBSEO v1.0.1:
Untill now, you only need redownload the attachment to update the php scripts files and then reimporting the product XML file. BUT you must be careful if you have modified the file yabbseo/data/config.php. When you upload new scripts, please don't overwrite your customised config.php. And a backup of old installation is recommended when you make any updates on current installation.

Some previous installation may not include such TAG parsings in yabbseo/data/config.php, if yes, you need add them manually(suppose you don't want to overwrite config.php directly)
PHP Code:
'import' =>
    array (
      
=> '\\@',
      
=> 'url',
      
=> '\\(',
      
=> '\\"',
      
=> '1',
    ),
    
'image:' =>
    array (
      
=> 'background\\-',
      
=> 'url',
      
=> '\\(',
      
=> '\\>',
      
=> '1',
    ), 
The previous installation miss a hook called "Search members" at Plugins & Products>Plugin Manager, if you don't want to reimport the product XML file, you can add this hook as follows:
