Missing articles in feed

If one article contains (with same article IDs) in multiple feeds then this article presents in only one feed in the TT-RSS interface and missing in other feeds.

This behavior is an issue if you subscribe an news aggregator like news . ycombinator . com

Is it possible to avoid this behavior?

article Globally Unique ID is supposed to be Globally Unique.

don’t subscribe to broken feeds and/or write a plugin to fix them.

Do you really want to spam yourself with multiple copies of the same article?

Or are you saying their GUID isn’t really a UID? A plugin to prefix the non-GUID w/ a source name/id could fix that. Or better yet, get the source to comply w/ the standard.

my personal opinion is that in this situation (resyndication) it makes sense to change source GUIDs, which is what tt-rss does.

Sorry I’m not sure about GUIDs but I have an example

Article from the original feed:

<item>
  <title>Some title</title>
  <link>https://www.example.com/path/to/article</link>
  <pubDate>Fri, 28 Feb 2020 10:20:00 +0000</pubDate>
  <guid>https://www.example.com/path/to/article</guid>
  <description>...</description>
</item>

Article from the news aggregator:

<item>
    <title>Some title</title>
    <link>https://www.example.com/path/to/article</link>
    <pubDate>Mon, 02 Mar 2020 02:46:03 +0000</pubDate>

    <![CDATA[<a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12345">Comments</a>]]>
    </description>
</item>

I think in this item GUID is the link tag value, right?

Thank you

It’s better for me than “miss” article from original feed

Thank you

No, the GUID is <guid>; however, if it is missing TT-RSS will take the value of <link>. Because of the way these feeds are structured (the aggregator is missing the GUID) it appears to be the same article to TT-RSS.

write a plugin which would add proper GUIDs to the ycombinator feed

for a technology enthusiast subscribing to Hacker News a simple thing like that shouldn’t take more than a few minutes
