Comment on Talian SEO Theme by SEO Dave.

Talian Red WordPress Theme LOL, wrong site for Talian support, ideally post comments at Talian WordPress SEO Theme for Talian issues.

Talian 5 lacks options to turn the meta tags off, easiest way to remove them is edit the header.php file and find the lines:

<meta name="description" content="<?php if (is_home() || is_404()) { ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?><?php if (is_year() || is_month() || is_day() || is_author()) { ?><?php wp_title(); ?> - <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?><?php if (is_single() || is_page()) { ?><?php if (have_posts()) : ?><?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?><?php the_excerpt_rss(','); ?><?php endwhile; ?><?php else : ?><?php endif; ?><?php } ?><?php if (is_category()) { ?><?php wp_title(); ?><?php } ?><? if ( function_exists('is_tag')){ ?><?php echo single_tag_title(); ?><? } ?><?php if (is_search()) { ?><?php the_search_query(); ?><?php } ?>, <?php bloginfo('description');?>" />

and

<meta name="keywords" content="<?php if (is_home() || is_404()) { ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?><?php if (is_year() || is_month() || is_day() || is_author()) { ?><?php wp_title(); ?> - <?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php } ?><?php if (is_single() || is_page()) { ?><?php the_title(); ?><?php } ?><?php if (is_category()) { ?><?php wp_title(); ?><?php } ?><? if ( function_exists('is_tag')){ ?><?php echo single_tag_title(); ?><? } ?><?php if (is_search()) { ?><?php the_search_query(); ?><?php } ?>" />

And delete them both.

Thanks for posting which Plugin was messing up the RSS feed, installed Addthis on a test server and found the issue. Makes no sense to add it to the RSS excerpt, there’s an option to turn it off on Excerpts (under Addthis Advanced settings), but has no impact on this issue.
