Eventide Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Site URL: https://www.relativelygenealogy.com/ For some reason on my home page in the browser tab it contains the words "General 2". My page title is consistent in page settings, SEO and in the header title. Not sure where it's coming from. Link to comment

Eventide Posted March 24, 2022 Author Share Posted March 24, 2022 Thanks but I can't see where to do it. When I click on SEO - I get the first image which I can't edit. Then when I click on edit website SEO settings i get the left sidebar. I don't see an option to change it. Link to comment
Eventide Posted March 25, 2022 Author Share Posted March 25, 2022 I found the issue. It was the %p in the SEO title format. Link to comment
usingmyhead Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 There is also currently a bug on Squarespace 7.1 where it is setting the layout name as the SEO title. I made a video and discuss this problem here: tuanphan 1 Link to comment
Eventide Posted May 4, 2022 Author Share Posted May 4, 2022 @usingmyhead I can't see the video. Link to comment
Eventide Posted May 4, 2022 Author Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) Thank you. Being new at Squarespace I didn't realize that was a bug and wound up changing each of the populated SEO titles. Hope there are no implications of doing that. Edited May 4, 2022 by Eventide Link to comment
usingmyhead Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Populating the SEO titles is no bad thing to do; the field is there in case you want Google to show something different from the Page Title. The Page Title appears as the name of the browser tab when folks are viewing your web page, and it also appears as the bookmark if they bookmark/favourite that page. By default, Google will pull whatever is set as the Page Title, unless you fill in the SEO title. Since whatever Google pulls from your page will appear as the link in the Google search results, sometimes people choose to use the SEO title include keywords or create a more compelling phrase that will make people want to click. For example: About Miko Coffey (Page Title) About Miko Coffey - Squarespace Expert, Designer & Trainer in London (SEO Title) Eventide 1 Link to comment
