So I've been setting up a WordPress website at http://www.coffeetalk.com and today the tagline stopped appearing in the title. When I go to the Settings panel where you control the tagline, it's still there, but now it no longer displays on the website. Any suggestions on where to look to fix this are most welcome!

Did you change themes? Your new theme may simply not display your site's tagline.

Posted 8 months ago #Nope, theme's been the same since the beginning. I changed domains today which borked the site for a good while before I got it figured out. The strange thing is though the tagline was still displaying after I got everything fixed. It wasn't until hours later that it just suddenly disappeared.

Have you tried:
- deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
- switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
- resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

Posted 8 months ago #Just tried and reset cache afterward to make sure, but the tagline still doesn't want to show up in the title bar. It'll show elsewhere, but not up there.

Posted 8 months ago #I don't understand PHP but I do know that this is the line that controls the title (from header.php)
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> | <?php is_home() ? bloginfo('description') : wp_title(''); ?></title>
Is there anything I can do to sort of 'hardwire' the tagline in so it displays on the homepage (replaced by the page title on other pages)?

Posted 8 months ago #Yeah, I just tried that, then reset my browser cache afterward to make sure, like I said.

Can we see your site using Twenty Eleven?

Posted 8 months ago #Reloaded again and now it's showing up in Twenty Eleven so it looks like a theme issue and not a plugin. The previous theme was displaying the tagline earlier today though so I'm not certain what file I should look in to fix the issue.
