Hi @hazloo,
I believe that Yoast does add its own title tag going off the following link, so if you do have one present within your themes files just try removing that and you should be good to just use the Yoast title tag.

Hello James,
Thanks a lot for your answer.
But actually I cannot find any place in my site theme where the page title is present.
I checked Yoast “Titles and Metas” and and found that the basic variable for titles is %%title%% %%page%% %%sep%% %%sitename%%
is it correct?
I also wonder if I should check the box “Force rewrite titles”?
The trouble is that I don’t know if this happened after the last release of Yoast Plugin (3.0.3) or if the error was already there.
On the source code of each page I get first:
…..<title>THE PAGE TITLE AS MENTIONED IN YOAST BOX</title><link rel=”profile” href=”http://gmpg.org/xfn/11″><style type=”text/css” medi…….
and the second time, somewhere else in the code :
…..<title>THE PAGE TITLE AS MENTIONED IN YOAST BOX</title><meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width” /><meta name=”generator” content=”WordPress 4.3.1″ /><meta name=”description….etc….
Thanks for your help!

I think the issue is solved now by checking “Force rewrite Titles” in Yoast box.
Thanks again for your time.
Best.
