URLs in Title Tags for WordPress Pages

    Our page URLs are showing up in the browser tab for our page meta titles. Why is that happening and how do we fix it?

    All of our WordPress pages are currently experiencing this issue. The other pages on our site are hosted and managed via Magento, so it’s a bit of a hybrid.

    Our original changes are still live in the back end of WordPress through the Yoast plugin.

    Is our title tag is inside the script tag? Should it be placed outside script tag? If yes, how do we do fix this and will we need to adjust every WP page individually or is it a setting that would be a blanket fix to all WP pages

    Thanks and kind regards.

    Your theme has not added the newer WordPress title tag and does not include the older option of a <title><?php wp_title(''); ?></title> meta tag in the theme files, typically the header.php file.

    Hi @amboutwe

    Thank you for your reply and taking a look.

    What would we specifically need to instruct a developer to do to fix this? How long should it take them?

    Do we need to add both the newer and the older WordPress title tag?

    Thanks again and kind regards,
    Nick

    Hi Nick,

    It should be a quick job for a developer. Unfortunately, we cannot provide you with instructions on how to do it, as this is not related to Yoast SEO, but part of WordPress itself. You don’t need to put the <title><?php wp_title(); ?></title> in your header.php file if you’ve added add_theme_support('title-tag') to your functions.php file.

    This page also contains an example for backward compatibility.
