Have you looked at https://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/rss?
Selecting all of "functions" generates http://rss.mckinseyquarterly.com/f/1...4liu8d2k2e.rss for me, assuming it is not personalized.
Selecting all of "regions" generates http://rss.mckinseyquarterly.com/f/1...4lj88d2mun.rss
Can you check if this is the same for you?

If those would work and provide the requested content, the rest looks manageable. Let me know and I am happy to look into it.

Cheers,

That would be awesome! Perhaps even with Login capability?

Thanks a million in advance,

Selecting all "Functions" (and only those) gives me

http://rss.mckinseyquarterly.com/f/1...4mfd8df3d5.rss
http://rss.mckinseyquarterly.com/f/1...4mflodf6k6.rss

Selecting all "Regions" (and only those) gives me

http://rss.mckinseyquarterly.com/f/1...4mg2odfarz.rss

if I try them 3 times consecutively. It seems to be time dependent.

I started working on this. It's confusing. There is a specific sign in page (sign_in.aspx) that does actually not sign you in. It took me some time to figure out that the reason why I am not seeing the link to the print version is because I was not signed in...

Signing in through the default home page or even the logout page (logout.aspx) always brought me to a nocookies.aspx. You have to first call up the home page, then the logout.aspx to get through. it seams that Javascript is required. Mechanize does not support Javascript if I understand it correctly.

I'll keep looking into it. The hardest hurdle is the login part. Once this is done, getting the print version should be easy.

The other issue is that the RSS feeds have overlapping articles. I guess those can be filtered out. But every user should then have to customize his/her priorities of where an article should show up.

On another angle I saw that you can read the magazine on Zinio. Any experience here on Calibre and Zinio?
