📌: This is currently only available on the WPMN community with testing purposes.

Shahjahan Jewel

We are testing this on live :P You should get a push notification (if you are not active on this tab).

Jorge de los Reyes

Shahjahan Jewel Awesome news!

Shahjahan Jewel

@jorgedelosreyes. Got in app notification!

Jorge de los Reyes

Shahjahan Jewel LOVE IT! 👏🏻

Shahjahan Jewel

Jorge de los Reyes Native notification.

Charlotte

Shahjahan Jewel So far, the default Brave browser on an iPhone is blocking the notifications. I’ll turn off Brave’s shield now and see what happens.

Shahjahan Jewel

Charlotte D Thanks. We are still testing it. I deployed it here to see how it works from different places and environments.

Jorge de los Reyes

Charlotte D Shahjahan Jewel I am on Chrome (MAC), and got on the community tab Charlotte's notice :)

Shahjahan Jewel

Jorge de los Reyes So when your tab is active, we show the notification within the app to avoid system push notifications being overwhelmed.

Jorge de los Reyes

Shahjahan Jewel Super handy approach!

I usually disable notifications everywhere. But having such on the same tab it's a quite smart move.

Congrats!

Shahjahan Jewel

Jorge de los Reyes, we will give the user complete control over which notifications they want to subscribe to. But it really improves the engagements and better for admin/moderators.

Charlotte

Jorge de los Reyes good comment - gives me another angle to test!

Shahjahan Jewel

Charlotte D You should get a notification now 🤣

Charlotte

Shahjahan Jewel I was on mobile at first. 😢 But switched to desktop and was able to turn them on with Brave shields up. Will hang here a minute to confirm I get more. 😁

Shahjahan Jewel

Charlotte D sending one now!

Charlotte

Shahjahan Jewel Caught it! There was a little extra text at the end of the notification - but otherwise 👌🏼

Shahjahan Jewel

Charlotte D yes. will definitely make some improvements.

Charlotte

Jorge de los Reyes

Shahjahan Jewel This will be key!

Receiving mentions and so and being able to filter: great addition!

Natascha Vantuykom

Shahjahan Jewel when are the notifications visible? I'm on chrome desktop and I did not see a single notification 😔 feeling left out

Shahjahan Jewel

Natascha Vantuykom you should get an notification for this comment. If you are active to the site (active tab) then it will show as in app notification.

Kevin Watson

I never enabled push notifications for a website, but I probably would for my own community. This would be great for that.

Shahjahan Jewel

Kevin Watson Looks like it's working fine

Andre Gois

From where can i test That ?

Shahjahan Jewel

Andre Gois Currently available on desktop/laptop browsers.

Jorge de los Reyes

Andre Gois I found the option inside the FluentCart space. On the right sidebar

David Scurlock

Doesn't fc already send email notifications? Exactly what does push notifications do? And where did you see this option?

Shahjahan Jewel

David Scurlock, it will be just another channel to get real-time notifications like other social apps.

Jorge de los Reyes

David Scurlock It just a more dynamic way of seeing your notifications on the community, in the same tab of the community.

This way, I see:

  • You can avoid receiving by email something you could address from desktop directly.
  • It could foster engagement.

__
You can enable this from FluentCart's space, on the right sidebar, from a desktop device. (that's what I did).

Jorge de los Reyes

Shahjahan Jewel well, I am receiving tons of emails from this post haha

So I guess in the future this would not happen David Scurlock --> But I invite you to try it and see it by yourself to make an idea on how could you implement and use this on your flamant, new community (Hope you managed to solve the LTD hesitation you commented on recently!)

Kevin Watson

David Scurlock These are browser notifications on desktop. So while you are browsing, you can get notifications on your community in your browser instead or in addition to email.

Manuel Müller

Jorge de los Reyes where can I activate this? Nothings in the settings

Jorge de los Reyes

Manuel Müller I entered, from desktop, into the fluentcart space > Right side bar. And you may find this box.

Probably it's available on every space.

Shahjahan Jewel

Manuel Müller yes, It's available on desktops only. At the sidebar (Any space or main feed).

Gee Adriaansz

Shahjahan Jewel I looked everywhere but did not find it!

Manuel Müller

Gee Adriaansz clear browsercache and reload the tab

Gee Adriaansz

Manuel Müller i had to refresh a couple of times. Working now :)

Shahjahan Jewel

If anyone can try it out: You will find the button in any space or the main feed's sidebar. Or from your profile's notification settings. Or use this link: https://community.wpmanageninja.com/portal/u/__me__/notification-settings

Note: Only available on desktop.

