    Hi,

    Page title of Blog main page is added at the end of blog post page title! I need to remove page title of main blog page of each blog post(, since it's duplicate content + creates a very long page title).

    For better understanding:
    - See also attached screenshot with explanation!
    - URL: https://www.lottosend.com/blog/
    - Current plug-in for meta tags: "Add Meta Tags" / George Notaris.

    Thanks!
    Mike

    Hi Michel,,, if you want change page title, you should edit php file on your wordpress directory ( exactly "header.php" )

    edit header.php with notepad, and change <title><?php blablabla php code</title> with

    <title><?php wp_title(''); ?><?php if(wp_title('', false)) { echo ' -'; } ?> <?php if(is_home()) bloginfo('name'); ?></title>

    If you are using Yoast seo plugin, please take a look at the settings there. A wrong setting can have a title like yours as a result :)

    Settings do come into factor when preventing these types of bugs!
