Why my meta title is like this, how to sort this out

SEO

Topic summary

A Shopify store owner using the Dawn theme reports that browser tabs display the site URL instead of the proper meta title and description.

Root cause identified:
Multiple responders checked the site’s source code and confirmed the <title> and meta description tags are missing or broken in the theme.liquid file. The issue appears related to the Yoast SEO app, which commented out the default meta tag code.

Recommended solution:
Add or restore the following code block in the <head> section of layout/theme.liquid:

<title>
  {{ page_title }}
  {% if current_tags %} – tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif %}
  {% if current_page != 1 %} – Page {{ current_page }}{% endif %}
  {% unless page_title contains shop.name %} – {{ shop.name }}{% endunless %}
</title>

{% if page_description %}
  <meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
{% endif %}

Additional steps:

  • Remove Yoast SEO conditional wrappers ({%- if disabled_by_yoast_seo -%}) that are blocking the tags
  • Verify meta content is configured in Shopify admin under Settings → Preferences
  • Check individual pages/products have SEO fields populated
  • Clear cache and test in incognito mode

The discussion remains open pending confirmation from the original poster that the fix resolved the issue.

Hi @Sivadarshan

I have given your site a look, and it looks like you have not added your meta title and descriptions yet. That is why it is not appearing.

{23BCDAD7-7AB5-4E3D-8B52-E1104F4E1E3B}2555×897 198 KB

You can add it using a SEO app like SearchPie: SEO, Speed & Schema.

Hope this helps,
David

Hi @Sivadarshan
It looks like meta tags are not setup on your store, Firstly check theme.liquid if meta title and description are present there then

Under settings, update store name and other details correctly
and for every page, product and articles there is a seo section at the bottom, please add seo friendly title and description there

Once all is setup correctly and meta title and descrription are there in theme.liquid then it should work just fine
You can add code like this for meta title and description in head tag in theme.liquid if it is not already there


    <title>
      {{ page_title }}
      {%- if current_tags %} &ndash; tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif -%}
      {%- if current_page != 1 %} &ndash; Page {{ current_page }}{% endif -%}
      {%- unless page_title contains shop.name %} &ndash; {{ shop.name }}{% endunless -%}
    </title>

    {% if page_description %}
      <meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
    {% endif %}

Please like and accept the solution if it is helpful to you.

Thanks!

Hi @Sivadarshan,

I checked and currently the source does not have a title tag, so it causes this error.
Please go to Actions > Edit code > layout > theme.liquid file and add code:

<title>
      {{ page_title }}
      {%- if current_tags %} &ndash; tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif -%}
      {%- if current_page != 1 %} &ndash; Page {{ current_page }}{% endif -%}
      {%- unless page_title contains shop.name %} &ndash; {{ shop.name }}{% endunless -%}
    </title>
{% if page_description %}
      <meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
    {% endif %}

If I helped you, then a Like would be truly appreciated.

Hi @Sivadarshan ,

You can easily edit the meta title and meta description this way. First, go to your Shopify store, then go to Edit Code, and open the theme.liquid file. After that, write the code given below.
I have attached both pictures: before and after.

@Sivadarshan I checked your store from source code page and I fail to search out meta title and meta description properly. If you indeed added them before, this means your meta title and meta description codes are broken. You need to go to theme.liquid file and search if can locate related code and fix it by reverting to the previous version to check out the correct code block. You can see my shared screenshot below for more details.

Hi @Sivadarshan

After my checking, I fail to find out your meta title and meta description from source code page. You may not add meta title and meta description content properly from Shopify Preference page, or the related code in theme.liquid file is broken.

If you proceed to fix this issue, you can share the code content in theme.liquid file and I can help you locate the error directly. Thank you!

Change below code contents

<title>
      {{ page_title }}
      {%- if current_tags %} &ndash; tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif -%}
      {%- if current_page != 1 %} &ndash; Page {{ current_page }}{% endif -%}
      {%- unless page_title contains shop.name %} &ndash; {{ shop.name }}{% endunless -%}
    </title>
{%- comment -%} End Yoast auto-disable. {%- endcomment -%}
{%- endif -%}

    {% if page_description %}
      {%- comment -%}Auto-disabled. Yoast plugin is taking care of Meta Tags output.{%- endcomment -%}
{%- if disabled_by_yoast_seo -%}
<meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
{%- comment -%} End Yoast auto-disable. {%- endcomment -%}
{%- endif -%}
    {% endif %}

into

<title>
      {{ page_title }}
      {%- if current_tags %} &ndash; tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif -%}
      {%- if current_page != 1 %} &ndash; Page {{ current_page }}{% endif -%}

</title>

{% if page_description %} 
<meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
{%- endif -%}

Your meta title and meta description will appear normally. Yoast SEO app commented your code and result in this error.

Hey @Sivadarshan :waving_hand:

When a browser tab shows the URL instead of your page title, it usually means the <title> tag is missing or empty. In Dawn it’s set in layout/theme.liquid.

Fix in Dawn (fast)

  1. Online Store → Themes → … → Edit code → layout/theme.liquid

  2. Inside <head>, make sure you have this block (add it if missing), above </head>:

<title>
  {{ page_title }}
  {% if current_tags %} – tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif %}
  {% if current_page != 1 %} – Page {{ current_page }}{% endif %}
  {% unless page_title contains shop.name %} – {{ shop.name }}{% endunless %}
</title>

{% if page_description %}
  <meta name="description" content="{{ page_description | escape }}">
{% endif %}
  1. Keep the default line too:
{% render 'meta-tags' %}

(If you use any SEO app that injects meta tags, make sure it isn’t removing/overriding the <title>.)

Also check

  • Online Store → Preferences → Title & meta description (fill Homepage title/description).

  • Open your site, View source, search for <title> — confirm it shows the text you expect.

  • Hard refresh / test in Incognito (favicons/titles are cached aggressively).

If you still see the URL after this, share the current <head> from theme.liquid and I’ll point to the exact line to adjust.
