Podcast Title Not Displaying Properly

    Any ideas on how to get this podcast title to display correctly?

    If I leave the Feed Title (Show Title) blank, it displays with the site name and then the default title without a space (as it is now “WCCB Charlotte’s CWRiverdale Rewind – WCCB Charlotte’s CW”).

    If I fill in the Feed Title to override the default, it displays twice, also without a space (e.g. “Riverdale RewindRiverdale Rewind”).

    I have checked “Do not allow other plugins to modify podcast feeds” as detailed in this post but it’s had no effect: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/remove-sitename-from-itunes-podcast-title/

    This is a category based podcast but outside of that, I don’t think I have anything set of note.

    Any ideas? Thanks.

    The “– WCCB Charlotte’s CW” that’s being appended to your show title is most likely coming from your WordPress theme. Sometimes, theme developers put this kinda thing in the Appearance settings of their themes. You may want to check there and see if there’s a way to turn it off.

    An easy way to test if the theme is causing the issue would be to temporarily switch to a WordPress default theme like the 2017 theme and then load your podcast feed URL here:
    https://www.wccbcharlotte.com/category/rising/just-jess/riverdale-rewind/feed/

    In a web browser like Google Chrome. Once the feed loads, do Edit >> Search for <title> to see if the feed is showing the correct title without the extra stuff appended to the end. If the correct title shows, then you should contact the developer of your WordPress theme for support.
