 * In header.php in my theme the title looks like this:
    `<title><?php wp_title('');?
   ><?php if(wp_title('', false)) { echo ' |'; } ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></
   title>`
 * Now, I want to use another title if I have a $_GET parameter in the url that 
   is called album. But if I just write
    <title>dsalfjsdf</title> the title is’nt
   changing.
 * What can I do to be able to alter the title tag?
 * Cheers…

 * Normally you would do this within your wordpress admin, what your doing is just
   the harder way.
    I have a feeling that you fixed this by now, by just clearing
   your cache.

 * I found that it is my plugin “All in one seo” that is overwrite the titles I 
   am writing in header.php.