Ross FCA

Amazing! Will be so handy to have this built in natively. Lovely approach with the sidebar!

Jeff Mapes

testing

Ross FCA

Jeff Worked like a charm - The issue with you receiving notifications for every reply to a mega thread is going to be apparent though!

Shahjahan Jewel

Ross FCA yes. We will give some preferences.

Jeff Mapes

need turn off for this thread now!

Shahjahan Jewel

Jeff sending 🔔

Jeff Mapes

Shahjahan Jewel will there a be a silence this thread feature added too?

Jorge de los Reyes

Jeff I was thinking of this too... Shahjahan Jewel 

Jorge de los Reyes

+40 comments on this post in less than one hour 🤣

Our Inbox must be a fun place today.

Shahjahan Jewel

Jorge de los Reyes It's a new toy 🥳

Jeff Mapes

Jorge de los Reyes my inbox has blown up and Jorge get's the most viral thread ever award!

Jorge de los Reyes

Jeff Haha, didn’t mean to detonate your inbox, Jeff.
Next time I’ll try to post in stealth mode… ninja style.

Manuel Müller

🎉🎉

Jorge de los Reyes

Manuel Müller Congrats!

Shahjahan Jewel

Manuel Müller

Shahjahan Jewel Jorge de los Reyes please, there needs to be a totally annoying sound coming with every notification .... and as a user, you're only allowed to turn it off after 50 messages 😂

Jorge de los Reyes

Manuel Müller

Here are some ninja-themed notification sounds scientifically engineered to ruin your peace:

  • Shuriken whoosh-CLANK — because even ninjas miss sometimes.
  • Katana unsheathing at 3× speed — perfect for inducing mild panic.
  • Smoke bomb misfire: “poof… cof cof…” — your phone tried its best.

Guaranteed to make you check your phone… and question your life choices.

Charlotte

Jorge de los Reyes 🤣🤣🤣

Charlotte

Jorge de los Reyes Do you play AC Shadows or Ghost of Yotei or something similar? Cause those are oddly-specific examples. 🎮 That are giving me the intended goose-bumps.

Charlotte

Manuel Müller Also 🤣! Perfect!

Manuel Müller

Jorge de los Reyes we're on the same page!!

Jorge de los Reyes

Charlotte D
Haha not really! I just spent last month in Japan, so all that ninja stuff is still very fresh: I even met one of the Ghost of Yotei translators, haha.

And yes, I totally embarrassed myself gaming over there 🤣

Silent Hill F vibes everywhere… kind of like FluentBooking scheduling meetings without charging 😂

Also came back with a Switch 2 after 20+ years away from gaming.

Let’s just say that, as a good consultant, I get to know the industry 🥷

Nazir Himel

Charlotte D Had to jump into the conversation because I've been playing Ghost of Tsushima for over a month now 😂

Jorge de los Reyes

Nazir Himel 🤣

Haha that’s a great one to be stuck on: Ghost of Tsushima is basically a “samurai productivity trap.”

I’ll probably end up falling into something similar now that I came back from Japan with a Switch… though the closest I’ll get is AC Shadows 😂

And since it’s all ninja-related: does this count as R&D for the WPMN ninjas? 🤔
Respect for the commitment Nazir!

Charlotte

Nazir Himel I have a lot of hours in AC Shadows. Finishing up the latest mission drops now. I think closer to the end of December I'm going to start Ghost of Yotei and work backwards into Tsushima.

Charlotte

Jorge de los Reyes I don't know what a samurai productivity trap is, but I'm imagining that I'll have fun finding out!

Nazir Himel

Jorge de los Reyes if you want to try GOT (not Game of Thrones lol) go ahead. I mean I’m obsessed with the gameplay lol! The tales are super realistic and the combat system is basically the cherry on top! But hey it does count as a WPMN activity if you consider winding off important after a day of intense work. 😂

Nazir Himel

Charlotte D honestly I haven’t played AC Shadows or any AC games but since playing Ghost of Tsushima I feel like I should give it a try as I love playing in stealth mode.

Charlotte

Nazir Himel I 🖤 stealth mode!! 🥷🏼 Too much fun. I'm fairly new to the AC franchise (Origins forward) and I find the games very different from each other. It's interesting. Have enjoyed them all except Vahalla, which had no stealth. Vikings don't do subtle. 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ Shadows is different in that it has one stealth main character and one battle ready main character.

