    I went to change my blog title so that it appears differently up in the tab slot. No problem on my sub-pages, but the home page still displays the old title. Is there somewhere else I need to go to make the title change there as well? I have a static home page that is not the blog itself, could it be because of that?

  • Try looking in your theme’s header.php template file.

    It’s all just code, not the title itself anywhere. Would I be looking for some specific code that would cause this?

    You need to look at what is being used between the <title></title> tags.

    I see this in the header:

    <!--The Title-->
    <title><?php wp_title(''); ?><?php if(wp_title('', false)) { echo ' :: '; } ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title

    Try:

    <!--The Title-->
    <title><?php wp_title(''); ?><?php if(wp_title('', false)) { echo ' :: '; } ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>

    No, it’s not missing the > I just forget to highlight it.

    But the theme also has a separate custom header with this code including ‘title’ info:

    [please mark your code using the ‘code’ button]

    function header_style() {
    
    ?>
    	<style type="text/css">
    		#header {
    			background: url(<?php header_image(); ?>) top center repeat-x;
    		}
    		<?php if ( 'blank' === get_theme_mod( 'header_textcolor', HEADER_TEXTCOLOR ) ) : ?>
    			#header #title {
    				display: none;
    			}
    		<?php else : ?>
    			#header #title a {
    				color: #<?php header_textcolor() ?>;
    				width: <?php echo HEADER_LINK_WIDTH; ?>px;
    			}
    		<?php endif; ?>
    	</style>

    the code in your last reply is some css code, and it not related to your problem.

    do you use any seo plugin?

    link to your site?

    There is ‘All in One SEO’.

    The title on the Home page just won’t change, even though it has changed if you click any other tabs.

    have you checked the settings and entries in ‘All in One SEO’ ?

    Thank you! That did it. I was not aware of where to locate any other title settings, but that’s where it was.

    well done 😉

    if this is all sorted, please mark this thread as ‘resolved’ – thanks
