Please confirm exactly what needs to be done to modify the header URL of your site in this code:

%s

…from this page:

http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/header/

I do not believe that my URL title cannot be changed from anywhere except in the functions.php file of the theme folder. Is that correct? And, I cannot get it to change yet.

Thanks in advance!

Whatever code you attempted to add didn’t show up properly. Make sure and select all of your code, and then click the “code” button on the forum post.

If you’re asking how to change the url Title, you would do this from WordPress itself located on the General page in your admin. Settings > General

Thanks for the quick response! Sorry, this is the code from http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/header/

`//* Modify the header URL
add_filter(‘genesis_seo_title’, ‘custom_seo_title’, 10, 3);
function custom_seo_title($title, $inside, $wrap) {
$inside = sprintf( ‘%s‘, esc_attr( get_bloginfo(‘name’) ), get_bloginfo(‘name’) );
$title = sprintf(‘<%s id=”title”>%s</%s>’, $wrap, $inside, $wrap);
return $title;
}

The issue is that the URL title in the Settings>General section is not controlling the URL title on sportseye.com since it does not match, and has not, since switching to Genesis 😉 Thus, I assumed it was normal in that this page exists:

http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/header/

Thanks again!

Please note that “Sportseye, LLC” is what I have in “Settings > General” but “Sportseye, LLC youth sports and action photos in San Diego and Phoenix” is live.

You should just be able to add whatever text you want to show up in the logo area from the General page. You don’t have to add any custom code. I’m not referring to the URL, I’m referring to the title that you see which is currently – Sportseye, LLC.

Thanks but how might I edit “Sportseye, LLC youth sports and action photos in San Diego and Phoenix” shown at the top of the browser window?

That would be your tagline which is right under the title area in the General settings page as mentioned earlier.

You can also make changes to that section from your Genesis SEO page under Homepage Settings.

I appreciate the continued response. However, the tag line entered in WordPress is “Scott Wachter :: Photographer” not “Sportseye, LLC youth sports and action photos in San Diego and Phoenix” which appears in the browser window. So, I will gladly and eagerly take your advice on Geneis SEO page under Homepage Settings. Sorry, would you please confirm that location, as I have been able to? Thanks again!

The location is in your Genesis SEO page under Homepage Settings.

What you’re seeing is something you’ve added somewhere, its the name of the page or the default description for your site……but the above suggestions should change it, unless you’ve added something somewhere else.

PLEASE send me a screenshot as to where to find Genesis SEO page under Homepage Settings since it it not obvious. There was nothing changed elsewhere, it was however, the original tag line from a theme previous to Genesis and Epik. Thanks!

It’s in your WordPress admin menu on the left. Click or hover over “Genesis” and you’ll see the page in the dropdown menu right under it. you’ll see an SEO settings page.

Yeah it’s missing on your end. Are you using another SEO plugin? If so, Genesis’ SEO automatically deactivates so you can use the plugin instead of Genesis – http://my.studiopress.com/docs/genesis-seo-settings/ …..if you do have another SEO plugin active then maybe thats where you added the text perhaps?

Check out that link above and see if that helps. That’s what the SEO settings page looks like.
