Wrong separator in list between blog’s page and site names versus “page nnn”

    Hello

    Before installing All in One SEO the title of the pages listing my blog entries looked like:

    Blogs – Page nnn – Sitename using the (long) dash as the separator between both Blogs and Page nnn as well as between Page nnn and Sitename.

    Now they look like:

    Blogs – Sitename – Page nnn still using using the (long) dash as the separator between both Blogs and Sitename BUT using the (short) hyphen as the separator between Sitename and Page nnn, and Page nnn is moved to the end.

    How can I go back to what I had before? Or at least use the (long) dash as the separator everywhere so that it looks nicer?

    Thanks!

    Hi @gartaud

    Thank you so much for getting in touch.

    Unfortunately, there’s no way to re-arrange the paginated page titles in a way you’d like.

    However, you may change and set a custom separator character at All in One SEO > Search Appearance > Global Settings > Separator Character

    Here’s a guide for your reference: https://aioseo.com/docs/setting-a-title-separator/

    Hope that helps, and please don’t hesitate to let me know if you need my assistance with anything else.

    I’m here to help!

    Thank you. I was at least able to manually change the separator before the page number following https://aioseo.com/docs/setting-unique-seo-titles-and-descriptions-for-paginated-content/ (under Search Appearance, Advanced, Paged Format)

    But I don’t get why the Paged Format doesn’t by default rely on the custom separator character defined under Search Appearance, Title Separator, Separator Character and instead uses a hard coded dash or why the Paged Format doesn’t even offer the possibility of using the Separator smart tag.

    May I suggest that you offer the Separator smart tag as an option for the Paged Format in a future revision of your plugin?

    Also, may I suggest that you investigate offering an option to insert the page number at a specific location of the title rather than append it at the end? That would avoid breaking the standard WordPress behavior.

    Thanks!

    @gartaud I think that is great feedback and I’ll open an issue for it. I don’t see why we wouldn’t use the global separator that the user has set. We’ll make this the default in a few versions from now once we’ve been able to resolve the issue.

    With regard to the inserting the number/format in a specific location, that would be hard to technically due to the way that our code works currently but we will also take this into consideration!
