Rank math does not provide Title Tag

#1111908
  • Rank math is working since it shows all the meta data from rank math but it does not provide the correct title tag (Title tag shows similar to the h1 text). I want to use the title provided on rank math instead of using the h1. how can i do that?

  • Hello,

    I apologize for the issue you are facing with the title tag in Rank Math. It sounds like you want to ensure that the title tag is distinct from the H1 text and reflects what you’ve set in Rank Math.

    To achieve this, you can follow these steps:

    1. Edit the Title in Rank Math: Go to the post or page where you want to change the title tag. In the Rank Math meta box, you can set a custom title that differs from your H1. Make sure to enter a unique title in the SEO Title field.

    2. Check Your Theme Settings: Sometimes, themes may automatically pull the H1 text as the title tag. Check your theme settings to see if there is an option to disable this feature or to customize how titles are generated.

    3. Use a Filter (if necessary): If your theme does not allow for customization, you might need to add a filter in your theme’s functions.php file to ensure that Rank Math’s title is used instead of the H1. Here’s a code snippet you can use:

      add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/title', function( $title ) {
         return get_the_title(); // This will return the title set in Rank Math
      });

      Make sure to back up your site before making changes to the code.

    4. Clear Cache: If you are using any caching plugins, make sure to clear your cache after making these changes to see the updates reflected on your site.

    Hello,

    Can you please share where you see the different title? You can also share a screenshot here using a tool like https://imgur.com/upload so that we can check the issue further for you.

    In case you see a different title tag in Google SERPs, please note that nowadays, Google does that very commonly. Even when everything is fine, Google may choose to display a different meta title and description for your search query result. Google may skip the custom metadata you have set and instead display something from the page’s content that better matches the search intent.
