export to HTML including Media about whatsapp_chat_dump HOT 8 OPEN

What I mean, is that WhatsApp stores group chats in a way that is a bit harder to extract than DMs. Nevertheless I might have found a fix for it, which will be implemented along with the other feature requests.

I'll be looking into it. For now, what type of file are you using the script on?

my WhatsApp Export Directory. Would be really great to show all the media files as well, including working Hyperlinks.

Alright, I'm working on a rewrite, I'll get back to you, as soon as I have an update. What exactly do you mean with hyperlinks? Something like a main page with links to each chat?

If you look at my group chat, then the group chat contains many links, Videos, Youtube-URLs, images, Links to News-Paper articles. These links should all work and if possible the media should be embedded in the PDF.

I see. I'll definitely add this, as this is something I wanted to implement as well. Apart from that, I'm working on other export formats like JSON etc.
Apart from that, I still have to find a way to properly export group chats, since they are quite messed up.

why are Group-Chats messed up? The media Files are all exported. What is most important is, that the Hyperlinks work and the images show inline.

this would be really great, as I have so far not found a functioning OpenSource Software that does a good job visualising exported WhatsApp Group chats.
