Hi @adisaputro,

Please let me know, why you think this is not good for SEO?

In case you want to add some text before (prefix) or after (suffix) the tag you can use this simple code in your active WP theme functions.php file:


function wpforo_custom_tag_title( $tag_title ){
$prefix = 'Topic Title: ';
$suffix = '';
if( !empty($tag_title) ){
foreach( $tag_title as $part => $title ){
if( $part === 0 ) $tag_title[ $part ] = $prefix . $title . $suffix;
}
}
return $tag_title;
}
add_filter('wpforo_seo_tag_title', 'wpforo_custom_tag_title', 10);

@martin thank you for the fast respond, I think with double character like "--" is not good SEO because google may think that character is useless, how to edit or modify this..

Can you elaborate what your code purposes and can you give me an example to use that code?

@adisaputro

This is not wpForo chars. wpForo tag title looks like this:

seo - wpForo Support Forum

wpForo only use " - " for separation. Your case a site specific case, it comes from your plugins or from you tag. Maybe your tag has a en extra "-" in it. In any case this issue doesn't come from wpForo. Check other tags if you see the same "--" try to find which plugin does this. Also this maybe hooked by your theme or some custom code in theme's functions.php .

You can check the real tag titles of wpForo here:
