 * Hello
    I am using the SEO plugin with great satisfaction I ve set titles settings
   like:
 * %%title%% | %%sitename%%
    coming up wherever is <title><?php wp_title(”); ?></
   title>
 * And nothing for the RSS settings
 * Now, I have a problem with the titles of my RSS feeds
    that seem to come like:
   sitenametitle | sitename or sitenametitle
 * ex: [http://www.africanbushcamps.com/african-bush-blog/safari-specials/safari-specials-now/feed/](http://www.africanbushcamps.com/african-bush-blog/safari-specials/safari-specials-now/feed/)
 * I dont know where to change that in wordpress?!
 * Could you confirm it has to do with the plugin? Any idea how to change?

 * To be honest, I don’t know that it HAS to do with this plugin, that’s a comment
   feed and it normally doesn’t actually do anything with that. Could you disable
   some of your other plugins and see if those have anything to do with it?

 * Hi Joost, thanks for your answer…
 * I suspect must have to do though… When I desactivate SEO plugin and use another
   theme (TwwentyTen), it comes back to order. Might be because I had changed in
   my theme, to comply with your advice:
 * Be aware that for WordPress SEO to be able to modify your page titles, the title
   section of your header.php file should look like this:
    <title><?php wp_title(”);?
   ></title>
 * I’ll try play with that…
    Otherwise, seems complicate to change RSS template (
   tjhough I saxwb you gieve some trick somewhere!)

 * Well… I confirm the plugin seems to affect my RSS feeds on blog categories
 * When I desactivate SEO plugin, my feed on a blog category ([http://[siteurl]/%5Bcategory-slug%5D/feed/](http://[siteurl]/%5Bcategory-slug%5D/feed/))
   comes:
    [sitename] » [category name]
 * When I activate plugin, what comes in is what I set in the plugin category settings
   for titles:
    %%category%% | %%sitename%% except that it adds the sitename and
   that makes it all ugly: [sitename][category name] | [sitename]
 * And this, whatever is in the header.php title (I finally left <title><?php wp_title(”);?
   ></title>)
 * I dont know how to get rid of this initial [sitename] – and I dont want to desactivate
   this excellent plugin!
 * I am with WordPress 3.0.5
    NB: to see updates, I have to change a post in the
   feed, or changes do not reflect

 * OK, I ve found a solution that is not very nice but works…
 * in wp-include/feed-rss2.php
    I change <title><?php bloginfo_rss(‘name’); wp_title_rss();?
   ></title> into: <title><?php wp_title_rss(); ?></title>
 * And then I get just what I had specified in Yoast Seo settings for titles:
    %%
   category%% | %%sitename%%
 * However, I am not very happy to touch to WP core files… I dont know, there must
   be a way to do this somewhere else…?
