I haven't tested it, but looking at the code it seems like that should only happen if you press "Run Now" in the scheduled task manager. If it runs via cron.php it should just be ignored. But it's possible I'm missing something.

If you wanted to add a default title you could find this line in includes/cron/rssposter.php (around line 386 - it's actually there twice, you want the second one in the "case: 'thread'" section).

$itemdata->set('title', strip_bbcode($html_parser->parse_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode($feed['xml']->parse_template($feed['titletemplate'], $item))));

And change it to something like:

$title = strip_bbcode($html_parser->parse_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode($feed['xml']->parse_template($feed['titletemplate'], $item))));
if ($title === '') $title = '.'; // or whatever default title you want
$itemdata->set('title', $title);

So is this what's been causing your problems all along, do you think? I thought you were using vb3 and the bug report says this only happens in vb4 versions.
