   Hello Friends,
   I am new to WP and I am badly stuck with Post Title and Page Title.

   I made my own custom theme where I am displaying "Page Title" using some graphics.

   <div class="content" role="main">
   <div class="pagename"><h1 class="entry-title"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h1></div>
   <?php if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
   <div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
   <h2 class="post-title"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h2>
   <div class="entry-content"> .........

   PROBLEM

   1. All the pages are displaying Title twice because the_title(); is also mentioned in Post.
   2. The Blog page "BLOG" when opened the page title is been replaced by the recent post title. I want the page title to display.

   I tried using wp_title in H1 it solves the problem but then the default static page displays nothing at Page Title. Please help me solve this problem, i worked really hard to built this theme.

   You need to put your titles inside the loop on the template. Therefore you need to replace:

   <h2 class="post-title"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h2>

   with whatever you want to use as your title - I guess something like this:

   <div class="pagename"><h1 class="entry-title"><span><?php the_title(); ?></span></h1></div>

   My posts are in a loop and that part is working fine i.e. whenever I add a new post it appears with its title.

   Here are 2 images to explain my problem

   Did you ever solve this one?

   The Blog page "BLOG" when opened the page title is been replaced by the recent post title. I want the page title to display.

   I'm having that problem too.
