    Hi everyone,

    I installed the Greg's High Performance SEO plugin on a modified Genesis Sample theme.

    Somewhere in the plugin's interaction with the child theme, it created a secondary title that always appears. See the double title in https://www.permaculturereflections.com/senna-siamea/.

    I am supposed to be able to put in a custom secondary title if I want, or leave it blank.

    Here's the really troublesome part. I've tried deactivating and deleting the plugin, but even with the plugin deleted, the site now always repeats the title in the secondary title position.

    I don't know what would have been overwritten, or how/where I might fix it.

    Any thoughts?

    Add a class to style.css for .entry-header h2 and set display: none;

    That would nuke the secondary title, but then Google would nuke me for having hidden text. (Google has once even delisted Google Adwords for doing that.)

    I don't know if Google would treat it the same as display:none but here is an alternative:

    .entry-header h2{
    	text-indent: 100%;
    	white-space: nowrap;
    	overflow: hidden;
    }

    Unfortunately, that would be the same thing. If you've got

    • text hidden by css
    • text behind an image
    • an image that is set off the screen with css positioning

    A google crawl is going to pick it up and tag it under shenanigans.

    Since the second title seems to be coming from your plugin, you'll need to contact the plugin developer or remove the Genesis entry title. Here is a link to the page: http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/entry-header/#remove-entry-title

    Thank you, Victor. It looks like this is the approach I will have to take.
