My "user" never shows anything but 0. I think that is normal.
You haven't told us if you are using "cron", "fake cron", or manually running the http://forumname/forum/cron_rss.php
Earlier here I give some examples of RSS feeds (like the USGS or even WIKIPEDIA changes) -- they are helpful in getting things up and running since they are feeds with frequent changes... Once you get your testing done, then you can move on to lower-volume feeds.
If fake cron, it will only run when users come into your forum _AND_ the time has passed for the next run.
If using cron, (preferred), have you set up the cron to "email" you so you can see any errors, etc? Are you sure your cron times are set correct?
If you are using a "scheduled task" -- then look at the task log.
Sadly, the HOW to set up cron is different all over the place -- so you will need to read much in this thread and try many different solutions if necessary.

For some reason, apostrophes are coming up as question marks, how do I change this?

Possibly the character set being used by the add-on vs. the database character set. Look through the threads about changing that.
I'm betting you may be seeing the "back-quote" and "forward-quote" vs. a regular (simple vertical) quote mark -- the special ones convert poorly when there are differences in character sets involved.
Eg there are quotes that look like: \ others that look like / -- and then there's the regular quote something like |

I have another problem - a modification does not receive the newest entry only to the entry before it. For example - I have posts: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, but on the forum there are only 4, 3, 2, 1. What to do?
