Android Push Notifications support forum

Post any problems you have using my Android push module here.

but with your mod... user also have to install the server push notification app on their android device?

the app cost 5$ so i dont think many user will pay for that...

Hi,

The APP should be 3,8 US$ if google calculated from € to US$ correctly. Do you think it is better to ask for 20-30 US$ here as a Dolphin exclusive mod including the APP? The mod itself is free. Now the APP can be used for endless other things too instead of only dolphin. I use it by myself for lots things and developed it in the first place because i got tired checking my moderated dolphin site for new postings, new users, transactions and so on. With the provided API you can send any information you want from your server and every software to you mobile phone too. So its not bound to dolphin alone anymore. This is not a dolphin only APP!

yes but the point is that Push notification was also for my member who use my rebranded android app for my dolphin website... so if i want they have push notification... they will need to pay the apps? so its not a universal push mod... but a specific push that can be use only by ONE account? thats right?

I really dont know what you mean maybe you just dont get it.

- The app is for admins, geeks and also dolphin owners and not for members of a website like you think. They can be informed about critical server states, events in software or anything else. Now with tasker support you even can react automatically to different types of notifications incoming.

- This module is free and can be installed by anybody running a dolphin website.

- The app is not designed only for a dolphin website, it can do much much more. It started to be my own app for my own needs, then i added dolphin support (I planned to release a dolphin admin mod including an app, not a member app!) but it has grown so big that i went a different path. It would be a waste to stop at dolphin and sell it here for 10, 20 or 30 US$ only providing the basic hooks into the core. Now it is open for everybody, also for other mods. Fact is it costs now only 3,8 US$ instead of the usual prices for mods here and it is not only bound do dolphin anymore. And lots more is coming soon.

The whole project is a full notification system with an own API now (you not want to know the infrastructure behind this) and no matter if somebody needs it or not i wrote it for myself, but you think 3,8 US$ is much while lots silly mods here cost 40$ developed in some days? I already save 90% of my time sitting in front of my admin panel checking my dolphin sites and other things the whole day.

Edit: I wrote it clearly in the description now, this is for admins not for members, maybe it was also my fault. I think now its clear :)

Updated mod to version 1.0.1

- Fixed a small message encryption bug

Updated mod to version 1.0.4

- Added new parameter to override category in module settings. If you want to assign every message to a different category in the APP you can now use the $Type parameter to specify the ID you wish the notification to appear in the APP. If you use $Type=0 the modules setting for the category will be used.

$result = BxDolService::call('AndroPush', 'PushNotification', array($Type, $Flags, $Encrypt, $PushService, $PushTitle, $PushMessage));

Example:

$result = BxDolService::call('AndroPush', 'PushNotification', array(3, 0, 0, "Dolphin", "My first cloud message", "Welcome to Dolphin Push Notifications"));
