All I need is the code to display the Blog Name of the blog in which I syndicated.
This would be the code for the author.
<?php the_author(); ?>
There should be one to display the Blog Name of a syndicated feed. Any ideas? Thanks
i tried this and gave up, i was hoping feed_title or a tag from wp-o-matic would work but no luck. so i just made a category with the same name and linked to it so i can use ‘ the_category ‘ as a simple work-around. it made it easier for visitors to look at a single feed per section (just click on the category) as some of my clients submit multiple rss feeds.

ok that makes sense.
I just noticed something weird and maybe it is in the settings but I can’t find it. By default I want the Title to link to the original source. It works when I manually update the feeds. But if I let it go automatically it links to the post’s page on my blog. What’s up with that? IS there a way to have it automatically update and provide the original link back to that site?
click on ‘syndication’ and in settings make sure ‘Permalinks point to:’ is set to ‘original website’
also, click on the syndicate feed and make sure ‘When a new post is syndicated from this feed…’ is set to ‘Use Syndication Options setting’
be careful, it has a bug and can link to other <php…> scripts in the same div of the post
for example, a lot of ‘bookmark this’ or ’email this’ plugins and scripts will also link to the source, you have to put them in a different div defined in your style sheets (like ’emeta’ or ‘comment_more’, etc.)

I checked those settings just to double check. Everything is set but for some reason the permalinks won’t redirect when it’s set to automatically update. Must be a bug in it..
