Bug description

--add-css-theme flag does nothing: it only displays the dialog window, once selected, webcord doesn't start.

Additional context

There's nothing more to say, i tried to change the rules of flatpak for webcord, but it stopped working.

This is intended behavior; there should be no extra WebCord instance running after you add CSS theme. It is expected WebCord is already running or you'll start WebCord after you've added a CSS theme.

is it normal if it just hangs after selecting the theme ?
I must CTRL+C out of webcord...

[SpidFightFR]

my bad, it actually loads for a bit before closing, but the themes don't apply, it's weird...

[SpacingBat3]

I've noticed that hiding side bar doesn't work either and WebCord's using the same API in Electron to apply any CSS mods in there, so either Electron got another regression (that would be 3rd time in row 😯) or Discord updated stuff like classes breaking themes.

[SpacingBat3]

(In both cases, #481 is probably related to this as well.)

[SpacingBat3]

Yep, Discord most likely just broke most CSS themes just by changing the hypen to underscore in names of the CSS classes. I'll close this issue ticket since that's not WebCord's fault.
