    V1.9 Super Progressive Web Apps. I am having some issues, the user is not propted to install the web app, and Google reports the Service Worker does not serve the manifest’s start URL.

    Google Lighthouse Audit shows
    1. Does not respond with a 200 when offline
    If you’re building a Progressive Web App, consider using a service worker so that your app can work offline. Learn more.
    2. User will not be prompted to Install the Web App
    Failures: Service worker does not successfully serve the manifest’s start_url, Timed out waiting for fetched start_url.

    Manifest is as follows
    {“name”:”Oregon Fuel Injection”,”short_name”:”OFI”,”description”:”Diesel Parts”,”icons”:[{“src”:”https:\/\/oregonfuelinjection.com\/content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ofi-logo-192×192.png”,”sizes”:”192×192″,”type”:”image\/png”},{“src”:”https:\/\/oregonfuelinjection.com\/content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/OFI_Master_Logo-512×512.png”,”sizes”:”512×512″,”type”:”image\/png”}],”background_color”:”#8f979e”,”theme_color”:”#024927″,”display”:”standalone”,”orientation”:”portrait”,”start_url”:”\/”,”scope”:”\/wp\/”}

    Could you point me in the correct direct to fix the issues.

    Thank You, Mark

  • Hello Mark,

    Good day to you and thanks for using SuperPWA. Over your website, I noticed that the website files are within a sub-folder called wp. Upon our plugin we check the root of WordPress and PWA works based on that. Due to that our plugin won’t work on websites whose files are within a sub-folder and redirects to root of domain.

    We’re planning to work for a solution that helps people like you to enjoy the PWA. If anything comes up in future we will let you know.

    Hello @gotchall

    Can you give the latest version a try? If the service worker and manifest are dynamic (which it will be if the web server allows it and no caching plugins are installed), then sub-folder installs are now supported.

    Looking forward to your feedback.

    The latest update should take care of it.

    Please exclude the service worker file from WP Rocket JS combination as well.

    Thank You, I will have my webmaster make the changes and retry.
