get older articles - newest_article?

[markoburns]

Is it possible to have a recipe to grab articles between a period of time - rather than only new ones with oldest_article- say if you wanted to grab the articles between 2007-2008?

there doesn't seem to be a newest_article though?

If the feed included articles that old, you could custom write the recipe to exclude newer articles. However, I haven't seen any feeds that go back that far. Many of the comics recipes I've written could be modified to grab a range of dates, but that's because they use parse_index to build their own feeds.

Basically, the answer is that there isn't any builtin way to do this, but you can do whatever you want with custom code.
