 * This plugin has a VERY ANNOYING bug, as it automatically inserts the site name
   AFTER the SEO title, and there is NO WAY to deactivate that!!!!!
   I am adding 
   custom Titles on every page, STILL; your plugin injects that Website name automatically
   after each title (like “my custom title here | Website Name (injected by your
   plugin!!!!) “You write :“
 * Page Title
 * By default, SEO Engine generates the page title (shown in browser tabs and search
   results) using this format:
 * Post Title | Site Name
 * If you set a custom SEO title for a post, it will be used as-is without appending
   the site name.
 * “
   Well, I DO ADD MY CUSTOM TITLES, STill your plugin injects that stupid site
   name in the end!!!!!!!!PLEASE correct this bug! It’s making titles unnecessarily
   extremely long, which PREVENTS indexing by Google, Bing etc.

 * Hi [@bambi26](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bambi26/),
 * I just double-checked the code, and custom SEO titles are used exactly as-is.
   The site name is only appended when no custom title is set ☺️
 * First thing to check: in SEO Engine’s settings, is **Auto Page Title** enabled?
   **
   If it’s disabled, WordPress or your theme builds the title instead, and WordPress
   appends the site name by default.**
 * Also, if you’re seeing this in Google’s search results rather than in your page’s
   HTML, that’s Google itself. It often adds the site name to displayed titles, 
   and no plugin can prevent that. You can verify the real title by viewing your
   page’s source and checking the <title> tag.
   Let me know what you find!Jordy.

 * Hi Jordy,
   I did not check the “**Auto Page Title**” … that sounded to me like
   the “automatically generated ” actually (like “auto” ?) …OK, now I still want
   to get rid of that Site Name even for the automatically generated, how can I 
   do that? Where is that part in the php, maybe I can just comment it out or simply
   delete 🙂 Thanks!

 * Yes, exactly! **Auto Page Title** generates clean titles the way Google expects:
   post title followed by site name. It can be overridden per post with the SEO 
   Title (Quick Edit in Content SEO), which is always respected as-is. That’s why
   it’s on by default, best of both worlds, I recommend it 😊
 * Removing the site name isn’t something SEO Engine handles directly. In fact your
   issue is not related to SEO Engine, it would be the same with it or without it.
   You can use this snippet:
 * add_filter( ‘pre_get_document_title’, function( $title ) {
   $suffix = ‘ | ‘ . 
   trim( get_bloginfo( ‘name’ ) );if ( str_ends_with( $title, $suffix ) ) {$title
   = substr( $title, 0, -strlen( $suffix ) );}return $title;}, 100 );
 * It removes the site name. The easiest way to run it is with Code Engine ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-engine/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-engine/)),
   or you can drop it in your theme’s functions.php.
 * Just in case: Google often adds the site name to search results on its own, so
   you might still see it there even with this snippet.

 * Small correction to my message above: with Auto Page Title enabled, it’s actually
   SEO Engine that adds the site name to the automatic titles (WordPress does the
   same on its own when the option is off, just with a different separator). The
   snippet works as posted **with the option enabled**, so nothing changes for you
   🙂

 * 100 x thanks 🙂
   used a slightly different function to kill that site name in 
   title, works beautifully now 🙂🤗🙏🏻
