Notification count not working since last whatsapp update

[dcferreira]

Whatsapp web was recently updated (1 or 2 days ago), and since then the notification count does not work any longer.

It seems that replacing
const elements = document.querySelectorAll('.CxUIE, .unread, ._0LqQ');
by
const elements = document.querySelectorAll('._31gEB');
fixes it, or at least it did in my case.

Can confirm. I didn't test changing all the selectors to ' ._31gEB' tho.
This is my PR: #14

Well, i don't know if it's related, by since yesterday i get the indication of 2 unread messages, that are showing up only in FRANZ (do not show up in whatsApp WEB via browser!)

FERDIUM had a similar problem: ferdium/ferdium-app#766

Should i open a new issue?

Same issue here since end of August (last update?).
Three different Whatsapp account. Tried new Franz installation on clean computer with new Franz account. Always unread messages where there are none!
Didn't get any answer by mail.

Going back to recipe-whatsapp 1.0.36 (previous version of webview.js) fixes it. The unread message badge fix is obviously faulty!

Sadly, i gave up on FRANZ and moved to FERDIUM... (and I'm glad i did)

@marcolopes
Thank you. Gave Ferdium a try. Looking good so far.
