  • What you’ve got there is wrong in two parts – the <p> tags and the <h1> tag.

    But… this is assuming that this is the entire string, and not jsut part of it that you’ve cut out as that wudl make a very big difference.

    This needs to start with <p> and end with </p>

    The <h1> tag should not be inside a <p> tag.

    I have never seen Yoast re-write anything like that, so just from that for me I wouldn’t think that it’s Yoast that’s doing it.

    Do you have a link to a page so we can see that for ourselves?

    Also, you may want to consider updating your WP.

    The current version 4.6.1 is a security and maintenance release for all previous versions.

    <div id=”about-us”></div><h1>About Us:</h1>………..this?

    <p><div id=”about-us”></div></p>
    <h1>About Us:</h1>

    or this?

    That’s… really something that I wasn’t expecting. From the source code it looks like your theme is doing some strange things with the page titles. I’d start there, and work back.

    I highly dougt that Yoast is doing anything with that because Yoast doesn’t make any modifications to the page titles anywhere, but if you think that could be an isue, remove it and see if that changes things back to how they were before.

    See the word yoast in there? Yoast wrote over my code. All I need is the code for About Us: I just have the code in the wrong positions.

    I do not believe that Yoast did that. I use Yoast on every site that I’ve made, and I have never seen this… ever.

    Having said that, did you delete the Yoast plugin? If that is what’s causing the problem, then remove it and the problem will stop.

    I deleted the yoast plugin.

    &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div id=”about-us”&amp;gt; &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&amp;lt;h1&amp;gt;About Us:&amp;lt;/h1&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;

    This is the code i’m trying to decipher. You can see the about us in there. I think everywhere there is an & there should be a < or >. If so the code should look like this: </p><div id=”about-us”></div><h1>About Us:</h1><p>

    Can you help me with the correct code?

    The “correct” code is just as you’ve got it on here.

    </p><div id=”about-us”></div><h1>About Us:</h1><p>

    BUT, that’s not correct HTML code, and it should not ever be part of your title. There is something very very very wrong going on either in your theme or the way that you’re entering your page titles.

    If you are entering your titles as plain text (eg: ‘About Us’) then your theme is doing soemthing very bad with them, and you’ll need to contact the themes author or vender for support on that. If you are entering the title using the HTML code that you’re uisng above, then you are realyl doing it the wrong way and you should only be using the the plain text and not the rest.

    <div id=”about-us”></div>
    <h1>About Us:</h1>

    This is the correct code. Thank you.

    My webmaster logged on remotely and reset the code to two weeks ago.
