Browser tab titles

    It appears that the WP Security Audit Log plugin is affecting the titles in browser tabs. No title is being returned when the plugin is active. Deactivating it allows the page title to show. Here’s the code being used to generate the title tag:

    		<?php 

			if ( is_front_page() ) {
				echo '<title>' . get_bloginfo( 'name' ) . '</title>';
			} else {
				echo '<title>' . wp_title('', false, 'right') . '</title>';
			}
		
		?>

    We have multiple sites with the problem.

    Hello Kurt,

    That’s a first! Considering the plugin does not make any changes, really not expecting this. Do you have a test website where you can make some testing?

    For example did you try to change the theme and see if the problem persists?

    And all the sites which have this problem, do they all use the same theme?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Sorry. Forgot my basics. It is the theme. :/

    Thanks for your quick response.

    Gotta bring this one up again. I have a similar issue on sites that use wpSEO for title and meta handling. Titles are off (they’re being set but use wrong data).

    I tracked the issue down to version 2.5.5 of wpsal.
    2.5.4 and older are fine, but 2.5.5 breaks the title creation.
    There has to be something in 2.5.5 that impacts the title tag.

    If you need any help tracking this further down, hit me up.

    Hello Christophrado,

    The plugin does not do any sort of changes to any parts of the website, since it is a monitoring plugin. Having said that we are willing to look into this.

    How did you track down the issue to the plugin?

    Also, considering it is a first, how possible would it be to give us temporary access to the website or send us a backup so we can restore it and do some tests ourselves?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    I just tried deactivating one plugin at a time to track down the issue, and WPSAL was the one that actually was the source. So I just tried different versions of WPSAL after finding out that disabling it fixed my issue and knowing the issue had just come up in the last month or so.

    WPSAL 2.5.6 running – title fails
    WPSAL 2.5.6 deactivated – title is fine

    WPSAL 2.5.5 running – title fails
    WPSAL 2.5.5 deactivated – title is fine

    WPSAL 2.5.4 running – title is fine

    I didn’t change anything in between, so it’s clearly something introduced/changed in 2.5.5 that’s impacting the title.

    I’ll gladly send you access details to the staging site. Will use your contact form.
