HeadSpace2 3.2 - Modules, importers, and mass-editing
This is a biggie so I'll try and not write too much. HeadSpace is now running at version 3.2 and has had a thorough overhaul and feature boost that is designed to push it past other meta-data plugins. This includes:
- Modularization - everything is now a module and can be enabled or disabled and re-ordered. You can decide exactly what meta-data you are interested in and how it should look
- Site modules that affect the whole site and add Google Analytics, Mint, StatCounter, Crazy Egg, and more
- Much better tagging, with a smart auto-suggestion that matches similar words
- New modules for custom 'more tags' and no-index capability
- Mass-editing mode that allows you to edit all your meta-data from one page
- Importers - now you can easily import data from other meta-data plugins directly into HeadSpace. This includes UTW, SEO Title Tags, and All-in-one SEO
Phew!

Hi,
how do I update headspace? Just upload the new version and overwrite the old one? Won't my existing headspace data be affected?
Thanks,
Ben

Just upload the new version. Your settings are stored in the database and will be retained

I'm staggered at the amount of work you've obviously put into HeadSpace2, John. Thanks for going to all the trouble, and for offering this plugin to the world for free.
I've run into a snag trying to add tags to my posts in the mass edit interface. First, the same post appears at least a hundred times - it's just repeated. Second, I get a message 'you are not allowed access to this resource'.
FYI, I'm still on WP 2.2 and I'm not running any competing SEO plugins (SEO all in one, etc).
Any illumination appreciated!

Thanks John! Mass editing works just fine in the new version, though I should add that it crashed my site until I upgraded to WP 2.3x. No worries, there, I wanted to upgrade anyway, but this just gave me the extra push.
I like the 'suggest tags based on content' feature in the post edit window, however it doesn't seem to work very often for me. I'm having more luck with the Yahoo option. Maybe the issue is that my posts are rather short, and I don't have too many tags defined on my site yet.
Whatever the case, I remain a fan. I'm also working with your 'redirection' plugin.

The suggest tags feature works by using your existing tags. If no existing tags match in a post then nothing will be suggested. The idea is that over time you will build up a set of tags that suit your site, and the suggest feature will then be able to suggest appropriate tags.
