I added the line of code, and it works! Thanks Sybre and lebaux for all your help.
When you release the next TSF version, should I delete that code from functions.php?
I’ve bought a premium sub to say thanks and support future dev.

Thanks for replying – I’ve tried all the steps again now, but no luck. I’ve sent you the URL.
I didn’t change anything after step 3 (i.e. the fix code is still in the child theme functions.php file).
The HTML <title> currently only contains the site name + the separator. The custom tagline and title do show, which I have set to “test 123” and “custom title test” respectively. (You’ll see it’s being outputted correctly in twitter:title.) Thanks in advance for looking at this.

I’ve received this reply on the X support forum. I’m not sure what to do now, except maybe check for settings in my theme that also impact the homepage title. If I can’t get a resolution, I’ll have to change to AIO SEO, annoyingly.

Thanks for writing in.What title you’re trying to implement? Our theme uses wp_title() in which part of WordPress standard. It’s where SEO plugin hooks any title related manipulation (the same with SEO Yoast). Hence, their plugin could do the same. Or maybe your site is behind the cache?
There should be no issues with the titles when it comes to our theme, it follows WordPress standard :slight_smile:
—Just to update you, I changed to a WordPress default theme and refreshed the homepage. The custom HTML title contents (which I set in SEO Framework) now output correctly. As you suggested, it looks like a theme-related issue. I’ve asked X Theme support why this specific functionality in TSF is not working. I’ll update here when I receive a response.
Also, I tried the solution suggested elsewhere by adding the following code in an x Child Theme functions.php, but that didn’t work either: add_filter( ‘the_seo_framework_force_title_fix’, ‘__return_true’ );
I forgot to add, I disabled the only extra plugin installed, and this didn’t affect anything. The only plugins currently present/active were the default WordPress plugins such as Akismet Anti-Spam, Hello Dolly etc, plus TSF.

Thanks for your response. Is the checkbox you’re referring to under the “Additions” tab, under Homepage Settings? If so, yes this is checked. I tested unchecking it now and deactivated the Extension plugin + refreshed the page, but no success.
To your question about empty titles, I already had content entered in this field:
Custom Home Page Title
On a side note, its content is published correctly to the Twitter title tag, but not the main <title>.
I understand you cannot support premium themes, and I will ask their support directly. However please note that based on what I have observed in their forums, they do not give support for plugins they did not create (understandably). Which kind of leaves me stuck between here and there. To help me get a response from their support, please can you at least explain here how TSF and the Extension-based fix work with WordPress homepage titles? If I can give this info, they might confirm if X Theme does/doesn’t cooperate with this, and I can update on findings here.
Hi, thanks for the explanation – this works fine.
