Google showing author name instead of Title

  • Hi,

    I am facing a problem which I need to solve urgently. Whenever I try to add my blog’s link to Google+, it grabs the author’s name instead of the title of the article.

    Please help me. I want to solve this ASAP.

  • Just noticed the same thing. Never seen it happen before.

    Ahh, I found the casuse of my problem now. Are you using https://schema.org/Person markup for the author box in your posts?

    I thought I was doing it by the book by structuring all the data in correct schema.org tags, but it took over the entire page title on Google+

    In my case I just replaced:
    <div itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person">
    with:
    <div>
