Change URL in "this article was downloaded from..."

Barty · 10-03-2016, 08:20 PM

Is there a way to set a different url for the link at bottom that says "this article was downloaded by calibre from (url)".

I want to set the url to a human friendly one. The url the recipe is downloading from returns a json, which is going to be confusing and unhelpful.

Barring that, is it possible to simply suppress that line?

Implement print_version() in your recipe to return the json url while parse_index returns the human url. The article will be download from the url print_version returns, while the original url will be displayed in the footer.
