    hmmm when i do this, it also appears on the front page though?

    It can be removed from the page’s header area. However, I’d suggest using something like “Faithful Charm” rather than the site’s url and entering a site description in Admin/Settings/General. It looks rather unprofessional in the browser tab as it stands.

    To remove the site’s title from the page header area, edit style.css and change:

    #header h1 a, #header h1 a:visited {
    color:#4D3F44;
    display:block;
    padding-left:30px;
    text-decoration:none;
    width:auto;
    }

    to

    #header h1 a, #header h1 a:visited {
    color:#4D3F44;
    display:block;
    padding-left:30px;
    text-decoration:none;
    width:auto;
    position:absolute;
    top:-5000px;
    left:-5000px;
    }

    ok thanks a lot, done that! still has the dash there….can i not change that?

    Yes you can. Drop of copy of your theme’s header.php file into the WordPress pastebin and post the pastebin url here.

    just a guess here, but line 9
    <title><?php if (is_home()) { bloginfo('description'); ?> &mdash; <?php } else { wp_title('',true); ?> &mdash; <?php } ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>

    the &mdash; business would be adding the dash I believe

    Dat’s the bunny.

    Amended header.php file in https://wordpress.pastebin.ca/1707232

    <title><?php if (is_home() || is_front_page() ) { bloginfo('name'); } else { wp_title('',true); ?> &mdash; <?php } ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>

    You should now just get your site name on the front page with the page/post title followed by the site name on underlying pages.
