Display older items from RSS feeds #380

Good Day again,

I wanna know if there's any feature on your Taiga that can go beyond the date of the torrent not just today and yesterday?

Thanks

RSS feed on a torrent tracker contains a lot of files submitted each day. If you want to see a week or more you'll need to modify the default feed:

https://www.nyaa.se/?page=rss&cats=1_37&filter=1&term=HorribleSubs%201080p

This fetches only HorribleSubs 1080p torrents. Obviously you won't be able to use Taiga to download anything except HorribleSubs 1080p.

The alternative is to use an RSS aggregator like rssmix.com for example, see https://github.com/erengy/taiga/issues/378#issuecomment-280922533

Oh I get it.. thanks so much. I'm kinda new to RSS so I didn't know that we can mix a bunch of rss.

I'm just into BDRip and DVDRip release. THANKS SO MUCH :D

BTW I'm not sure if my rssmix is right.

RSS feeds return the most recent content by default. This is generally how they're intended to work. Some feeds allow pagination or other query parameters to display older items, but most of them don't.

For instance, as you may have noticed from the list of default RSS feeds at Settings → Torrents → Discovery, only NyaaTorrents allows searching for older releases. Tokyo Toshokan and the others don't have this functionality. Similarly, it's possible to append &offset=2, &offset=3 and so on to the URL to see earlier releases. But again, as far as I'm aware, only NyaaTorrents supports this.

For the future, I see two improvements I could make to Taiga's aggregator in this context:

For now, the only way to see torrents beyond any limit is to manually search for them.

That would be great. But why don't you just enable the torrent checking by default? There's no much different on disable and enable. If there's just a way to make a date and time checking on discovery it will be great. But it seems it's impossible.

@morizuki, nyaa supports | and - operators so your query on the site could be BDRip | DVDRip which translates to BDRip%7CDVDRip in Taiga's feed settings.

@tophf ohhh.. I didn't know that. Thanks for that.
