Issue #1
The author's name is incorrect.
- Elian Doran
- Hello, thank you for your spirit of observation.
The author name is read via metadata, and in the parsing process the HTML character entities are not converted to their Unicode representation.
Unless the IV developers implement an option similar to @urldecode, but decoding HTML entities instead, there is currently no solution I am aware of.
Of course, entity-encoded characters are only present for character that need them, in this case the Russian alphabet. If one is to copy the string of character displayed as author and put them into a decode tool, it would result in "Калей Роджерс".
Metadata is the best way to obtain author information because it is the most accurate.
Note to admin: Please forward my suggestion of @entitydecode, or something similar, to IV developers. It would be great. Thanks

- Thank you for the suggestion. It may be added in future, but while there's no way to parse the author name perfectly, it is better not to do it. If a function like @entitydecode is added, the template will still require a rework to use it here.
