Very briefly a scroll bar appears on the right side of the widget just after loading. If I try to scroll thecwhole dashboard moves. I have a Google maps web widget next to it and his scroll function works.

@Rogier_Verheugen i’ll have a look.  
The google map widget is probably an web url. So it’s a web page. That’s different from app widgets

Hi @martijnpoppen ,

Just switching from one topic to an other 😉

I was wondering if your code on GitHub is the latest? I was wondering if I could try and get @mentions to work in your application.

If I can make it work, i will or create a pull request or send you my changes.

Greets,  
Frank

PS: If it is not the latest code and you don’t want to share the latest version, i am all oke with that too. Then I need to forget about mentions in messages 😉

Hey @Frekel  
Yes code is the latest however it doesn’t contain my custom written api for the baileys package

Next to that I already tried once to get it working but it doesn’t really.

Maybe you could use the text contains card?

Feel free to check it out

@Michael_Zimmer did you add whatsapp to Homey via the Add Devices section? Or did you just install the app and tried to connect the widget?

Hi @martijnpoppen,

I was looking at this package:  
[Mentions](https://wwebjs.dev/guide/creating-your-bot/mentions.html#sending-messages-with-user-mentions) and [How to mention in a group using the WhatsApp API?](https://blog.ultramsg.com/create-mention-in-group-using-whatsapp-api/)

It looks like adding `mentions` are extra post var. I was looking in your code to see where you actually did the call, but now I know why I couldn’t find it 😉

I will checkout the baileys package and see if I can see some starting points!
