Minor, cosmetic bug that is easily reproducible with fresh, stock, unmodified install of WordPress 3.3.2 and Simple:Press 5.0.5 that effects the display of the page title in web browser.

Install fresh WordPress and Simple:Press – NO other plugins and use default Twenty Eleven theme. Name the blog Test Site.

Without changing ANY settings in either WordPress or Simple:Press the title shows up on browser “ForumTest Site” with no space between Forum and Test.

If you go to Components>SEO and enable all the “Page/Browser Title (SEO)” options it does not fix it – in fact it will display as “Forum | Test SiteTest Site” – repeating name of blog twice with no spacing in between.

Going to Integration>Page and Permalink and toggling “Filter WP list pages” on and off does not effect the behavior either way.

I tried other themes and had the same effect. And again this is with Simple:Press as the ONLY activated plugin. Only other plugins are defaults and both not active – Akismet and Hello Dolly.

I did have that problem once, it was caused by AIO SEO Pack. I had the SEO disabled on the forum page. The fix was to uncheck disable SEO on the page, and leave the fields blank.But since then i ditched AIO SEO and went with Platinum SEO.

Here is an example of my SimplePress SEO settings. Be sure to edit the default meta description to your liking. Keep it under 160 characters.

As an aside… does nobody alter the colours of their forum admin? That blue looks so drab now…

I get surprised by that too when we get access to folks sites!  That was many, many versions ago… 

In case anyone is wondering what we are talking about, on your admin options you can also select the default wp grey or blue scheme for our stuff to match the wp admin much better..
