Hey all!
Quick question; one that is probably easy for you techies!
Right now, the title of my blog stays the same. No matter what page I visit on my WordPress blog, the title is the same.
How do I leave the blog title, but add the post title before it?
Hopefully somebody can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance!

Try installing this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/
I think that will do what you want. :)

Optimal Title (http://elasticdog.com/2004/09/optimal-title/) works good too.

Seo Title Tag (http://www.netconcepts.com/seo-title-tag-plugin/) is the best :)

I use the Optimal Title as mentioned above in all my blogs. It works well.

I have ran into a roadblock with the Optimal Title plugin. I think this is my best bet, but I am stumped. Here is what I have done. Any help would be great!
1. Downloaded the plugin
2. Activated it from my WP admin area
3. In my header.php from my WP admin area, I swapped out
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> ยป Blog
Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
and added
<title><?php optimal_title(); ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
Unfortunately, I am still getting the same page title. Is there something I could be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

hmm....
That's pretty much the same as I use except I have a seperator of a | in mine. Here's what I use:
<title><?php optimal_title(' | '); ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
Hope that helps

I can't help you with installing that plugin, but I can tell you that the plugin I suggested does not require any editing of files.
