Unable to download full articles (only get headlines) #122

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. add the following RSS feed (for example)
http://rss1.mediafed.com/feed/foolcouk/investments
2. then try and ready the articles -> can only see headlines not the 
entire article; I have to click on 'Link to Article' to see the article; 
which opens Opera and needs users to be connected to the internet; which 
is not realistic as most users use this on offline mode.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Although above is normal behavior for ALL news reader - it would be GREAT 
and pioneering if prssr could download the entire article in these 
scenarios (and other situations where the article might be multipage)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.4.3

Please provide any additional information below.
Great software - but having this additional feature would make prssr my 
default and only news reader instead of spb insight

Did you set offline caching for the feed (in the channel properties)?

I tried that and no luck. One of the feeds is 
http://rss1.mediafed.com/feed/foolcouk/investments .. I only get the headline 
but 
not the article. when I click on 'Link to the article' prssreader opens Opera 
and 
uses my data connection to download the article.

I subscribed to that feed, updated it, cached the first article. If I open the
article in pRSSreader I see the headline and the begining of the article 
(couple of
sentences). Clicking the 'Link to the article' pRSSreader open PIE and show the
cached HTML page. So it works for me as supposed.

Now, are you complaining about not showing the cached page directly in the 
pRSSreader
(not yet done -> enhancement). Or that Opera is not able to used the cached 
page (if
the 'Link to the article' is shown in the bold, it means the page is cached)? 
There
were some issue that Opera has problems if the pRSSreader's cache was located 
on the
file path that contained a space. Is that your case? Could you try PIE instaed 
of
Opera, just for this case?
