Insert date in the title of the news recipe

mendesitba · 12-08-2015, 08:41 PM

Hello all! I would like to ask if someone knows an easy way to insert the date of the download in the title of .the mobi file generated by calibre news recipe.

For instance, if I have a recipe called "Daily News", I would like that the title of each news feed downloaded be named "Daily News [the date of the download]".

Thank you !

dates are not inserted in title when you download with your output profile set to any kindle device, because kindles treat periodicals specially, in their interface already. Change your output profile to something non-kindle.

When I changed the output profile to epub the only difference was that the date appeared on each article of the news feed but not on the mobi file name.

Sorry if I was not clear enough. When I said "title" i was referring to the name of the mobi file created not the title of article of the news feed.

Page Layout section of common options.
