    Do you mean from the url of the post?

    From the title. If you open that page and look at the title, you will see ” – ” at the end of it. The same will be visible in Google search results.

    You’ll probably need to modify the header.php file within a Child Theme.

    Can you please be more specific? I can’t figure out which part of the header do I need to change to remove the “-” after the title of the post.

    The title is generated here <title><?php wp_title(''); ?></title>

    More information on how to use this function wp_title

    Since you are not using the dash as a separator in the call to wp_title and since the site title shows up after the dash on other pages, just not your blog, check your theme or plugins to see if anything is filtering the title and adding the dash but not adding (or maybe removing) the blogname on your posts, resulting in <post title> – <nothing>.

    Might look for an if/else that checks for is_single()

    Thank you samateo,

    It was Yoast plugin. I had to change:

    %%title%% %%page%% %%sep%%

    to

    %%title%% %%page%%
