I finally tracked down the source of my problem … it was coming from the Redirection plugin I was using. No idea why that plugin found the need to mess with the RSS feed title, but it did …

Details here: Redirection plugin forum

I’m having the exact same problem – did you ever find a solution?

I grabbed the code that generates the title from the feed-rss2.php file and put it in another page to display the result and it was correctly pulling my site’s name and description from the general settings without duplicating anything.

I’m guessing it’s either my theme or a plugin that is causing the duplication, but I haven’t been able to find the cause or fix it.

I am using the Yoast SEO plugin and the titles on all of my pages are displaying correctly, it’s just the RSS feed title that is messed up.

I tried adding a filter, though I’m not exactly clear on how they work … and this isn’t fixing anything for me:

if ( ! function_exists('fix_rss_feed_title' ) ) {
	  function fix_rss_feed_title() {
	    if (is_feed()) {
        $blogTitle = "TEST TITLE";
	    }
	    return $blogTitle;
	  }
	  add_filter('bloginfo_rss','fix_rss_feed_title');
	}

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

I finally found a solution that works …

Add these two lines to wp-settings.php:

define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);
ini_set(“memory_limit”, “64M”);

I’m not sure why I was still having trouble after increasing the PHP memory limit using the wp-config.php file or the .htaccess file, but this one worked.
