AppMySite App + This Plugin

    Hello,
    Thank you for developing this wonderful plugin.
    I have a question: I’ve used AppMySite to create mobile apps (iOS and Android) for my website.
    Basically, it’s a webview that embeds the website and includes a few buttons at the bottom of the interface.
    I have set up Firebase to send push notifications to all the subscribed users who have activated push notifications for the app and it works.
    My question is: Could I use this Firebase configuration to connect it with your plugin? It would be great if I can send push notifications to the users. The site runs with BuddyBoss (a fork of BuddyPress) and it would be great if users could receive notifications based on their activity or their friends’.

    Thank you again 🙂
    Best

    This plugin has API feature to send subscribed token to WordPress website from mobile app, so that whenever new activity/comments/group activity/messages in BuddyPress it will send notifications to subscribed tokens using Firebase.
    I am not sure how BuddyBoss was designed, this plugin is designed to trigger push notification based on BuddyPress hooks for example bp_activity_posted_update action hook which will trigger after activity is posted, similarly i am not sure how BuddyBoss was designed and its hooks. If hooks are varying then it requires custom coding in this plugin to include all hooks from BuddyBoss which are triggered at the end of activities,comments,messages,group activities posted.
    To send subscriber token to backend WordPress site from app, please follow the procedure in help link mentioned in mobile app tab in this plugin settings admin area.
    Also I am not sure which language/framework was used to create app with webview, i have given example for Flutter app and for Kotlin language procedure how to encrypt token before sending to this plugin, similarly we need to follow same logic in if app was designed using other frameworks like reactjs/react native or other languages

    In addition to my previous reply, I have also read buddyboss documentation today, it is also using same hooks, so I think using this plugin’s API, we can connect WebView and WordPress site to send subscribers push notification token to backend and whenever new activity is published it will trigger notification according to plugin settings

    Hello, I am also thinking of using this with Buddyboss but I am having problems. I have all the correct information from Firebase but notifications do not seem to work.

    Could someone assist?

    Elpady, how was your experience with this plugin?

    Please let me know console log messages when using this plugin along with BuddyBoss or please let me know your site link?. If BuddyBoss uses same hook like BuddyPress when activity is posted then it will trigger push notification

    I found plugin service worker is not active in your website , it means plugin is not activated, it is not listed in sources (in chrome browser -> more tools -> developer tools -> application tab -> check for service worker pnfpb_icpush_pwa_sw.js and similarly under sources tab, it should list plugin javascripts). I sent more details with screenshots to you in email, Please check your email for more details. I also want to inform that this plugin is designed based on BuddyPress. So I am not sure how BuddyBoss was designed, if BuddyBoss uses same logic hooks like same as BuddyPress then this plugin will work after it is activated using its service worker as I mentioned above.

    @aquariumnetwork22
    Since your server is based on NGINX, it is not creating dynamic service worker file, In order to resolve this, please follow below steps.
    Download 1.42 version latest version of plugin released on Nov 27th 2022
    go to plugin settings area for NGINX server/hosting to enable/disable static push notification service worker file and for PWA manifest json files.
    For NGINX based server, if static files are served directly by NGINX instead of apache then to create static dynamic push notification and PWA manifest json files in root folder, i have added new option in plugin settings area to create required static files (service worker file and PWA manifest json file) in your root folder automatically for push notification and for PWA.
