My problem with the feeds mentioned above is that I don´t know how to get the right url to put in the script. But both webpages have RSS-feeds.

The first one has RSS url http://ticker.gulli.com/rss
And the other one has RSS url is http://feeds.feedburner.com/fayerwayer

What exactly is your problem?

To get these urls... But it works with them, so thank you very much!

Trying to download the day's articles on National Review Online (www.nationalreview.com). I followed the "how-to" online to do the custom script, and came up with this:

class AdvancedUserRecipe1247136264(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'National Review Online'
    oldest_article = 2
    max_articles_per_feed = 30

    feeds          = [(u'National Review Online', u'http://www.nationalreview.com/index.xml')]
    def print_version(self, url):
        return url.replace('http://article.nationalreview.com/', 'http://article.nationalreview.com/print/')

But all that gives me is, basically, a table of contents. Before adding the two last lines -- "def print_version etc." -- it did return articles, but only the first pages of multipage articles, and not the print pages (which are the complete articles).

Where am I making my mistakes?

Can someone make a new recipe for the Sunday NYTimes because the current one does not contain the Sports or Business section for Sunday only?

Can I get a custom recipe for the NOAA in my area. here is the link to the webpage:

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick...2=-83.6313&e=0

I tried to do this myself by adding a feed but it didn't work.

Do I just add the script you create in the recipe box in advanced mode?
Thanks,
Paul

You can do it yourself. See this post: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=578

Start in the same manner, add all the feeds you want and than click on advanced mode button and add this at the bottom:

    encoding = 'utf-8'
    def print_version(self, url):
        return url.replace('www.todayonline.com/', 'www.todayonline.com/Print/')

It should work like that

I forgot to add this

     use_embedded_content  = False

With that it will work
