We're pleased to announce the release of 4SEF version 0.9.0. This is a feature and maintenance release with multiple improvements and fixes!
IMPORTANT: 4SEF is still in beta testing phase. This means it's in the final stages of testing and should be used only with caution as some bugs may happen when used in the real world. Beta testing is meant to identify these issues that cannot be discovered during develoment and internal testing.
We recommend using it on test copies of your website only. If you decide to test on your real website, make sure you have a backup on hand so that you can restore things to their previous state in case something goes wrong.
Here are the highlights:
Import resume function does not work if import is started again right away, or is cancelled, without reloading the page.
Rss and Atom feeds should not be imported as they are now dynamically generated
