WordPress SEO plugins • 04.21.10
I installed an SEO Plugin, and it was very easy. I’m only displeased about one thing: It has changed my page titles. The home page has no title at all, and the post pages only have the post name and not the name of the blog. I’m sure it is a simple setting that I am missing somewhere.
UPDATE: Not sure if it was a theme issue or not, but I replaced the funky code in the title section with this:
<title>
<?php if ( is_home() ) { ?><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> | <?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?>
<?php } else { ?><?php wp_title($sep = ”); ?> | <?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?>
<?php } ?>
</title>
This will show as: Post Name | Blog Name (or just Blog Name on the home page). I think the plugin works with this just fine; if not, that is how it is supposed to appear, anyway. The only thing I might change in the future is the pipe bar | to a hyphen. I think it is more friendly to the out-loud reading software.
