How to use nnrss-ignore-article-fields

[Stefan Huchler]

I think nnrss-ignore-article-fields is documented to bad. I am not a
total pro emacs user and I am even worse (e)lisp programmer but it
should not be so hard to understand this.

I use rss for youtube feeds and nearly every hour I get 10 old feeds
that I marked as read already again.

It was even hard to find this variable as most likely the mechanism to
stop this.

Then I had to look into the source-code and find a post somewhere that
says that you have to raise the gnus-verbose level to 10 to see output
with what u can maybe find the fields you could put into that.


But even with that it seems that I dont understand what I have to
ignore.


A example output looks like that:

"nnrss: Making hash index of (item nil (guid ((isPermaLink . "false"))
"tag:youtube.com,2008:video:Zx5W7faSEJI") (pubDate nil "Fri, 24 Jan 2014
06:04:18 +0000") (atom:updated nil "2014-01-24T06:21:20.000Z") (category
((domain . "http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind";))
"http://gdata.youtube.com/schemas/2007#video";) (title nil "Tendresse for
Ten | BSD Now 21") (description nil "<div...  [[shortened]] ...</div>")
(link nil
"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx5W7faSEJI&feature=youtube_gdata";)
(author nil "Jupiter Broadcasting"))"


I set and evaluated following list:

(setq nnrss-ignore-article-fields '(slash:comments description atom:updated 
category title item tag))

but it did not prevent re-appearences of such articles.


I would love to get some help.
