Yoast SEO for Buddypress

[knt]

I just want to know if Yoast SEO or WordPress SEO by Yoast works on this theme?

[knt]

@abe are you there? Need your answer or anyone?

[sharmstr]

Lots of us use WordPress SEO by Yoast . Even the demo site does.

Hi @sharmstr, i tried installing and activiting it. But it doesn’t seem to change the <title>. Maybe you could help me set it up?

[sharmstr]

Works fine on all my sites. Perhaps its a caching issue?

Thanks for your answer @sharmstr, i don’t have w3 total cache installed yet. Also if it helps to know, i’m developing locally using WAMP.

[sharmstr]

Look for plugin conflicts. Search the SEO forum. I’ve tested on my WAMP install and as I’ve said, it works fine.

hmm, maybe there are some codes that i need to add to functions.php to make it work for buddypress? Or some other configurations that i’ve missed @sharmstr?

[sharmstr]

Ahhh. So custom titles aren’t working for BP pages, right? I know you mentioned bp in the topic title, but once I scroll past it, I forgot. Sorry. Anyhow, that seems to be a know issue. Google it and you’ll see:

Thanks @sharmstar, i configured Yoast SEO > Titles & Metas > Title Separator to “-” Still doesn’t work

[sharmstr]

I didnt say I found a solution. I said its a known issue. I provided a few of the many links I found about this issue.

I’m sorry to have wasted your time. To answer your initial question… No, it appears it doesnt work, but not because of Kleo issue. It doesn’t work with the WP 2015 Theme either.

No need to say sorry @sharmstr, i’m thankful that someone is helping me out. So don’t say sorry, because i really appreciate your help.

So what are you using SEO plugin are you using for buddypress + kleo now? I tried modifying the members page under Pages, editing the SEO Title and Meta Description, but no luck. Any thoughts?

[sharmstr]

I dont have a need to edit the title, so I’m using Yoast. But again, I think its a BP issue. Google it 🙂

Okay @sharmstr, thank you very much for your inputs. I have another question. Should i create a new topic or just post it here?

[sharmstr]

new topic please. I’ll probably end up answering it, but since you’re changing subjects I’d prefer a new topic.
