I mean separating my title from what?</p> <p>On the other hand, if I enter a title for a page, the browser simply displays that title with the separator appended or prepended. Again what is this separator for? </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/title-char-limit-0-by-default#post-4115 Wed, 11 Aug 2010 11:14:00 +0000 Dobie 4115@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>Hello,<br /> The Page Title character limit is set to 0, on both Page Edit and Global Settings.

Now that I am done with my wife’s website and she is up to speed with adding all her “fabulous” recipes (shameless plug for my babe <a href="http://www.recipetrezor.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.recipetrezor.com</a></p> <p>I now created a site for me, I am using word press 2.8 for my wife’s and 2.9.2 for my site <a href="http://www.photoconcept.net" rel="nofollow">http://www.photoconcept.net</a>, please don’t ask me to upgrade her (if it’ not broke-I am not going to fix it) </p> <p>My question is as follow:</p> <p>when I google recipetrezor.com by putting (site:www.recipetrezor.com) - google returns results showing the title of the posts only and discription below, which I like. </p> <p>When I google my site the same way site:www.photoconcept.net google always returns the words<br /> (Photo Concept&gt;&gt;) to the left, then the post title. I find this very distracting because most of the time the post title is descriptive of the contents of the post. </p> <p>What am I doing wrong I set up both sites the same</p> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated. </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/wrong-output-on-page-title-no-space-before-separator#post-4051 Sun, 18 Jul 2010 14:21:49 +0000 Joel Teixeira 4051@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>The problem is that there is no space before the separator, so intead of:</p> <p>"BlogTitle &gt;&gt; PageTitle"</p> <p>I got</p> <p>"BlogTitle&gt;&gt; PageTitle"</p> <p>My website is: MaemoBrasil.org</p> <p>I really apreciate any help, I tried everything I know before come here borrow you guys but I couldn't find any sollution by myself.

This used to be part of the original Arthemia coding (my theme) but I have since taken it out because I don't like it. Now, somehow Headspace has adopted this same practice and I can't get rid of it. Nowhere in my Headspace settings can I see the "»" being used and I'm wondering if maybe there's a cache that I can clear that might get rid of it? (see: <a href="http://www.farwestchina.com)" rel="nofollow">http://www.farwestchina.com)</a></p> <p>My debugging process proved to me that the problem lies with Headspace, not anywhere in my coding, because when I erased my headspace titles, the "»" also went away.</p> <p>If there isn't an easy solution then I want to find out how to reinstall Headspace. If I do so will I lose all the metadata that I have put into it? How can I ensure that this won't happen?</p> <p>Thanks in advance for all your help.<br /> Josh </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/change-results-page-title#post-3781 Sun, 11 Apr 2010 14:03:20 +0000 John 3781@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>You can change the title by editing the post - the title field is the first input to be shown. </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/title-pulling-up-wrong-title#post-3745 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 14:48:15 +0000 Jason Andrews 3745@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>Any page that I have a Post query on will pull up the wrong title tag.</p> <p>Example:</p> <pre class="brush: php; html-script: true; light: true">&lt;?php $recent = new WP_Query("category_name='songs'&amp;meta_key=video_value"); while($recent-&gt;have_posts()) : $recent-&gt;the_post();?&gt;</pre> <p>//Post Stuff Here</p> <pre class="brush: php; html-script: true; light: true">&lt;?php endwhile; ?&gt;</pre> <p>^^Will pull up the Title for the last post on the list and not the Title of the Page I have setup in the Page's HeadSpace.

