    Hey guys.
    Sorry if this is already mentioned , I did look and didn’t find any similar solutions.

    Ok, my site https://www.tynetime.com is working fine but, my site title, eg. the Text that shows up in the tab just shows up as “|”, I don’t know why this is, I’m thinking it has something to do with 2.8 which I upgraded to.

    Cheers for any help

  • first thing to check is that your site title is filled in.

    make sure site title is filled in here: dashboard > Settings > General

    Upgrading removed my site title, easily resolved tho ??

    How stupid am I?!
    I actually thought about changing that to ‘Tyne Time’ <- Site Title but I thought it would put a normal line of text over my header like it did on the old version.

    Thanks for the help ??

    Actually, hate to BUMP but it’s still not working right.

    I have managed to rename it but the | is still showing up

    https://www.tynetime.com – Title is – “| Tyne Time”

    are you using an SEO plugin? they typically tag | Sitename onto the page title, go into the settings menu then to your seo plugin, you can probably remove then line ‘|’ here.

    If your not using an SEO plugin, it’s likely that the line ‘|’ has been hardcoded into your sites template.

    download and open your header.php file in you theme folder, few lines from the top look for the Title tag, something like this

    <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> | <?php wp_title(); ?></title>

    If the Line is present in the tag, then remove it. save and upload.

    hope this helps you out this time ??
