WordPress MU

How do I remove the >> from my browser title?

Example: http://tackletog.com/news/2009/03/09/new-berkley-gulp-alive-panfish-baits/

You see ">> NEW Berkley Gulp! Alive! Panfish Baits - Mozilla Firefox"

you are running wordpress, this is the wpmu forum!

what you need to do is edit your theme, header.php change the title, mine looks something like: <title><?php wp_title(); ?></title> yours might be different.

anyway, go ask in the wordpress forums...

I'm running WPMU 2.7.

I edited header.php to only show the subject in the browser title.

Original: <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>

Edited: <title><?php wp_title(); ?></title>

Somehow the wp_title styles it with >>

Why am I doing this, so search will show up with the subject and not the blog name infront of it.

your source code says: `<meta name="generator" content="WordPress 2.7" />
` that lead me to believe you were running wordpress not wpmu.

maybe you have an active plugin (SEO like) that tries to optimize your title?

Ovi, WPMU also puts generator as 'WordPress <version>', not something else :)

:-) never noticed, I replaced mine a long time ago

It looks like its coded into some themes. There is a bit of logic in some of the header.php files:

<title><?php wp_title(''); ?><?php if(wp_title('', false)) { echo ' &raquo;'; } ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?> </title>

So what you should get is Title >> Blogname.

Yeah, it's coded somewhere, I haven't found it yet.
I juggled the title info around to have SUBJECT TITLE - BLOG NAME

Now it's showing >>Subject title - blogname

As I said its in the header.php file for the theme » is the >> so if you want to get rid of it then remove that bit of logic

Steve, sorry, didn't catch that. Thanks for your help.

and of course the post interpreted the & raquo as the real deal.

so

<title><?php wp_title(''); ?> - <?php bloginfo('name'); ?> </title>

Would do it
