 * OK, final update from me, I think.
 * WordPress version: 3.4.1
    WordPress SEO version: 1.2.5
 * I did this: kept the “post types” part of the “titles and metas” section of WordPress
   SEO as follows – %%title%% %%sep%% %%sitename%%
 * I expected the plugin to do this: When I enter a special SEO title, this will
   be followed by a separator and then my site’s name.
 * Instead it did this: Displayed only what I typed in, with no separator and no
   site name. I’ve tried forcing title rewrites and turning off force rewrite; it
   seems to make no difference.
 * I accept I might just be being exceptionally stupid here and that this is actually
   the way it is supposed to work… I also have this sneaking suspicion my titles
   problem and ubikuos’ (and Will Franco’s) are in fact not the same – if so, please
   accept a noob’s apologies.

 * Update: clicking “force rewrite titles” has _partially_ worked for me, in that
   the post title is displaying fully, though my website title has now disappeared
   from each post (I set up the “post types” part of the “titles and metas” section
   of yoast as follows: %%title%% %%sep%% %%sitename%% ). I’ve also had a look on
   the WordPress SEO Tutorial (here: [http://yoast.com/articles/wordpress-seo/#titles](http://yoast.com/articles/wordpress-seo/#titles))
   but couldn’t find much info re this problem.
 * So trying “force rewrite” _may_ help your problems to some extent, but some help
   from an expert would be much appreciated – thanks!

 * I’m having the same issue on my site. %%sep%% doesn’t work either. Help!
