The above recipe works great but from the above you can see that I've provided for actual link instead of automating it to find it.

<div class="_3BU_3">

<a href="/issue/a-catalyst-for-growth">

<img src="https://gumlet.assettype.com/swarajya%2F2022-03%2F1cd6eed6-3f1f-4eff-b163-076ad9492ae4%2FMarch_2022_Cover.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&amp;format=webp&amp;w=360&amp;dpr=1.0" data-src="https://gumlet.assettype.com/swarajya%2F2022-03%2F1cd6eed6-3f1f-4eff-b163-076ad9492ae4%2FMarch_2022_Cover.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress" alt="A Catalyst For Growth" sizes="( max-width: 500px ) 98vw, ( max-width: 768px ) 48vw, 23vw" class="qt-image gm-added gm-loaded gm-observing gm-observing-cb" loading="lazy" title="" style="">

The above is from the default page (https://swarajyamag.com/) within which we find the above class '_3BU_3' where we can automate to find href(actual magazine page to parse for articles) and cover_url.

def get_cover_url(self):
        soup = self.index_to_soup('https://swarajyamag.com/')
        tag = soup.find(attrs={'class': '_3BU_3'})
        if tag:
            self.cover_url = tag.find('img')['src']
        return super().get_cover_url()

I tried above for cover_url but I knew that it won't work cause I don't know how to split it.. img['src'] = img['data-src'].split('?')[0]

Help!

Other than that everything works great, if you replace the magazine link each month.
