# 2.0 Functionality Questions for Devs

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the 2.0 update & its new features! I do have some questions though…
 * Curious how the following relate in terms of functionality:
 * “Rewrite Titles” & “Use Original Title”
 * Seems as if there might be the potential for some sort of overlap here between
   these settings. For example, If Use Original Titles is selected, then would would
   occur if Rewrite Titles was also selected?
 * Also, while I can manage to write a few lines of code, I am not skilled enough
   to determine precisely how AIOSEO goes about tweaking & reporting server settings.
   Can you please shed some light on this? This is the area that I am having trouble
   moving past & have yet to update to 2.0. Been using your FREE plugin flawlessly
   for years on all sites, & very much appreciate it, but this sort of server interaction
   is hard to swallow, ya know?
 * Also, there have been a few posts here where users have reported issues, & a 
   plugin author has responded stating that such issues would be handled in an update.(
   ex: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/20-conflicts-with-easy-table-plugin-tables-empty](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/20-conflicts-with-easy-table-plugin-tables-empty))
   When might such an update be available?
 * Thanks so much for you plugin!

 * Craig,
 * First I should say the default settings for the plugin are essentially the same
   as they’ve always been; we’ve just been working on exposing more functionality
   and providing more control via a few additional options. Rewrite Titles controls
   whether or not All In One SEO Pack rewrites your title tag at all; if you disable
   this option then Use Original Title basically controls nothing. I realize this
   might not be clear from the UI because it’s in a different section; on the other
   hand, this is the sort of setting you shouldn’t need to be changing often.
 * Use Original Titles controls whether All In One SEO Pack gets the title from 
   WordPress and your theme by using wp_title() (Enabled) or makes its own decision
   as to what the original title should be (Disabled, the default setting). There’s
   also another setting under Performance called “Force Rewrites”. This defaults
   to enabled, which allows All in One SEO Pack to use output buffering to change
   the title that was output originally; this ensures that the title tag gets set
   properly. You can change it to Disabled if you have problems with this approach,
   and have a well-coded theme that sets the title like the following:
 * `<title><?php wp_title(); ?></tltle>`
 * As for the next update, we’re actively working on that and plan to release it
   soon after we are done with our testing.

 * Appreciate your reply Peter! It does help clarify a bit as well. The option to
   disable output buffering is great. Not sure it will work for me, but it’s nice
   to have 🙂
 * I couldn’t help but notice that you did not respond to my questions pertaining
   to the Performance section…? I hope you just overlooked it & would very much 
   appreciate a reply to my questions & concerns in regards to this, as it has prevented
   me from upgrading.
 * Thanks so much!

 * Craig,
 * Ah, I didn’t quite see that was what you were getting at. There are some basic
   defaults and options in Performance to allow you to adjust the PHP Memory Limit
   and Execution Time for WordPress; each has an option to use the system default,
   and the entire Performance module can be turned off in the Feature Manager as
   well.

 * Thanks, 🙂 but that I know. What I am wondering is, & to quote my earlier post:
 * _‘Also, while I can manage to write a few lines of code, I am not skilled enough
   to determine precisely how AIOSEO goes about tweaking & reporting server settings.
   Can you please shed some light on this?’_
 * In other words, AIOSEO now has the ability to impact my server settings, which
   makes me uncomfortable. Was hoping you could explain the hows & whys of this?
   Thanks sgain!!

 * Hi Craig,
 * All in One SEO Pack doesn’t modify server settings. What settings are you specifically
   referring to?
 * If you mean PHP Memory Limit and Execution Time for WordPress, those aren’t server
   settings, but are PHP adjustments used only within the scope of the plugin.

 * Hello Michael,
 * Thanks so much for replying! Forgive me if I am misunderstanding the new functionality
   of AIOSEO. I am in fact referring to PHP Memory Limit and Execution Time, & while
   I’m not a dev or server expert, these are server side settings. So, if AIOSEO
   has the ability to modify such settings, then it would in fact have server access
   in these regards, no? You said such settings are “_PHP adjustments used only 
   within the scope of the plugin”_. Not sure I understand as PHP memory & Exec 
   Time impact WP as a whole, not just the plugin. Not sure how exactly AIOSEO would
   modify these settings though…
 * BTW, just wanted to say that I appreciate your humble & dignified replies in 
   this forum. Not all SEO plugin devs present themselves in such a way. And based
   on my comment, you’re clearly better than I 😉

 * Craig,
 * These are settings in PHP that WordPress and other plugins have access to; it
   is possible to configure your server such that some of these settings can’t be
   overridden by PHP scripts, but to the extent that they can be, All in One SEO
   Pack tries to ensure that your pages will still load and you won’t run out of
   memory due to a misconfigured server, and gives you tools to help manage that
   more easily. See also [here](http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.sect.resource-limits)
   and [here](http://www.php.net/manual/en/info.configuration.php#ini.max-execution-time)
   for more information about this.

 * Hi Peter,
 * Thanks for the explanation. I was unfamiliar with adjusting PHP Memory Limit 
   and Execution Time in this way.
 * Appreciate your responses!

 * I don’t wanna continue “Blog title” after “page title”. I have did all the things
   which i can but i can’t get rid of this problem.
 * All in Seo Pack Settings:
 * Use Original Title: Enabled
    Rewrite Titles: Enabled Page Title Format: %page_title%
 * Site:
 * Header.php :
 *     ```
       <title><?php
       if ( is_home() || is_front_page() ) { bloginfo('name'); }
       elseif (is_page('') ) { single_post_title();}
       elseif (is_single('') ) { single_post_title();}
       else wp_title(''); ?></title>
       ```
   
 * Page.php :
 * `<h1 id="page"><?php the_title(); ?></h1>`
 * _[Please post code & markup between backticks or use the code button. Your posted
   code may now have been permanently damaged by the forum’s parser.]_
 * Please help me out, i am fed up of this problem.

 * zappyone,
 * What issue are you having, exactly? You can find the Force Rewrites option under
   Performance.

 * Figured it out. Make sure you check disable original title and then try it. If
   that doesnt work, deactivate plugin and then reactivate.
