[Feature suggestion] Adding an org-publish sitemap format entry function #5
Description
Hello,
When publishing a website with Org-mode, it is possible to use the org-publish feature. It make possible to export a directory of org-mode files into HTML files. Org-publish can also build a sitemap of the published web pages. This sitemap can be sorted, and it's entry can be formatted with a function.
In the case of a blog, a user can have a directory where each org-mode document is a blog post and use this sitemap feature to create a blog index that list all the posts.
It would be nice to have a function for the sitemap entry formatting, that will generate an Org-mode headline in the format needed by ox-rss. This headline could have:
- The post title, as a clickable link to the post page
- The post author as a headline property (in the format used by
ox-rss) - The post publication date as a headline property (in the format used by
ox-rss) - A permalink as a headline property (in the format used by
ox-rss) that lead to the post page

I thank you for your interest in the project! It's really great to see others using org-mode to blog. The fact that blog articles continue to function as both blogs and my own notes (to be continuously updated) is the killer feature. Gardening vs dead tree imo. But I digress.
I currently don't use this project anymore, I've moved onto https://gitlab.com/ambrevar/emacs-webfeeder which works better for me. If it's of any interest my config is here: https://www.bhw.name/assets/blog/dotspacemacs.html#Org-Publish-Config
If you would like to take over ownership of the repo, please let me know here and we can point the MELPA recipe to the appropriate place. Pull requests are also welcome of course.

I had used
emacs-webfeeder, but I have stopped. I don't remember why.I would be very interested to submit pull request or take over the ownership of the repo. Right now, I'm very busy with my diploma work until mid-September. But I will think of it when I can.

Hello. I'm back, after finished my diploma work.
What do you prefer: I submit pull requests ? Or do I take the ownership of the repo ?

Hello. Sorry for the late reply. I was sick.
So, I am started to rewrite the README to include a documentation, but I start to think I need to write an info manual.
If you want to see the new README, you can check it on the Codeberg repo:
https://codeberg.org/cyberfox010101/ox-rss/src/branch/master/README.org
If I move the dev on Codeberg, what do you prefer for this Github repo ? Do I close it, or make in a mirror of the Codeberg one ?
