Problems with webpage Titles

  • Right now, if you were to click on an entry, the title at the tip-top of the page is:

    “Blog Title >> Blog Archives >> Title of Entry”

    I want to change it to simply:

    “Title of Entry”

    However, when I edit the code, it always leave the “>>” arrows in the title.

    Anybody know how to take out those darn arrows?

  • Offhand, I’d say search through the files for all instances of » to see where they exist, and see if you can figure out from there which one’s the one you don’t want….

    Heh – y’know, until you asked about it just now, I’d never even noticed that it did that! Hmmm.

    One thread dealing with this issue:

    Actually, that thread was very unclear as to whether it solved the problem or not.

    Anybody dealt with this before?

    Anybody?

    Okay, at the top of the header.php file you’ll see a line like this: <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> &raquo; Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>.

    Change it to this: <title><?php wp_title(); ?></title>.

    There’s still a &raquo; at the left, but the browser title bar now just shows the post title.

    However, that won’t show a blog title on the main page…. there’s probably an “if” statement to do that, but I’m not particularly good at stuff like that….
