Changing the title in the browser tab

    Hi I am having issues changing the browser tab title in a wordpress theme I am working on for someone. The link for the website is http://www.spclub.co.nz. I have changed the title to ‘Salt’ under the General tab, and in the profile, and it appears fine everywhere except for in the browser tab. I have checked the header php file and this is what it shows.

    <!– title –>
    <title> <?php wp_title(”); ?> <?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></title>

    I am a bit apprehensive to change this myself but if it will work I am happy to do so. But I would like to know where it is getting this information from so I can change it at it’s intended source. They are currently using the LemonChill Theme.

    I have cleared my cache etc to make sure I am not getting an old version showing up and checked in a different browser and it still seems to be not changing.

    Hoping someone can help point me in the right direction.

    The line you indicated, as written, would normally generate a title such as:

    ‘page or post title’ <space> ‘Site title listed on Settings → General‘.

    That said, this could be overwritten by a plugin (common in SEO plugins) or by the theme in some fashion. If you have reviewed the plugins and none control the <title> browser element value, then I recommend you contact the theme developer.

    As LemonChili (I assume you meant LemonChili as there is no LemonChill theme in the WordPress theme depository) appears to be a commercial theme, it would be best to post a support request in LemonChili’s forums, as most volunteers who try to help with the WordPress forums will not have access to commercial products. This approach also helps commercial developers better manage their product.
