As of 2 days ago Dilbert Plasmoid was not displaying the comics once again: it seems that they changed slightly the data-url value referenced into pageRetrieved function
var re = new RegExp("data-url=\"https://dilbert.com/strip/(\\d{4}-\\d{2}-\\d{2})\"");
adding a ".*" at the end suffice to match again the data contained into the data-url:
var re = new RegExp("data-url=\"https://dilbert.com/strip/(\\d{4}-\\d{2}-\\d{2}).*\"");
Thank you again for your work, mfuchs!

9 Since a week Dilbert comisw was not functioning at all, then i discovered that the 'meta property="og:image" ..'. tag was returning an http link instead of an https type, so i added after row 50 of main.es thil line ad all goes ok once again:
url = url.replace("http:", "https:");
I hope that can help!

Working version: https://github.com/aaccioly/plasma-comic-dilbert/releases/tag/2018-11-26
KDE 5 users should install it with: kpackagetool5 -i dilbert.comic
I'm also opening a PR to @camerongray's repo.

Please also correct "http:/" to "https:/" to get the to date picture and prevent a plasmashell crash

I have created an updated version of the plugin to support the changes to Dilbert.com that were made in January 2015.

Hi,
Thanks for writing this!
I changed two lines in the code to get the strip in higher quality:

Line 47: var re = new RegExp("<img src=\"(/dyn/str_strip/[0-9/]+/[0-9]+\\.strip)(\\.print)(\\.gif)\"");
Line 51: url = "http://dilbert.com/" + match[1] + ".zoom" + match[3];
