Permalink Help Needed

Hi Everyone.

Completed a website for a friend: http://www.meyersestates.com

Set up permalink structure to read Meyeres Estates | Subpages.

My problem is on the home page the permalink reads: | Meyersestates I would like to get rid of the | from the home page only, NOT subpages.

Have tried adding the following to themefunctions.php, but it didn’t work:

} elseif (is_home()) {
wp_title(”); echo ‘ ‘;

Any help really appreciated.

Thanks.
