Title and Tagline problem

  • I am having a problem understanding just how the tagline and title works here… My understanding is that the Title is The blue link in google and the tagline is the description link below. I’ve set my information as seen in the photo, and when I run an SEO site to check it keeps appending the tagline to the Title, and then the tagline underneath. Is this the site screwing up or is my google search result for the company going to be messed up?

  • how the site title and tag line will get used in the meta title and possibly in a meta description is dependent on your theme and whether you use a seo plugin.

    Thanks. If I am not mistaken 

    <title><?php
	/*
	 * Print the <title> tag based on what is being viewed.
	 */
	global $page, $paged;

	wp_title( '|', true, 'right' );

	// Add the blog name.
	//bloginfo( 'name' );

	// Add the blog description for the home/front page.
	$site_description = get_bloginfo( 'description', 'display' );
	//if ( $site_description && ( is_home() || is_front_page() ) )
		//echo " | $site_description";

	// Add a page number if necessary:
	if ( $paged >= 2 || $page >= 2 )
		echo ' | ' . sprintf( __( 'Page %s', 'twentyeleven' ), max( $paged, $page ) );

	$theme_options = twentyeleven_get_theme_options();

        $social_facebook = $theme_options['social_facebook'];
        $social_twitter = $theme_options['social_twitter'];
        $social_linkedin = $theme_options['social_linkedin'];
        $social_stumbledupon = $theme_options['social_stumbledupon'];
        ?></title>

    Is this the line I need to remove?
    $site_description = get_bloginfo( ‘description’, ‘display’ );

    I assume this should remove it from the title but leave the tagline description underneath the blue link in google correct?

    the posted code already looks as if somebody has commented the line which outputs the tagline with the meta title:

    //echo " | $site_description";

    it won’t harm, but it is also not necessary, to comment this line, like:

    //$site_description = get_bloginfo( 'description', 'display' );
