1. You have to find the image of the front page on the site and put its URL in the variable cover_url. Or write a method get_cover_url that returns the URL. Usually you have to find something about the printed edition on the site to get the front page. If there is no image of the front page on the site you are out of luck. Or maybe you can generate a fake one.
