Reconnect timeout on conflict
Two new options have been added to be able to reconnect the client when a conflict occurs due to another browser opening WhatsApp Web:
takeoverOnConflict- (default false) If true will take control of the session after "takeoverTimeoutMs". If false, has same functionality as before where the client will disconnect.takeoverTimeoutMs- (default 0) indicates how long it will wait before trying to takeover. By default it takes over right away (0), but you can set for example 10000 to takeover after 10 seconds.
Presence
You can now indicate the client is online by using client.sendPresenceAvailable. This only lasts for a couple seconds.
Link previews
By default, link previews will now be included. This means that when a link is present in a message, it will look like this:
If you don't want this, you can disable it by sending linkPreview: false as an option when sending a message.
