Meta Titles and Genesis Framework

Hello! First let me say thanks for a refreshing plugin. Straight to the point without extra “fluff”. The recent addition of editing META tags in Quick Edit is superb.

I primarily use the Genesis framework and my understanding is that META titles should be automatically generated and displayed as (from Slim SEO docs page):

• For homepage: Site title – Site description
• For singular pages/posts: Page/Post title – Site title
• For other pages: Page title – Site title

In testing the plugin using Genesis with the Sample child theme, I only see this format on the home/front page. Interior pages only display their respective Page titles (i.e. Site Titles do not appear in META titles).

I can get around this by manually editing META titles, but was hoping this would happen automatically.

I tried using the “manually edited” filter provided from this topic – but no luck.

I was, however, able to extend the filter referenced above using standard WP functions. However, I think this may not be the “Slim SEO way” to do this.

Is there anything specific that needs to be done with Genesis to have the correct META title formatting? For instance, I disabled Genesis SEO with the following – again, no luck:

add_action( ‘genesis_init’, ‘genesis_disable_seo’, 99 );

Thank you again for a wonderful plugin and any suggestions you may have!
