I am trying to build an EPUB or MOBI book from the RSS feed of
Motif Magazine. This should be fairly simple, and it mostly works, but the name of the author is ignored. The web site uses WordPress and has both the standard built-in feed and a custom feed generated by a plug-in:
http://motifri.com/feed (built-in)
http://motifri.com/?call_custom_simple_rss=1 (plug-in)
The web site is freely accessible to the public, so anyone is welcome to use the RSS feeds. I have administrative control over the web server, but want to avoid customization unless necessary. Here's an example "item" from the plug-in RSS feed:
Code:
<item>
<title>No Simple Answers in Counter-Productions’ Gidion’s Knot</title>

I realize that "dc" is an XML namespace --
https://www.ddialliance.org/Specific...-overview.html -- and I assume Calibre should do something with it, but I'm not sure what and I definitely don't know how to make that happen.
I don't even care about a fancy by-line format, although that would be nice; I just want the name of the author to appear in the article.
