Remove site name in og and twitter titles?

Hi — well just an editorial note, that if you get the PRO version and then expect any kind of actual “support” from YOAST on how to do anything advanced .. forget about it; they don’t show you HOW to do anything, just point you at the API and suggest you hire somebody. Most other PAID plugins do much better with support on common issues like my question above.

I donate to numerous plugins in the WP community the past 12 years, and most theme authors will help because they actually do the code; while Yoast folk do not (I believe, perhaps incorrectly, it’s outsourced).

That being said, I did manage to do a Google search, and found some working elements and guessed on the second one, since the so called hook/API list on Yoast website is incomplete (hint: look in the damn plugin code to find it!).

SO, whining over, for anybody else — HERE is how to do it:

this would go in your main functions.php file, of course

function my_opengraph_title( $title ) {
	$title = get_the_title();
	return $title;
}
add_filter( 'wpseo_opengraph_title', 'my_opengraph_title' );

function my_ogtwitter_title( $title ) {
	$title = get_the_title();
	return $title;
}
add_filter( 'wpseo_twitter_title', 'my_ogtwitter_title' );
