    Hi,

    The searchresults in Google for content on my site first displayd the weblogtitle + subtitle(as a hyperlink to the index-page), and than the title of the article searched for.
    In which template or where can I change the order and components off what is displayed by Google (not in my rss-template, does it?). And can I

    Example Google result (‘the secret: een excuus..’ is the title which should be the hyperlinked head of the result)

    Hollanditus.nl | Bytes to bytes, ashes to ashes…
    The Secret: een excuus voor het Grote Nietsdoen. image. Dagelijks bomaanslagen in Irak; Godvergeten Afghanistan; Eeuwig geweld in Israël-Palestina; ...

    Robert, are you wanting to have individual titles show up with your single entry pages?

    There’s more than one way to do it.

    One method is a new plugin called pi.title.php which can be found at

    😊 back again..

    I have to explain myself better. What I would like to know is how I can influence the way Google displays content form my site. When you search with Google for an exact title from my site, ‘beach children painting their future’, Google will show a result like:

    Hollanditus.nl | Bytes to bytes, ashes to ashes… - 2 maal bezocht - 29 okt
    Cambodia-s beach children painting their future · Wereldleiders op hun best: over duivels goden en ander gebroed · Zes miljard Jupiters spiegelen zes ...
    http://www.hollanditus.nl/ - 15k - In cache - Gelijkwaardige pagina’s - Noteren
    [ Meer resultaten van http://www.hollanditus.nl ]

    So I have to questions:
    1. Google is linking to the index off my site and not to the article itself. I want Google to link to the article itself.
    2. how can I make that the title of the article is the title of the google-result (now the title of the google result is the title (in the meta data) of the webpage.

    I hope I am clear enough, thanks for thinking with/for me,

    Robert

    ps. I am running 1.5.1
