I had been reading lots of people using xthreads and I also wanted to try it.
It is a very useful, powerful tool and many thanks to the author of this plugin.

I had a doubt, the thread description that we use with xthreads, can by any means, we can make it the meta description of that thread too?
I mean to say, while creating a thread, and thread description enabled for it,
what is needed to do so that the thread description also becomes the meta description.

I think that maybe some changes are required to be done in the templates, but where, that I cant figure out.

looking for any pointers that might solve this issue for me.

Also, If I am using google seo plugin, will it interfere in any manner with xthreads?

I think you can add it to your template_prefix_showthread template.

ok
thanks for your reply

but if you can just tell  what code to add, where, it would be quite helpful.
I am still trying to learn it, and cant really figure it out.

you mean
pf_showthread template that I added in global templates?

what code to add where, if you can guide me, it would be quite helpful.

You add the meta tag that you want in the appropriate location.  Please review your HTML knowledge if you are having difficulties with this.
