Yoast plug in - title settings

Hi,
I am using yoast plugin and having problems with title.
For example, my recent post http://www.soobumimphotography.com/bulverde-realtor-headshot/
It's showing as "Bulverde Realtor Headshot | San Antonio Headshot PhotographerSan Antonio Wedding Photography JournalSo basically, homepapge title is followed on every single page and post.
I would like Bulverde Realtor Headshot | San Antonio Headshot Photographer
Could you help with this?

I'm having a similar difficulty on my own site - the words "Philadelphia SEO Company" are being appended to end of every post, not pages, posts only.
- I've ticked "force rewrite titles" on the Yoast General tab.
- I'm using "%%title%% " in the title template for both pages and posts on the Post Types tab.
- I have not touched the header.php file.
Any ideas?
-
Here's how I've set up the plugin:
Under Yoast plugin settings: Titles & Metas > Check <label for="forcerewritetitle">Force rewrite titles</label>
Cautions: Any default title will be re-written by the plugin, I'm using this option because I'm optimizing titles & descriptions on all posts & pages.

This is only SEO plug in that I need to learn so it's worth spend sometime.
Thanks again

No problem, you must spend few hours to learn full potential of yoast plugin at the beginning it can be confusing. Good luck!
-
That was fix. Thank you so much
-
go to yoast seo > title & meta > under post title template set only title
may be your problem will resolved...

You have another title set in General Settings in Wordpress. That's why you have duplicated title.

Issue with Title of Homepage - Wordpress Platform
I can't seem to get Google to read the title of my homepage the way I would like it to be read and I have double checked in all areas of my Wordpress Platform where the title may be defaulting and all it set up correctly. I have also ensured that the "force re-write of titles and meta descriptions" have been checked through a plugin I am using to monitor SEO (Yoast)... here is an example of how Google is reading my homepage title: XYZ Company: Primary Keyword in Ontario Canada - XYZ Company I would like it to read: Primary Keyword in Ontario Canada - XYZ Company But for some reason it keeps pulling in my website title. I have always re-submitted my URL to Google but no luck with the title change. If anyone has any insight as to why this is defaulting as such I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Page Title Displaying differently on Google
Hi i am wondering why page title is display differently on google search. The combination of words that are being displayed on google are not on the page and the page title is simply "Camera Filters", however the page is showing as "our range of Camera Filters" (with the same capitalisation). http://awesomescreenshot.com/0cf4r09y27 I have optimised the age as best i can so it removes the OUR RANGE OF preface, however no luck. Any info would be appreciated. Cheers

No Access to change duplicate product title and meta tags!?
I have a client who's website contains a php file to dynamically call a product xml file from an external source. I asked the web dev company if there was any way to access or change the titles and meta descriptions to be unique for each product and they said no, not with their system. With about 63 product pages is this going to hurt me trying to get him ranked locally? What is the best to handle a situation like this?

Changing the Title Tag But It Does Not Reflect In Google Results
I have changed the page title for www.finanscaddesi.com to read as "Finans Caddesi | Paranın Pusulası" (as you can see from the source code) But Google still shows the old version. I have checked Google's guidelines regarding page titles. They say if we find a reference anchor text that is linking to the page (such as a DMOZ entry) we may use the anchor text as page title. I wonder whether there is a method I can follow to change the title tag to appear as "Finans Caddesi | Paranın Pusulası" in Google search results. Thanks in advance!

WordPress Question: Canonical field in Category Section of Yoast SEO Plug In
I've added the Yoast SEO Plug In for my word press blog. When I add a new category, there is a listing called "Edit Category". On this page there is a listing "Yoast WordPress SEO Settings." In this section, there are two fields in which I need guidance on what is supposed to be included. One: There is a field called "Canonical". What info is supposed to be entered in this field and how does it need to be formatted? Is it a URL. If so, what URL is supposed to go there? Two: Breadcrumbs title. What is the purpose of this field? (Isn't it OK to just use the category name as the breadcrumb title?)
