I recently started up FreshRSS in my docker environment. I was super excited about the web scraping feature.

Now that I’m setting it up, it looks like that it is able to scrape single web pages, but I am unable to figure out how to get it to crawl into the actual article to scrape the full content.

Is anyone aware of how to do this. For example, runescape.com/m=news/ This page has a list of articles with a thumbnail, title, category, date, and a short description of the article. Would it be possible for FreshRSS to crawl into the article link and scrape the contents within?

    It is definitely possible, as RSS readers like ReadYou can do it. Maybe try FreshRSS in conjuction with an RSS reader?
