Titles not showing properly in google

Hi @seasideman,

Hmm … that’s an interesting problem. I’ve looked at the source code of your site to check on the <title>. Those are displaying correctly within the HTML output.

What other plugins are you running? My approach would be to turn off any plugins relating to content and see if that addresses the issue. I suppose there will be some lag time before Google notices the changes.

It might also be worth searching through the database to see if you can locate from where those long numbers that display on the Google search results page.

Hi, thank you for your reply. not really using any other content plugins. This all started about a month ago. I have tried searching onlne to see if anyone else had come across this but i cannot find anything. even though it happened about a month ago, i am now finding articles from a year ago and longer are now changing the titles to numbers

Here’ some hint, but not solving your problem:

even when i post one of my articles on facebook it comes up with the numbers in the title, please see here

It may still be worth looking at the database for those numbers being displayed as page titles on Google search results.

It might also be worth following the directions on this page:
