News recipes: Is it possible to remove different tags, depending on the article URL?

red_trumpet · 03-17-2023, 04:27 PM

When writing a recipe for a news site, one typically declares which HTML tags are to be removed, using e.g.

Code:

remove_tags

and related attributes. Now the RSS feed of German state news Tagesschau also links to articles at other sites, like for example NDR. Is it possible to have different

Code:

remove_tags

, depending on the URL of the article?

Also, it is possible to combine different RSS feeds, using the

Code:

feed

array. I was also wondering how one would deal with that, if they need different

Code:

remove_tags

.

No you cant have different remove_tags per URL. If you need more advanced processing than remove_tags provides, implement preprocess_html in your recipe, then you can do whatever you like.