Lots of it's features are very much to my liking (for example the meta data search and comment search, awesome !)</p> <p>However as of today I noticed some things missing. The bug might be in there for a long while, or since the last update. Not sure.</p> <p>The following are two examples which re-construct this bug.</p> <p><strong>Case 1: Title</strong><br /> I have a blogpost with the title "Ribs &amp; Blues 2009". However when searching for "ribs" it doens't return any results at all.<br /> When I search for "ribs en blues" (not the, but the way it's mentioned in the article) then it does return the right result.<br /> Including the words 'Ribs" and "Blues" highlighted in the title on the search results page. However both "ribs" and "blues" as single-word searches do not return this article.</p> <p>-&gt; Bug: Search Unleashed seems to completly ignore post titles, however it does highight the search phrase in the title of there are results.</p> <p><strong>Case 2: Full content</strong><br /> I haver a (quite large) page called "Archive" with somewhere halfway down the page a certain name of a person (ie. Shawn Jones).<br /> A search on this name, again, doesn't return a single thing. </p> <p>-&gt; Bug: It appears the full content (meaning the content that is not <code>the_excerpt()</code> and not before <code>&lt;!--more--&gt;</code> is not being searched through.</p> <p><strong>My settings</strong><br /> <img src="http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/1531/afbeelding1.png" alt="afbeelding1.png" /><img src="http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/1299/afbeelding2.png" alt="afbeelding2.png" /></p> <p>I've re-indexed the site (several times actually) but results remain the same.</p> <p>--<br /> TeMc</p> <p>PS: Here's the pages in question:<br /> <a href="http://oerknor.nl/?s=ribs" rel="nofollow">http://oerknor.nl/?s=ribs</a><br /> <a href="http://oerknor.nl/?s=ribs+en+blues" rel="nofollow">http://oerknor.nl/?s=ribs+en+blues</a><br /> <a href="http://oerknor.nl/ribs-blues-2009/" rel="nofollow">http://oerknor.nl/ribs-blues-2009/</a><br /> <a href="http://oerknor.nl/archiefoverzicht/" rel="nofollow">http://oerknor.nl/archiefoverzicht/</a></p> <p>PS2: Weird thing is, all other modules work fine. I type in a single word that once appeared in a comment and Search Unleashed serves it right away. No issues there at all. </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/post-tite-showing-incorrectly#post-2617 Tue, 28 Jul 2009 14:23:05 +0000 John 2617@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p><a href="http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/headspace2/faq/" rel="nofollow">http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/headspace2/faq/</a> </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/post-tite-showing-incorrectly#post-2573 Fri, 24 Jul 2009 10:21:04 +0000 John P 2573@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>I have set posts to display the following - %%title%% | %%sitename%%<br /> yet my single posts reverse it Site Name &gt;&gt; Post Name</p> <p>I have unchecked Inherit from global settings thinking that would allow Headspace to override anything else.<br /> Thoughts/ideas? </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/add-the-number-of-the-page-in-the-meta-title#post-2564 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 14:56:05 +0000 John 2564@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>Yeah, it's not going to work there.

But what I would like to ask is if, when editing an article, it were not possible that the description field is automatically filled in with whatever I defined to put in there (for example the excerpt). Because the way I use it is that I most often don't use the exact text, but only use it as a starting point. But this is only something for the wishlist.</p> <p>Unfortunately, there is still my main problem with the Blog Title still showing up in the title, i.e. my title has both - first the blog title and then the title I defined ...</p> <p>Thanks again! </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/blog-title-still-showing#post-151 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 11:32:47 +0000 John 151@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>The qtranslate issue is something you'll need to look into with the qtranslate website. I would imagine that there is a function you can call that will convert some text with square braces into a localised version. This will need to be called in your title.</p> <p>When you configure HeadSpace to use the excerpt for the description this is an automatic action. If you then put some text into the excerpt field of a particular post this will override the automatic action for that post only. This way there is no need for any copy and pasting. </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/pagetitle-order-in-header#post-144 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 11:07:19 +0000 John 144@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>The order is determined by your theme, not by HeadSpace. Look in your theme's header.php file </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/blog-title-still-showing#post-118 Sat, 29 Mar 2008 10:31:41 +0000 Martina Koppelwieser 118@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>I have exactly this problem - that whatever I do, I always get the Blog Title before everything else I specify. As I read this entry, I of course checked in my header.php and solved part of the problem (that my keywords and descriptions didn't show) in that I deleted the tags altogether in the header.php. And I also changed my title tag so it looks exactly as the one above - with the result that I always get the Blog Title first, followed by a "&gt;&gt;", and if its a single post page, I also get the "Blog Archive" phrase ...</p> <p>Another problem is related to the qtranslate plugin that I use which puts everything in language tags. So if I try to use the page title I get something like "&lt;title&gt;Zusammenleben in Israel &raquo; [lang_de]Ihre Fragen[/lang_de][lang_en]Your Questions[/lang_en] | Zusammenleben in Israel&lt;/title&gt;". I know that this is probably none of your business. But maybe you do have an idea what I could do about it?</p> <p>And then I have a last question: If I specify under general settings that for example the exerpt should be used for description, it would be nice if this would already be filled in the respective field, so I could just edit this without having to copy and paste. Besides, when I'm inside the article editing it, I might not remember - in fact, I do not remember - what I specified in the genereal settings ;-) Would it be possible to integrate this?</p> <p>I really would appreaciate your help with this!<br /> Thanks + best regards<br /> Martina </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/pagetitle-order-in-header#post-117 Thu, 27 Mar 2008 22:55:37 +0000 Scott Aniol 117@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>The order of the title in the browser header is Site Title then Page Title.

If this isn't occuring could you create a bug report with some details? An example URL (or screenshot of a non-working page) along with a screenshot of the setting that caused this would be very useful too.</p> <p>In terms of good defaults the title is very important for search engines, and so should represent the page being viewed - the more appropriate the words, the better the potential ranking. If you don't want to type a description for every post then a good 'cheat' is to set the global page/post description to %%excerpt%%. This will cause HeadSpace to automatically generate the description using the post excerpt (or post content if no excerpt exists). If you do want custom descriptions on specific pages then you can override it without affecting everything else. </p> http://urbangiraffe.com/support/topic/archive-page-title-problem-and-good-defaults#post-72 Mon, 10 Mar 2008 05:43:55 +0000 Jan 72@http://urbangiraffe.com/support/ <p>Headspace is a great plugin.
