Explain the Problem Atom 1.0 allows entries to have multiple authors by providing multiple <author></author> blocks. However, when there are multiple authors, the Nextcloud News app only shows the LAST author. The News app should either list all authors, or as a worst case scenario, only provide the FIRST author. Steps to Reproduce Create an RSS entry with multiple Authors. Open the post in the Nextcloud News reader and you will see that it says "by Last Author Name".

Steps to Reproduce Explain what you did to encounter the issue Add any feed with magnet links Links of title are malformed. Clicking on them causes browser to load new tab which fails to reach anything instead of handing over to the designated magnet: link handler System Information News app version: 28.6.0 (
