Only getting decorations in XWayland windows #23

I've been trying to get firedecor working on my Arch setup.

I've installed wayfire-gitAUR and wayfire-firedecor-gitAUR, but as the latter seems to be broken currently (did not actually install firedecor), I then installed firedecor manually from source, which seems to have gone as expected (/usr/lib/wayfire/libfiredecor.so is now installed along side all of my other plugins).

I updated my config to add firedecor at the end of the plugins list. It does not include any other decoration plugins, and I added the default [firedecor] section for good measure.

Despite all of this, when I launch wayfire, I get no errors involving firedecor and no decorations. Is there something else I've neglected to do?

EDIT: So I left firedecor enabled and after using it for a while, I finally opened an X app and realized that i'm actually getting decorations, but only on XWayland windows.

OK, I figured it out... I forgot to set core.preferred_decoration_mode to server. Mea culpa.
