A few weeks ago I rebranded my forum to suit all io games (used to be only for Swordbattle .io) [image] But for some search results (like one above) in Google the site headline hasn’t changed. I have changed everything in the Discourse settings to remove the swordbattle keyword, but it still show…

At a guess maybe Swordbattle.io is still somewhere in your settings maybe?

That’s what I thought too, but no. Unless there is someplace other than these two places, let me know. [image] [image]

But I dont understand the ones for example “Categories - Io Games Forum - Swordbattle.io Forum” it seems to have a mix of both the names which is very weird, it was never like that.

Yeah, so Google probably hasn’t crawled those pages that still have “ swordbattle.io ” in the title since you did the change. Give it a few weeks and it should resolve itself.

Looks like Google updated a few of your results, but not all:

This issue should fix itself over time, could take a few weeks. To help Google out, you could use the Google Search Console to request a recrawl (by resubmitting your sitemap).
