[ALTERNATIVE FORK] Stopped working on version 0.4.2080 for Windows / 0.4.2081 for macOS

[Felluz]

I opened the app this morning and saw that it was back to the default theme, then I unzipped the files to apply the dark theme, after completing that was the result. I've tried all themes but none work, it stays the same.

Are you able to switch themes on-the-fly w/ the switcher button, next to your profile photo?

no, the button disappeared as you can see in the screenshot.

Also broken for me since this morning, presumably due to latest WhatsApp update. (macOS Catalina)

[iambudi]

Broken in Catalina as well.

[SixSiege]

Same here (version 0.4.2081)

[Reycho]

Same here (Windows 10) But mines worse.

WORKAROUND: The following attachment enables the official dark theme as a temporary replacement. Replace the index.html files on the following path with the provided one:

0.4.2080-Workaround.zip
Windows: WADark-Windows > styles > win32
macOS: WADark-macOS > styles > darwin

Apply using the "default" theme on the GUI installer.

By using any image editor such as Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, Pixelmator etc.

I confirm it stopped working also on macOS

Can confirm that it stopped working on Windows 10. Reinstalling (both whatsapp and the dark theme) didn't help.

Can also confirm that the workaround by @UnderEu works.
