Send File Did not Working

[Yohanes-arch]

Hi, so just straightforward, the send_file function did not work for me, it just showed the previews of the file but didn't send the file Here is the screenshot

The process stops right here and nothing happens when I keep waiting. This happens when I use the CLI, but the send_message is working properly. Then I tried this command through a python script, but both didn't work.

Same issue here. It stops and waits when it has to click and send the picture or video. Never had that problem but since a week or so this happens. Could it be the chrome driver version upgrade recently?

from alright import WhatsApp messenger = WhatsApp() numbers = ['+31xxxxxxxxx'] for number in numbers: messenger.find_user(number)

messenger.send_picture(
    "/Users/newfolder/Epex_Michel.png",'day-ahead prices')

This is where it stops:

And this is the output:

Btw. Messages are working fine.

Hope you can help

Me too same problem, also tried with keyboard or pyautogui to press enter, but not sending images

[FrancescoLucarini]

Any update or someone knows another solution?

[farcas]

Same for me. Any progress?

[dellinfa]

same problem for me with send_picture. @Kalebu any suggestion?

Yes, I am facing the same issue. I think the XPath of the text box and the sent button have to be modified to the updated version of google chrome. Because the text send_message function is working perfectly.

[dellinfa]

harry It's the same for me. Send_message work perfectly..

For all, see the pull request "xpath fix: send_picture xpaths updated" to solve the problem!

By the way, how are you guys even sending a message when find contact isn't working. Or does it work for you?

Hello, @farcas @dellinfa @allesman @FrancescoLucarini @Yohanes-arch @harry-py-bot

web.whatsapp.com has changed html structure recently, that's why a modification needed in the code, You can replace init.py of alright code with the updated document in the attachment, It works for sending messages, attachments and pictures. I haven't tried other functions by the way. Hope it helps. Best regards... init.zip

Thank you for this @aeris07, I launched a product on early April I have been crazy busy

Will replace the code in the main repository and then push it to PyPI.
