According to the following WordPress codex link: https://codex.wordpress.org/Meta_Tags_in_WordPress
It seems to suggest that a standard WordPress install would not have any meta or title tags. So the solution you are suggesting with a “standard header tag” is to remove all meta and title tags from the theme header. Am I understanding you correctly?
Hello Alec,
Could you give me an example of what you’d consider a “standard header tag”? Did you mean “standard title tag”? and if so, an example of what you’d consider a standard title tag?
I haven’t heard from anyone at Foliovision yet but at this point I’ve found a little more information that may be helpful. I’ve found the following in the header.php doc of blankslate theme (used for the site in question):
<title><?php wp_title( ‘ | ‘, true, ‘right’ ); ?></title>
This indicates to me that what looked like “rewrite titles” rules i.e. “%page_title% | %blog_title%” was actually caused by the theme and not your plugin. Google must have cached the pages with these titles before the implementation of your plugin.
If you agree that this is the case, will your plugin override this code so that google correctly indexes the SERP with the information I’ve added via fv simpler seo on its next visit to my site?
I really need to sort this out ASAP as my page titles currently listed in google aren’t very intuitive due to this issue. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
