assuming this is not on the actual site, but the title you see in the browser?
are you using a seo plugin for the meta titles?
what is the code of the meta title in header.php of your theme?
the line with:
<title> ????? </title>
https://codex.wordpress.org/Meta_Tags_in_WordPress
what theme are you using?
Your site looks fine to me at ‘http://munferitvakalar.com/’, if that is yours, but it does look like you might have the same info in ‘Site Title’ and ‘Tagline’ at Dashboard > Settings > General.
edit: Oops, please pardon me there, alchymyth. I did not know you had posted!
Yes, in the browser but, naturally, google indexs the website with this double name and searching for that keywords affected me negatively.
I’m not sure about seo plugin but I am using Supernova theme.
And this the meta title in header.php
<head>
<meta charset=”<?php bloginfo(‘charset’); ?>” />
<title><?php wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘right’ ); ?></title>
<meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width”>
<link rel=”profile” href=”http://gmpg.org/xfn/11″ />
<link rel=”pingback” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘pingback_url’); ?>”>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>

Edit:
leejosepho, yes it’s mine but tagline is empty? 🙂
@leejosepho
double-replies are better than no reply 🙂
you voiced a different view on the problem;
although if the meta title would show site title and tagline, I would expect there should be a divider between the two…
the site is based on the ‘supernova’ theme, which has a very normal meta title line in header.php;
the problem is likely been caused by the use of a plugin…
Ok, it seems logical but I tried to unactivate all of the plugins but the problem is still there 🙂
I think the problem could be solved very easily but I don’t know how.
I could see in your site that you use the plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpsso/
what are your entries there?
this also seems to output a double site title without spacing between the two site titles:
(from the code in the browser)
<!-- wpsso meta tags begin -->
<meta name="wpsso:comment" content="wpsso meta tags begin"/>
<meta name="generator" content="WPSSO 3.2G -UM"/>
<meta property="og:url" content="http://munferitvakalar.com/"/>
<meta property="og:title" content="Münferit VakalarMünferit Vakalar"/>
<meta property="og:locale" content="tr_TR"/>
<meta property="og:site_name" content="Münferit Vakalar"/>
<meta property="og:type" content="website"/>
<meta itemprop="name" content="Münferit VakalarMünferit Vakalar"/>
<meta itemprop="url" content="http://munferitvakalar.com/"/>
forget the reply above.
the problem comes from your theme ‘supernova’;
from a filter function for ‘wp_title’ in /wp-content/themes/supernova/lib/core/supernova.php
to remove that broken filter, add this to the bottom of functions.php of your theme:
remove_filter( 'wp_title', 'supernova_wp_title', 10, 2 );
possibly use a seo plugin for your meta titles (and descriptions).
(ideally do this in functions.php of a child theme; will need slightly adapted code; please post in https://wordpress.org/support/theme/supernova#postform and ask for details if you want to use a child theme)
It does really work alchymyht, thank you so much. I greet with respect! 😉
THANK YOU! I have spent the last two hours trying to find the answer to this problem. I wasn’t using the same theme, but I changed the ‘supernova_wp_title’ to what it was called in my file, ‘inkthemes_wp_title’ and it worked! Thanks again!
Supernova is an excellent looking theme, my only issues is the duplicate site titles which I cannot fix(I have tried all of the above and more). Also the ‘manage ads’ does not seem to be working. I have manually placed ads on my sight, so the script seems to be working, just not when posted into supernova > manage ads.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Sorry for coming late, been busy. Just for people looking answer for the same issue, I have fixed this in the new version which should be available soon. @jheard, if you have issues releated to “Manage Ads” section , please create a new support thread for it.
