Feed settings: fetch full articles based on filter rules #313

Maybe I am missing something obvious in the GUI.. it would be nice to filter which articles will be fully fetched.

Maybe add additional FULL-FETCH and FULL-NOFETCH as filter rule actions?

yanus171 commented 5 years ago

There is a checkbox in feed settings to load or not full articles for a particular feed

xandro0777 commented 5 years ago

Yes but I want to decide per article based on filter rules

yanus171 commented 5 years ago

I am afraid it would increase to much the complexity of refresh logic to user. Does it really matter if you load full text for several articles you would never read?

Otherwise I think there is a sense to make such a filter for loading all article images

xandro0777 commented 5 years ago

Please see above suggestion, in addition to ACCEPT/REJECT there could be FULL-FETCH/NO-FULL-FETCH rules in the filter rules overriding the "load full articles" checkbox on a per article basis.

Would not seem more complicated for the user than current interface?

Whether a few articles more matter .. very much depends on the feed.
