I just noticed that in Ghost 3.x (and maybe before) Pages do not have proper titles in the HTML tag while posts do.

For example, on my site a blog post:

> **[Founders, Initial Employees, and Risk](https://matthewgoldman.com/founders-initial-employees-and-risk/)**
>
> A recent discussion online and several real-life conversations have had me
> considering the risks and rewards of founding startups as compared to being an
> early employee.
> 
> Most of the conversation focuses on the financial risks and rewards of...

The Page Title is in the tag.

For a page

> **[Goonerisms Spalore!](https://matthewgoldman.com/spoon/)**
>
> Spoonerisms Galore!
> The page entirely dedicated to the listing of assorted, random & fun
> spoonerisms.
> 
> Spoonerism
> 
> \> n. the transposition of initial or other sounds of words, usually by accident.
> (1895-1900 after W. A. Spooner (1844-1930),...

The Page Title is not in the tag, instead the site name is the title tag.

Not good for SEO.

Have searched quite a bit, found some older things on pages titles for routing, but just want to change this. I couldn’t see how the title is derived in templates, it looks like it should be the meta title, but it isn’t.

Thank you!

Hey @mgoldman 👋 We are tracking the bug here [Meta titles missing in 'page' pages · Issue #11357 · TryGhost/Ghost · GitHub](https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/11357) and the fix for it will most likely be out with next release 😉
