   Hello,

   So I just created a new post at http://www.distinctnews.com/ and it's called 11:11:11:11 So now my website title changed from Distinct News to my latest post!

   Any idea how to change that?

   God, how many problems do you have? :P btw I would recommend you back up your files and original theme in case something is messed up :)

   So any solutions? This keeps happening every time I post a post.

   Is there like a code missing? If yes, what is it please?

   Thanks!

   I don't even know what an SEO plugin is XD I'm using plugin to post posts to Twitter, another for comments and a third for contact forms, Facebook Share, Twitter Share, Google Buzz sharing. That's all.

   Isn't there like a code that I could put in the header or something?

   You have a pile of validation errors, they should be fixed.

   Try disabling ALL your plug-in's - rename your plug-in directory and make an empty plug-in directory - you need to see what is causing the problem by turning things off - also go back to the default theme if required. Sometimes a plug-in will remain active even when it has been disabled in the Dashboard.

   Once you get the problem to go away - turn on the plug-in's one at a time until you find out which one is giving problems.

   W3 Validator will not fix anything - it only lists errors it finds. Your job to fix the errors.

    A standard installation of mystique theme doesn't overwrite the_title. So I'm guessing something overwrite it. Plugin perhaps. That's why I'm asking whether u use any sort of plugin (most likely _SEO_ plugin). Like Saildude said, try disabling all ur plugin for a moment and see.

    I disabled all the plugins and none worked.

    So I also took out the html and css that I added to make the very top menu bar, and it's not it. (because I had a backup of the origianl) The problem was still there.

    So it isn't plugin and it isn't the code I added.

    Anything else? :)

    Try contacting mystique theme author, he or she knows better about theme. Perhaps updating to latest would help: http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/mystique

    btw, does the same thing happening if u switch to other theme? e.g default or classic?

    already tried that. and i also looked at the comments ppl posted but nothing

    if i go back to default, the title of the blog goes to normal Distinct News and not the latest post

    so there has to be something missing in mystique on my end...

    Try this. Go to Settings > Reading > Front page displays: and tick Your latest posts.

    Nope. It's already selected.

    Odd, I guess you have to edit theme's header.php and change mystique_title() to a standard wp_title(). see: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_title

    Unless anyone else knows what's happening.

    Thanks for the link!! It helped a lot.

    I pasted
    

    <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>

    into the header and it worked.

    Thanks again :D
