whatsapp-web.js [MD] Issues with Buttons and Lists

Bug description

When Whatsapp-Web is opened visibly pointed at Headless, all messages disappear when a button message is sent as a reply, this does not happen with messages of any other type, only with button messages. In App Whatsapp it works normally. This problem occurs in both WA-Business and WA-Conventional.

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to fill out this bug report, but sadly, this bug that you seem to be facing is not linked to whatsapp-web.js (from the data you have given me as well as the data I know of), and is just another WhatsApp Web bug..

Same Here on multidevice

Anyone working on this, or it's not fixable?

Feb 04 '22 16:02 user3470

Anyone working on this? please. My app depends on it due to forced Whatsapp update to multi device.

How do I switch back if anyone know?

Thanks, it's nice not to have another phone always online anyway. I wish I know where to begin for a PR :( I really really need this.

Console Error

The issue here is that we will have to modify whatsapp's own source code then distribute which is copyright infringement and could get this project out for good..

I'll look about other ways around this, but they aren't so elegant.

Any news?

No problem at all. If you know somehow how o do that even if it is ugly, no problem.

For anyone looking in which old version still works, as @ARKbr link expired.

I searched (any apk website) and tested couple WA versions, and found that the Business 2.22.9.78 version, the buttons still works as im using it now with no problem yet.

I still couldn't get it to work even with this version I'm using LocalAuth

and the part of the buttons is like this:

msg.reply(new Buttons("teste", [{id: "event_yes", body: "Confirmar presença ✅"}, {id: "event_no", body: "Não participar ❌"}], `Olá! Evento novo do SharkRunners`, "Selecione uma opção"));

Hello everyone, I am testing the example.js file and found that the Buttons and List still not working with WA Business MD!

Is there any patch available or an example where Buttons and List work correctly?

Here I leave the lines of the example.js file from line 187:

} else if (msg.body === '!buttons') {
    let button = new Buttons('Button body',[{body:'bt1'},{body:'bt2'},{body:'bt3'}],'title','footer');
    client.sendMessage(msg.from, button);
} else if (msg.body === '!list') {
    let sections = [{title:'sectionTitle',rows:[{title:'ListItem1', description: 'desc'},{title:'ListItem2'}]}];
    let list = new List('List body','btnText',sections,'Title','footer');
    client.sendMessage(msg.from, list);

Any kind of help will be appreciate!

Thanks!!
