 * Hi all, I would like to change my Title Tag/HTML Title Element within my header.
   php file. Here’s the title section in my theme’s header.php:
 * ‘<title>
    <?php wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘right’ ); ?> </title>’
 * Would it work to input this code to change the title element?
 * ‘<title>
    <?php wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘right’ ); ?> <?php if(wp_title( ‘|’, true,‘
   right’ ) { echo ‘ :’; } ?> I want this text to be my Title Element </title>’
 * Thanks for your help.
