No starts URL to fetch, No usable manifest found

    Hi,
    Thanks for the super plugin. Last few days I am trying to configure super PWA but without success.

    The reason I am guessing is that my wordpress is installed in a sub-directory /eshop/
    The site URL and WordPress installation URL is different. Lighthouse reports that the service worker can not find the manifest in the root folder, where as the manifest is under the sub-folder /eshop/.

    Can you tell me if it can be fixed by manually editing any files?

    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Manifest:

    Manifest URL: https://www.****.com/eshop/superpwa-manifest.json
    JSON parsed successfully.
    Parsed name property is: Peak69
    Parsed short_name property is: Peak69
    Parsed start_url property is: /
    Parsed display property is: standalone
    Parsed orientation property is: portrait
    Parsed icons property is: [

    },

    }
    ]

    Additional note: I had Onesignal but I have disabled them for time being. Cloudflare also in development mode with cache cleared.

    Hello Fazlay,

    Sorry for the delayed reply. My name is Arun. Thanks for checking out SuperPWA and for the kind words.

    As you said, this looks like your WordPress is in the folder. This is a known issue right now and we are working towards a solution.

    Manual fix is not easy right now. You can move the manifest and service workers to the root and update the links in the source manually.

    My advise is to wait for the upcoming version.

    Hello Arun,
    Thanks for the confirmation about sub-folder installation issue. Couldn’t resist myself to use this super plugin, so moved my site to the root and its working perfectly.

    Next: will try to add AMP also for blog post and see how it works together with PWA. Any suggestion is welcome.

    Thank you so much.

    Hello Fazlay,

    That is an awesome decision and I have to say its flattering to hear this!

    Next: will try to add AMP also for blog post and see how it works together with PWA. Any suggestion is welcome.

    SuperPWA is compatible with 5 major AMP plugins, so all the major ones. You can use the AMP page as the start page.

    Soon visitors to your AMP page on mobile will also receive the Add to Home Screen prompt. Hopefully in the coming update, so keep and eye out for that!

    Hope you enjoy your PWA!
