Yoast plug in - title settings
-
Hi,
I am using yoast plugin and having problems with title.
For example, my recent post http://www.soobumimphotography.com/bulverde-realtor-headshot/
It's showing as "Bulverde Realtor Headshot | San Antonio Headshot PhotographerSan Antonio Wedding Photography JournalSo basically, homepapge title is followed on every single page and post.
I would like Bulverde Realtor Headshot | San Antonio Headshot Photographer
Could you help with this?

I'm having a similar difficulty on my own site - the words "Philadelphia SEO Company" are being appended to end of every post, not pages, posts only.
- I've ticked "force rewrite titles" on the Yoast General tab.
- I'm using "%%title%% " in the title template for both pages and posts on the Post Types tab.
- I have not touched the header.php file.
Any ideas?
-
Here's how I've set up the plugin:
Under Yoast plugin settings: Titles & Metas > Check <label for="forcerewritetitle">Force rewrite titles</label>
Cautions: Any default title will be re-written by the plugin, I'm using this option because I'm optimizing titles & descriptions on all posts & pages.

This is only SEO plug in that I need to learn so it's worth spend sometime.
Thanks again

No problem, you must spend few hours to learn full potential of yoast plugin at the beginning it can be confusing. Good luck!

That was fix. Thank you so much

go to yoast seo > title & meta > under post title template set only title
may be your problem will resolved...

You have another title set in General Settings in Wordpress. That's why you have duplicated title.

Online shop - Long Titles & URLs acceptable?
Hi guys, We have this new online shop with over 1000 products (very technical products), synchronised with the SAP system of the company. So basically the page URLs are generated based on the following structure: Domain Name / Language / Product Category / Subcategory-1 / Subcategory-2 / Subcategory-3 / Product Name and Model Sometimes the URLs are over 130 characters length. Would this harm the shop's ranking, so should we really fix this, or it's something that can be ignored, having in mind the technical products in the shop? I would really appreciate your advice! Thanks!

Missing Titles?
Hi All, Don't know if anyone can help me but Moz is showing lots of errors for my website for not having title tags for pages when they do? Also when a user refines they search results it is seeing every instance of this as a new page - we have canonical tags across the site to stop this happening yet it is still occurring each time - is there anything else we can do to resolve this problem? It's creating lots of errors for us. Thanks, Laura

But why the results here.. can anyone explain what's happening? Thanks!! Here are some of the links that are listed with "title missing, empty".
