Making MobiRead Threads BookIt Friendly

=X= · 08-11-2008, 03:31 PM

Hi MR Admins,
I'd like to submit a request to the MR Admins to Making MobiRead Forum Threads Bookit Friendly.

I often use Beowulf573's awesome Bookit plugin for pulling down web content to my PRS-505 reader. Most sites have a "Print" link to flatten the article, which is also ideal for the BookIt plugin.

Unfortunately this plugin does not work for Mobiread site because of it requires manual navigation to read a thread from beginning to end.

All that would be required for the plugin to work is to flatten the threads by adding a "Print" link or a "Bookit Friendly" link and list all threads discussions on one web page.

The Mobile Layout with all the threads discussions (without page numberss) would be a great layout.

If you are using calibre you can use the RSS feeds to get the threads.

Thanks Bob,
I've looked at Calibre's default Feeds and didn't see it. Would I have to create an RSS downloader for Calibre?

What I am looking for is the ability to download one thread of interest with BookIt. This way I don't download everything, else it would be too big of a download.

Ok, I haven't used it but there is a feeds2lrf I am pretty sure.

You would just need to create a recipe I guess. Kovid or someone that has used this, please help.
