dilbert.com feed changed; images not in articles anymore

his · 07-09-2013, 05:37 PM

Hi,

I just wanted to let you know that dilbert.com changed it's feed some days ago. The images aren't linked in the feed anymore, all you get is a dry message: "Dilbert readers - Please visit Dilbert.com to read this feature. Due to changes with our feeds, we are now making this RSS feed a link to Dilbert.com."

So the (0.9.38) recipe either needs to be updated or removed... does Calibre deliver recipes with the distribution that fetch images from a site? I guess this may be problematic in some legislations (whereas an offline feed reader can't be a problem).

Thanks.

You could try using the Arcamax recipe. The default version is set up to pull Dilbert and several other comics. If you don't want the others, just comment them out of the recipe.
