Clear your browser’s history and delete and temporary internet files.
Thank you, but that didn’t change it, unfortunately. Still seeing favicon and url in the tab. Is there anything else I can try?
Apparently the plugin deleted your blog’s title you need to look in your options under General and make sure that your title is still there.
I did that. The title is still there. I even deleted it and re-entered it just in case that might have done something. Is there anywhere else to put the title? I tried entering it in my SEO pack options but that made no difference either. (I’ve removed it from there now)
ETA: It’s only the homepage that this happens. With an individual post the tab shows Post title/Blog title.
Your might check your theme’s header.php file in the <head>
section for the title there. It probably look like this <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
This is what I have there:
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
I also tried switching to the default theme and the problem remained.

Could it be that something in the database is wrong since it doesn’t correct when she switches themes, something like “blogname” ?

I just change to the theme ella is using and my header.php <title> section looks just like hers.
@sacredpath – Thank you for trying that on my behalf! I do appreciate it.

Have you been able to look into the MySQL database yet?

I’ve been trying to help ellaella out with this problem, does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing this?

I installed the theme ellaella is using (sayit2) on my blog and have noticed the following. On my blog my blog name appears in the browser tab and also in the title bar and when I view the source code for my main page I see this <title>The Sacred Path </title>
On ellaella’s main page I see this: <title></title>
The title stuff in her header.php file matches my install.
Does anyone know where the header.php file gets the text string to insert between the title tags when index.php creates the pages? I’m thinking that is in the wp_options table in the database off of option_id #2, blogname, option_value. Option_value in my DB is “The Sacred Path.” I do not yet know what it is in hers.
I’ve found this from options-general:
<table class="optiontable"><tr valign="top"><th scope="row"><?php _e('Blog title:') ?></th><td><input name="blogname" type="text" id="blogname" value="<?php form_option('blogname'); ?>" size="40" /></td></tr><tr valign="top"><th scope="row"><?php _e('Tagline:') ?></th><td><input name="blogdescription" type="text" id="blogdescription" style="width: 95%" value="<?php form_option('blogdescription'); ?>" size="45" /><br /><?php _e('In a few words, explain what this blog is about.') ?></td>
But do I insert the name somewhere there?
And in admin-header.php I have this:
<head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php echo get_option('blog_charset'); ?>" /><title><?php bloginfo('name') ?> › <?php echo wp_specialchars( strip_tags( $title ) ); ?> — WordPress</title>
