    HI,
    I am running a blog on the current version of WordPress.

    When I paste a blog post link as an external links, the name of my blog appears twice. It does this in everything from LinkedIn to Pocket.

    My blog is at http://workreadplay.com but the title in links appears as WorkReadPlayWorkReadPlay.

    How do I find out what is causing this?

    Thanks

    Screenshot below of what happens when I post into LinkedIn.http://workreadplay.com/marketing-on-vine/

    Could also be a SEO plugin interfearing if you have one installed.

    In months or years to come, this thread will appear on google for someone who is having the same problem...

    Are you going to leave them a clue?

    Nice pic!

    My site title in WordPress clashed with an SEO plugin. I removed the site title from the WordPress appearances setting.
