Am I doing something wrong here or is the config file having issues parsing windowrule variables?

[buildershedd]

Hello, I'm trying to set a windowrule for alacritty for opacity and it's giving me the error of Invalid rule: match:class alacritty, opacity 0.5, Invalid parameter: opacity 0.5.

I ready the wiki page on this and this appears to be standard syntax and use and I haven't found any to the contrary online with no forums or anything yielding a proper response to this.

the wiki is versioned, and on git by default.

[buildershedd]

Well, my main issue is the error I'm getting. I'm using correct syntax per the wiki yet it isn't working.

[vaxerski]

you are on a release, and reading the git wiki. This is not the correct syntax because you're on the wrong wiki version.

For reference, this is the wiki I'm using.

[ItsOhen]

Which is the wrong one. Read the front page of the wiki. Find the select version button, click 0.52

[buildershedd]

Thank you, I have no clue why the latest-git branch on the wiki is behind multitudes of versions behind the latest release.

[ItsOhen]

Not behind. Ahead.
