A site on sports and pop culture.

A recipe isn't strictly needed except to satisfy my anal retentivity

tdonline · 12-24-2011, 10:25 AM

I extract the Grantland zip file and that comes out is an Epub file. When I click on "Use custom recipe file" it takes to the unzipped Grantland zip file, there isn't a recipe to pull.

Looks like Barty packaged the wrong file

Hopefully, Barty will edit the Post with the correct attachment.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

I registered on the site just so I could download this and thank you.
I've been sending all the articles to readitlater then to calibre via the readitlater recipe then the kindle.

I like this better because now I have just the Grantland articles on their own. Thanks

edit: Ok, so i have a few questions:
1. Why aren't you pulling from the rss feed. I can see why you wouldn't want to, it has the potential to make things more cluttered, but if I update earlier in the day I dont get all the content, do I?

1b. If I miss a day, is it possible to get the previous day's stories, it seems that there should be some way of doing this via pulling from the rss feed and sorting it by day.

2. Is there an easy way for me to edit the recipe so it shows the articles by date posted (basically reverse order)?

Thanks Again

If you look at the feed

feed://www.grantland.com/feed

You see it has only 10-11 articles. I'm pulling from the web site and getting the front page plus in case you missed it page. After running the recipe, you should see two sections -- latest and in case you missed it. And the articles are ordered from latest to oldest already.

waterboy100 · 01-01-2012, 10:29 PM

ok. that makes sense.

And I meant in order they were posted. Hence from oldest to newest.

Our two-part team-by-team breakdown of Saturday's NFL playoff action.
Broncos at Patriots ♦ Saints at 49ers
