Title Tag Problem

Hi guys,

I noticed that when I create a post with paginated articles the page title is not updated when I click on the next/previous post.

For example, the URL does change to something like dogs-ready-for-summer/2/…dogs-ready-for-summer/n/. However, the Page title remains as “11 Dogs Ready for Summer” instead of “11 Dogs Ready for Summer – Page n” or something like that.

Is there any way you guys can help me with this? Thanks in advance.

Hi Bodgan,

Thank you for the response.

I was referring to the title meta tag in the header section of my site. As I pointed out before, the title in the URL bar is being updated fine.

I am using a plugin for pagination. Not sure if your theme is responsible for this change or if the plugin is.

Here is a sample post http://fourleggedguru.com/dogs-ready-for-summer/
If you click on the next button, that’s when the issue I’m having comes into play. I’m getting duplicate content warnings because of this and would like to correct this ASAP.

Thanks!!

You can control the meta title and description for the category/archive page 2,3,4 in Yoast SEO; there is specific setting to do that 🙂 I believe it also works for posts.

Theme doesn’t control the meta data like what you’re asking.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for your response.

I have that setting turned on in Yoast SEO and it works as it should for normal pagination pages.

Please see the examples below(This site makes use of the setting in Yoast you referred to)

Page with custom slider and no title change: http://fourleggedguru.com/dogs-ready-for-summer/

Page with normal pagination and title change as provided by Yoast SEO: http://fourleggedguru.com/category/breeds/

Could it be some other settings colliding or something of that nature? Thanks for any feedback.
