Hey guys,

I created the original fix.

And now I share another way to use whatsapp web on nativefier. No code injection required.

Pressing ctrl+shift+i (on Linux) and the Devtools window will open. Then click on Application -> Service Workers And check the option Bypass for network.

Now press ctrl+r to reload. And ctrl+shift+i to close the Devtools.

Whenever you open your whatsapp the problem will occur, but since the Bypass for network option has already been enabled, you only need to press ctrl+shift+i (open devtools), ctrl+r (reload), ctrl+shift+i (close devtools)

@frealgagu, thanks for your work. This package was in my list as one of required apps to be installed after install Arch. I saw your last update ( document.querySelector("a[href='https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95414']") ), NICE/GREAT/GOOD!

Another way to do the same in 2 lines: document.querySelector("a[href='https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95414']") && navigator.serviceWorker.getRegistration().then(r => r.unregister() && document.location.reload());

I get an "update available" message every time I start the program, even when rebuilding the package.

@Exeleration-G Nativefier creates an embeeded application so it's not possible to remove the tray once the application is created. If you want to remove the tray icon you need to remove the --tray line in PKGBUILD before execute makepkg (or edit it with your AUR helper if it has the capability).

Exeleration-G commented on 2018-12-27 12:15 (UTC)

I dislike the tray icon. Any way to make it minimize like a normal application?

@bionade24 Unfortunately whatsapp-web-desktop is not working and @tembleking has not attended, so this is an alternative, possibly we could merge but meanwhile this package will contain the necessary fix to work.

Why have you made new one instead of contributing to the existing whatsapp-web-desktop package?

frealgagu commented on 2018-12-19 11:41 (UTC)

It's strange, I'm using KDE Plasma also and the icon is shown OK. I'll try to add more icon sizes this weekend to see of it solves those issues.

Thanks for this. I use KDE-Plasma and my system-tray icon is completly oversized, like i only see a green square. Has someone a way to fix this?

frealgagu commented on 2018-12-15 23:14 (UTC)

@rplanchuelo I don't know how to achieve this with nativefier, the version in electron made in https://github.com/Enrico204/Whatsapp-Desktop which contain those features was abandoned.

rplanchuelo commented on 2018-12-15 10:18 (UTC)

Thanks. It's great. It would be interesting to include all the options of "new message" notifications (red dot in system tray icon)
