[EN] App Indicators / Icons not showing up on system tray
« on: 2025/01/30, 03:08:05 »
I installed Siduction Linux with XFCE a few days ago and noticed that my system tray on my xfce panel only shows the WiFi icon (sometimes Bluetooth icon too), but never background apps like Discord or Flameshot.

On my previous Linux distro (MX Linux, based on Debian Stable), those icons appeared without issues. I tried different panels/docks like Polybar, Tint2, and Stalonetray, but they all have the same problem—only the WiFi icon shows up on the systray. So, i think the problem is not on my xfce panel.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on how to fix it?

Thanks!

Open Settings>>Panel>>items and see if you have the Status Tray Plugin installed. Depending on what app you use you may need another panel plug in.
I AM CANADIAN!

Status Tray Plugin is installed and turned on. As I said before, I think the problem is not on xfce panel, because I already tried other panel/dock/bar alternatives.