Nazir Himel

Charlotte D that sounds cool! I’m more of a Prince of Persia fan but now that I found out Ghost of Tsushima and Black Myth Wokong, I don’t think I’m going for something else soon. 😎

Jorge de los Reyes

Charlotte D , Nazir Himel … I swear I’ve laughed way too much just imagining everyone’s inbox right now 🤣

Half the community joined this thread for a strict technical matter and suddenly they’re getting premium recommendations on videogames, ninjas, samurais and stealth lore.

If this isn’t a sign that we need an off-topic space with a couple of dedicated channels (Games, Travel, Random Genius Moments…), I don’t know what is 😄

Thanks for the entertainment: best unintended community update ever.

I’ll start researching some good titles for the Switch now: clearly this thread has opened a whole new backlog for all of us 😂🎮

Nazir Himel

Jorge de los Reyes haha yes I agree but although I just realized I’m not sure if Shahjahan Jewel bhai will make an OT space or kick me out of the space for jumping into something completely OT🤐

Jorge de los Reyes

Nazir Himel Hahaha Nazir, if that happens, at least we’ll go out with honor: like true ninjas who took one harmless detour into forbidden OT territory 🤣

But honestly… if this thread proved anything, it’s that we do need an OT corner.

A good way to better know and create bounds with other members around fluent products.

Currently, the only way to do so, requires Direct Messages.

It could be a nice idea to consider. I think many of us spend a good time here debating ideas, feature requests, and more.

If not, hey, if only there is one great plugin that can allow us to create awesome and engaging communities... maybe... and just maybe, we could create something alike :)

Charlotte

Nazir Himel Surely not! Shahjahan Jewel be kind to us weary ninja gamers!

I've not heard of Black Myth Wokong - added to my list to check out. Also on that list is Rise of the Ronin.

Charlotte

Another quick note: I received 2 notifications while writing a response on another post. 👍🏼 Cool. But obv I didn't want to click away from my draft & lose it. Once I posted the comment, though, I can't find a way to see what I've been notified of in the interim.

Shahjahan Jewel

Charlotte D yes. That needs to be handled.

Gee Adriaansz

Cool! I haven't seen it yet myself but can't wait to test it out!

Drive Zone

Love it!

Drive Zone

I would prefer show this function not directly on profile but in notifications center where you manage email notifications. Anyway users can be prompted automatically on first visit.

Claudy Scoufy

Community: this name is truly fitting for the “ninjas,” who really listen to their community, and this wish has now come true! (Next, I’m keeping my fingers crossed for custom fields…) Thanks for that!

Andre Gois

Claudy Scoufy  custom fields yes please!!!

Donald McGuinn

Commenting just to see!

Bryan William

How do I enable this feature

Natascha Vantuykom

Shahjahan Jewel I get an error when I try to enable push notificatiins 😔

Shahjahan Jewel

Natascha Vantuykom Maybe Mobile Devices do not support Push notifications out of the box. Will check on Android.

It doesn't work for me, I get the same error as Natascha Vantuykom 

Drive Zone

I still see some awesome new and new changes live here on FC! Love it! Keep it real!

Chari

absolutely loving it!

Shahjahan Jewel

Doing some testing on iOS as well

Stéphane Giguère

Émile VARDANIAN

I don't see where activating please ? Nothing in the right sidebar except spaces

Jorge de los Reyes

Émile VARDANIAN Are you looking from a desktop device?

Émile VARDANIAN

Jorge de los Reyes of course sir ... On my own website... I don't see anything.

Jorge de los Reyes

Émile VARDANIAN not sure if there are browser limitations; or they stopped testing.

Could be the case! (They were commenting issues with Android yesterday).

And also, I only received notifications a couple of hours ago.

Maybe we should summon the team for the answer 😅

Kevin Watson

Émile VARDANIAN I don't think it has been released, just testing on this site.

Jorge de los Reyes

Kevin Watson 😅 ups! Thought Émile was asking for WPMN site.

Yep. This is just testing as Jewel commented yesterday.

It’s not available for end users.

Émile VARDANIAN

Jorge de los Reyes My baaaad ... I'm so sad 😅

Jorge de los Reyes

Émile VARDANIAN don’t worry! A good excuse to clarify it on the post. Which I have just updated :)

Eduardo Reyes

Amazing! I hope it will be available soon for a stable version
