    Hello!

    I just updated to WP 4.4. All seems pretty good with the exception of the title of my blog “Elements Integrated” is now missing from my browser tab by the favicon. Now it reads the URL “https://elementsintegrated.com/” in the browser tab. All my pages and posts read like they used to with either the post title or page title. like usual. But on the “home” page is read the URL. Is there a fix for this? Hope that someone can help and that this is an easy fix.

    I am a total newbie, so I dont understand code, css. etc. ?? ?? Thanks so much in advance is someone can lend some advice! Here is the site:

  • I’m having the same problem s: and can’t find solutions

    I tried some solutions on the web but nothing worked, is this a issue related to 4.4?

    I think that it has to be related to 4.4. I cannot find solutions either, even went to my dashboard settings>general and all looks fine. I tried updating the settings and re-saving, but nothing. Hopefully someone can help!

    Yeah, I also tried uploading core files again and it didn’t work. The tag line is missing from the browser bar. Help someone

    Thats good to know that you tried uploading again, so I won’t try. ?? Site title Tag line is the only thing missing from mine. But all other posts and pages are aok on the browser tab. Yes– hope someone can help!

    Hey I just found a solution and I think is NOT related to 4.4.
    I changed my theme to Twenty Fifteen and it worked! the title and tag line appeared again. So I think its related to the theme that I bought (Bazien), maybe they need to release an update to fix this error.
    This my temporary (and amateur) solution:

    1. Go to your header.php

    2. Replace this line: <title><?php wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘right’ ); ?></title>

    3. For this one: <title><?php if (is_front_page()) { bloginfo(‘name’); } else if (is_single() || is_page() || is_archive()) {wp_title( ‘|’, true, bloginfo(‘name’) ); } else { bloginfo(‘name’); } ?></title>

    This will make title appear again
    Maybe this will help you

    Oh wow! Thank you… I will give this a try! But I do have a different theme, (obviously ?? do you think I need to change my theme at all?? Or just go right to the editor?

    Did you change your theme back? Let me know when you can!

    Try changing it to see if it fixes the issue. If it does, then you know is related with your theme, like mine. Then change it again and go to your editor and add the line

    @fabloria !

    Meant to get back to you earlier, but I have been tinkering around with installing a child theme, and I was successful!

    So I did what you found above and removed the line in the editor in the header.php The great thing is that I didn’t have to add the additional code in its place and everything now is back to the way it was before I updated. Now everything seems fresh again ??

    I still believe it was little glitches relating to the 4.4 update and many plug-ins, and themes were affected. Luckily there are some quick fixes like these! I know edit in my child theme..

    Want to thank you for all your help! Happy Holidays!
