Remove Site Title from Pages – only show custom title with SEO plugin

    How do I get the “site title” to not display in the title? I have added the All in One SEO plugin and am adding my meta tags that way. What’s happening is the custom title is showing with the “site title” tacked on. In the header.php, I have:

    <title><?php wp_title(‘«’, true, ‘right’); ?> <?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></title>

    In the header.php, is there a condition I should change this to so the “site title” won’t show on Pages?

    I tried hiding the site title through the CSS but that didn’t work.

    The name of the page is the wp_title part. The name of the blog itself is the bloginfo part. I’m not sure which you mean. Either of those have filters you could use to prevent the field from displaying on pages, or you could wrap one or both with something like this:

    <title><?php
    if (false === is_page()) {
        wp_title('«', true, 'right');
    }
    bloginfo('name'); ?>
</title>

    Warning: Doing the later will cause a minor headache when you update the theme, unless you’ve created a child theme.

    Thanks apljdi. Here’s the site. I’d like Site Title to show on the blog “News”, however, I don’t want the title to show on any of the pages. Would just like the titles in the SEO plugin field to show. Where do I find the filters?

    A filter is more something you write than something you find. The Codex has a pretty good explanation and some examples. You want to hook to the ‘bloginfo’ filter if I remember right, but no promises. I haven’t tested anything.
