    For the last 3 months, my YOAST seo title is wrong on google? It’s being overrided by the General Site Title in WP. How do I fix this? Thank you.

    Checking the page source, the SEO Title is correct but not showing on google.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    @wesleysoccer We’re sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue on your site.

    Can you please provide us with an example URL of one of the pages where this issue is occurring, as well as a screenshot of what you have in the plugin settings for it’s title? That way we can review the source code to see whether Yoast SEO is outputting the <title> tag correctly.

    Also, please note that if you are seeing a different title used in the specific Google query that you are using, whereas Google typically uses the title from the metadata for indexing this is not always the case. Google will sometimes modify the title of the URL as it sees fit, as well as sometimes adding the brand or site name to the end of your title.

    This is not due to the plugin not functioning as expected, but rather is due to Google modifying the Title it indexes as it’s algorithm has concluded that there is a better version to index. We also have additional information on this topic available at the following link: https://yoast.com/help/my-seo-title-isnt-displayed-as-i-have-entered-it/

    Please refer to that article as the included recommendations for crafting a page title which will help increase the likelihood that Google will use the title you specified instead of modifying your page’s title as it sees fit.
