Website name appearing twice on links?

Hi.

On my blog, in search engines, and if I share to Facebook, the name of my website is appearing twice, for example: Mobile - Willhub Technology Blog | Willhub Technology Blog

Anyone have any idea why this is happening?

I'm using WordPress btw.

Thanks.

Have you duplicated the Site Title in the Admin > Settings > Tagline box? Just a guess.

No, the tag line says something different to the site title.

this is the title tag taken from your blog.. that's why it will appear twice in facebook etc.

Code:

<title>
	Willhub Technology Blog | Willhub Technology Blog	</title>

Just go to the page and enter the title manually. It will confuse Wordpress but who cares.

Never noticed the title.

In settings it's not duplicated wonder what could be causing that?

I don't think I can enter it manually, the way it's installed on the server the files are all over the place.
