I'm not finding it. I'm confident the problem is with BuddyPress. And I'm pretty sure I have the default BuddyPress install. It just flat out ignores the titles in SEO. (And who knows what else?)
Before I go any further down the rabbit hole modding BuddyPress to mimic what I want to do, is there a way to give SEO the higher authority?
Hi,
I have a similar problem. I am using multisite 3.1.1 without BuddyPress.
I want the subsite's sitename to show in the widget area.
dev-SEO 1.0.6 installed and activated but the code %%sitename%% shows instead of the sub site's name.
How do I fix? Should I be using a different code in the widget?

Hiya Christopher!
I have it working okay on a fresh install. I suspect another plugin is interfering with the title.
What else do you have activated?

I removed EVERY plugin and the only one that made any difference is BuddyPress. I guess I'll thrash around in there for a while.

Ah okay. If I remember correctly BuddyPress uses bp_title() to print out the title rather than wp_title().
I suspect then that this is a case of SEO not hooking into both of those so as soon as you use BP it overrides SEO.
Good news is that it's easily fixed so I'll pass this to the developer to get sorted!

@Christopher Someone will be along shortly to take a look at this for ya
@Ozpoker Take a look at this thread - I believe you may be missing wp_title from your theme

You can't use the codes in widget titles. Not sure where you got that idea. Only in the SEO settings or per page/post settings.
