But when I try to add the rss to my feed reader, the channel Title is still Nyheter RSS: Panorama Konferansehotell. And when I add the feed to my reader there are no feeds even though I have 2 AgentNewsPage type nodes.
When you installed the package, you should have got a template called "RSS Feed" in your "Templates" section.
When you append "/rssfeed.aspx" to your webpage, the package uses the Alternative Template Umbraco feature, which renders your page but with a template with an alias of "rssfeed" instead.
So the reason your template is not working should be that you are not editing the "RSS Feed" template. If you want to use your own template, just append the alias of that template instead of "rssfeed".
I believe your other post is related to this same issue, so I'm answering this one. :)
Ove, Thanks for the response. I did find the Rss Feed template right after I posted my original question. I tried deleting the original question but it didn't seem to work.
The Macro code pasted above is from the Rss Feed template. I think I was still seeing a cached version somehow.
However, this morning when I go the rssfeed url I see the xml code for my feed instead of being sent to my rss feed reader. Can you tell me what's causing this?
[edit] I just checked it in IE and Firefox and it seems to work great. It was Google Chrome that was displaying the xml. I installed the Google RSS Subscription extension in my Chrome browser and now it's working correctly.
Thank you Ove, this is an excellent project. Now I just have to figure out how to apply the proper channel title in a multi-site environment.
No items in my feed
I've installed the Eyecatch Rss Feed version 1.2 in my Umbraco 4.7 installation.
I've changed the properties in the macro to look like this:
<umbraco:Macro documentTypeAlias="AgentNewsPage" title="Agent News" depth="99" propertyName="bodyText" Alias="[EyeCatch]RSSFeed" runat="server"></umbraco:Macro>
But when I try to add the rss to my feed reader, the channel Title is still Nyheter RSS: Panorama Konferansehotell. And when I add the feed to my reader there are no feeds even though I have 2 AgentNewsPage type nodes.
I would appreciate any help you can give.

Nice! I'm happy you got it working in the end.
I am releasing a new version this weekend, with support for proper url's for images and posts. It will now be 100% valid according to http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fimlachgroup.com%2Fnews%2Frssfeed, but it will also implement all W3C recommendations.
