I do notice now after installing Yoast WordPress-SEO that when I “like” on Facebook it fills in the post title, and when I +1 on Google it puts “blog title and post title”…

RSS Graffiti worked perfectly to send everything to Facebook as well so thats squared away.

Is there any way to make it give post title only and not blog title + post title when I +1 to Google?

Also, LinkedIn share button is still only sending blog title and not post title… any way to edit that?

Is there a page where its telling the share buttons what to send that I might be able to edit?

Thanks Angela, RSS Graffiti does exactly what I need for Facebook…

Thanks Angela, I’m going to try RSS Graffiti for posting to Facebook…

Yes…

(I’m using Yoast WordPress-SEO)

I turned on meta tags… then on the Titles page I filled in all of the tags…

For example:

Post:
Title Template: %%title%%
Meta Description Template: %%excerpt%%
Meta Keywords Template: %%focuskw%%, %%tag%%

When I create a new post it shows me the Snippet Preview…. then under that the Focus Keyword, SEO Title, Meta Description and Meta Keywords are all blank… Next to SEO title I can click on “Generate SEO title” and it will populate the SEO Title with the post title…

I thought the purpose of filling in the tags on the Titles page was so that these fields would automatically populate… Clearly I’m missing something…

So I guess I have two problems… I think I’m missing something on the Yoast WordPress-SEO to make sure I’m using it properly… and then also the issue of the Page Title being used instead of the Post Title when individual blog entries are shared through social media ie Facebook or LinkedIn.

So I set up the wordpress-seo and I’m still not having any luck, not sure what I am doing wrong…

I notice that any time I share the posts or they are picked up by the RSS feed the title of every single post is the website name…

Any additional assistance would be appreciated…

Thanks Bunty, I had never heard of that before but I checked it out… thank you for your time ??

Thanks so much for the recommendation Johnb, I’ve installed the first one and will give it a try… thanks for taking the time to respond!

Thanks wpbum – my code looked a little different but I was able to snip snip and get the right line out… thank you!

From all pages…

Thanks for your help jnhghy

Thanks wbbum and jnhghy – giving it a try now.

Thanks Amy – actually under Theme Options > Header > the only options it gives me is to remove the header IMAGE or re-set the image… no option to remove the site title/description/name etc… I checked there before I came here because I figured that would be the obvious solution but no go…
