mobi format news description and summary

richare · 02-24-2019, 04:34 PM

Hello everyone,

I just got into recipe making. Currently I am facing a problem. In terms of description (which appears in mobi format highlights part), is there a simple way to match article's summary to description?

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

richare

Not sure what you are asking, can you explain some more?

Hi, Kovid,
Thank you very much for replying and big fan of your Calibre.

This is the highlights part I meant. Under each title, it says :"No details available". I think this because I left description to blank in the index parsing step. The description I would like is top part of the article, but not in the website's index page. I tried change poulate_article_meta.summary and summary_text. Nothing has changed.
Can I post-process description or matching the article summary to description?

I am not sure whether I explained clear this time. :-)

Thank you very much.

You should be changing text_summary not summary_text
