Missing checkbox option?

when editing a post or posting a new topic, there's a set of four checkboxes below the text entry field. however.... one of them doesn't have any text associated with it, so i'd have no way of knowing what it does. looking at the source, i see this:
Code:
<label for="qr_retrtitle"><input type="checkbox" name="vbseo_retrtitle" value="1" id="qr_retrtitle"  checked/></label>

As I was going down the stair, I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today; I wish I wish he'd go away.

It appears to be related to the vBSEO module. I'm checking into it now.

Thanks for reporting this -- don't know how I missed that!

Ok, this is fixed. The label is "Automatically retrieve titles from external links" and if you put in a a URL, it retrieves the page title and displays that instead. Neat, eh?

heh, i had noticed that happening, didn't know why. didn't realize it was an option to have it do that.

good to know it's fixed, though.

Personally, I find it rather annoying. For some sites I've linked to in the past, the title of the page has been way longer than the URL, so the post doesn't look or read properly. Plus, I'd rather know the web address then the title of the page when I'm clicking on it. I dunno, it's just a preference thing, but I wish it were off by default (or settable in your profile to be off by default).
