Another title bar problem

On the homepage here is the Title

“Branson condos and Branson resorts for nightly rental on Table Rock Lake”

Now, simply roll your mouse over any of the tabs – doesn’t matter which one and they will all come up with the same as above.

Here is an example. Click on Helpful Information. If you are in IE roll your mouse over the tab. You will see exactly this:

“Branson condos and Branson resorts for nightly rental on Table Rock Lake”

Same is true if you do it with Chrome and I would guess Firefox.

I have made the change to the AIOT plugin page to only show the %page_title% but that didn’t help either.

Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike,

Can you provide the URL for the site.

Make sure you have set the title for the homepage by going to All in One SEO, General Settings, Home Page Settings (http://semperplugins.com/documentation/home-page-settings/).

The URL is http://huntersfriendresort.com/

I am looking into your suggestions.

Thanks, Mike

BTW I think you are missing part of my issue. The title for the homepage is not the issue. The issue is that the homepage title is on every page I have, whether it is for Silver Dollar City, General Information, Rooms and Rates, etc. All pages have the same title for the page “Branson Condos and Branson Resorts…..”

I want to get each of them to be unique.

Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike,

It looks like there is something wrong with the code in your theme and that’s what the same title is being output on every page. Check the header.php file in your theme and make sure that wp_head() and wp_title() are both declared only once and are declared correctly. Compare the code to the same code found in the Twenty Fifteen theme to see how it should look.

Hello again,

Okay, I went through the header.php and came across this

<?wp_head();?>

I don’t have a wp_title at all.

You’ll need to add wp_title(), its a required hook in WordPress – http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/wp_title

Soooo… don’t suppose you have a preference where I should add this do you? Also, what about the interior pages?

You should add this in the header.php file of your theme below the opening HEAD tag.

So I added as your instruction (I pretty much guessed as much it’s location) made a change to a page and still got this.

I can’t seem to shake the title replicating for every single page

This is probably your theme overriding the Title tag we output. It looks like your theme has some SEO features built in, I see additional duplicate SEO meta in the source code of your site that is probably coming from the theme.

Try these settings and see if they help –

http://semperplugins.com/documentation/performance-settings/#force-rewrites – Set this to Enabled
http://semperplugins.com/documentation/general-settings/#use-original-title – Set this to Disabled

If that doesn’t work then contact the developer of the theme and ask them if they have any SEO in the theme and if it can be disabled/removed. Also ask them if they are using Output Buffering and if that can be disabled/removed.

The developer went out of business probably 4 years ago and is no longer available, so that is a scratch….

Did you try those two settings?

Yes I did. Unfortunately same issue.

BTW, I had to take wp_title back out as it was completely throwing off my pages with double placement of graphics and so on. Not sure what that was about but once I removed it, it went back to the same as before.

I think it’s safe to say this is a theme issue. I would guess that if you switched the theme to Twenty Fifteen and checked then All in One SEO Pack would be working fine.

wp_title() is an essential hook that should be in the header.php of any WordPress theme. This is the hook that All in One SEO Pack and other plugins use to display the Title tag. Without it, our plugin and other can’t output a Title tag. The fact that adding this hook into your theme breaks your site is a problem, and as there is no support for the theme any more I think you’re stuck with the fact that All in One SEO Pack can’t output the Title tag.

If you’d like to send me your WordPress administrator login via the contact form here http://semperplugins.com/contact/ then we can take a closer look and see if there is a workaround.

Thanks – I just sent it over to you.

Also have TeamViewer as an option if necessary.

Fun to have a hard problem isn’t it?
