Changing Post Title in WP (For Google Searches) - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

YoCrunch · 06-23-2010, 06:48 PM

When I search for a page on my website in google it comes up in the following format for the title - SITE TITLE :: CATEGORY :: POST TITLE

How do I get it to just show the post title in google searches?

Found out a Feature in my plug-in that helps out with it, but if anyone knows the default way to do it please share

Whatever you've got in the <title> tags on your post is what comes up in google. Without looking at the theme you're using I can't say exactly how to change this, but it can be done by editing the code in the header page

Hmmm, try playing with your permalinks as well...

As someone already said, that's done in the theme. I prefer Post Title - category, tag1, tag2, etc... Personally, I don't like plugins like all in one, themes should do it right in the first place.
