I use My Yahoo and added my site content to that page using the www.siteurl.com/forums/external.php.

the only problem i have is the site name doesnt show up. On all the other content boxes the first line is the site name that is a link to the site. Is there something I need to add to the site to make this show?

You did not tell the feed the type to view

.com/forum/external.php?type=RSS

Or

.com/forum/external.php?type=xml

Aaah, you don't have to have that. You just get a basic rss feed (v0.91) if you call it with no parameters.

If it's rustysoaptraders then the title is coming through just fine. The problem is probably with Yahoo.
