Website title next to a post title-how to remove it?

[Rebeca1]

Thank you very much, but I am not sure if I understand you correctly. What do you exactly mean I should do and where in the yoast plugin?

In post titles in the plugin I have set to show only the post name.

Thank you very much Lynn, I have read the article just now. Well if it so that google rewrite it I have no problem with it. But is there a way I can check if I do not have some setting somewhere on site which does this?

Oh I see, so I input the title into each post. Thank you so much!

And then in general settings for post types in title templates for post and pages I have this %%title%%  should I remove it? I am afraid if I write a title into each post and will still keep this  in templates it will create 2 titles perhaps?

No Don't remove it. Don't worry about general settings, just add a new title in SEO Title every time

Hi Iris,

You can check the page source of the page you are looking at (right click and view source) and if the title tag near the top has the name of the site at the end then yes obviously it is being put in there by some setting and you can follow what Free Range has said below. I looked at a couple of your pages and did not see this, so it looks at first glance that your setup is ok and that the site name is being put in by google.

You can also try the 'Force rewrite titles' option in the Yoast settings. Sometimes this can help to remove unwanted site names from the title.
