Hi @perez21989,
The theme you’re using adds its own title styling. You should contact your theme author about this issue, so other users won’t have to face it.
And, while waiting for them to fix it, there’s a free extension named Title Fix that’ll patch it right up: https://theseoframework.com/extensions/title-fix/
After it’s activated, you should clear your page cache. When that’s done, you’ll have to wait for Google to crawl your site again. You can speed up this process by asking them to recrawl your URLs:

I hope this helps! Cheers 🙂
Thanks for your answer, that was the modest answer from Newspapper Theme Support:
“Hello,
Please test this on a wp default theme. Our theme does not change the title of the site. It is wordpress that adds titles. Usually a seo plugin can change the title and metas. We can only recommend seo by yoast though.
Thank you!”
If I do that | Disable global brand and then always paste in each post then it must then show normal or?
Hi @perez21989,
I found that the theme outputs the legacy title. And, it should function normally if it wasn’t for the additional filter.
Now, the legacy title rendering in TSF offers an inconsistency, which requires a major overhaul. This overhaul is already prepared and written for the next major release: TSF v3.1.
In the meantime, to quickly resolve your issue, you should either activate the Title Fix extension, or you can add this little snippet in your child theme’s functions.php file:
remove_filter( 'wp_title', 'td_wp_title', 10 );
From version 3.1 of TSF, neither fixes should be necessary any more.
