How do i remove the duplicate meta Page Description (and Titles) content from my WP 4.1 Template.

I suspect the initial problem was in the export with Artisteer Meta Data filled in and then, I installed Yoast. And then added Meta to Yoast SEO.

There are (Googled) others with same WP problem and Yoast - not specific to Artisteer - i hasten to add.

You can see here: http://cannonbeachlive.com/tide-tables/

Thank you much.

Had the same issue few times. Yoast was doubling up title.

Thanks Billy. Appreciated. Now that the change is done from the article you linked, i, obviously, have more questions!

Is og:title and og:description from the Yoast plugin different from the <title> and <description> metas?

I yam seeing both on my pages - og:title and description and <meta title and description>

?

has anyone found that any time they update their theme you loose all the Yoast setting - like focus keywords and more importantly the yoast meta descriptions. Yoast seems to pull titles and even keywords but it isn't getting the meta description. I have a 65 page site so going back and adding those descriptions is a real pain every time i do a theme update. Any known solutions?
