Native Push Notifications Support for NodeBB
-
@phenomlab you need to be on v4.
Alternatively I believe you can update the service worker manually with the one from the ActivityPub branch.
@julian thanks. I'll check this later.

v0.7.0 of the Push Notification plugin has been released
- Notification related service worker code that was initially included in v4 core is now served by the web-push plugin directly, allowing v3.x compatibility.
- Compatibility updated from v4 to v3.10.x
- Meaning if you want to try this out on your existing NodeBB, you can do so by either waiting for v3.10.0, or by updating to the latest commit on the

@julian when does 3.10 come out?

@phenomlab Right now

@julian Hmm - still not working for me...
EDIT - works on my Android phone, but not on my PC - guessing it's likely security software.
EDIT 2 - suspicion confirmed. It's caused by NordVPN. If running, the push notification doesn't work - if disabled, it works fine. -

@julian Yes, very, and their support isn't up to much either in the sense of wanting to fix it. I've had to change my VPN usage from machine level (which I prefer) to browser level - as long as the internet traffic is secured, that's good enough for the time being.

@phenomlab curious, was it also blocking push notifications from this site as well?

I'm on 3.10.0 but still see the ntfy notification plugin. Are native push notifications available if updating to current version?

@dave1904 it's part of core - have a look under
/me/web-push. If you use this, then you'll need to disable ntfy -
To use the native notifications i have to disable ntfy first?
Edit: After disabling there are no notifications settings under user settings. So I guess I have to update the software

@dave1904 sorry. It's not core. You need to install
nodebb-plugin-web-pushand then you'll see the section I mentioned previously. -
@phenomlab found the plugin, thanks!

This requires me to toggle this on by going to my user's profile. is there a way this can be made default 'on' for all users on platform?

@Pankaj-Soni yes and no... the enabling of the push notifications requires a discrete user action — the user has to actually press the switch to enable notifications.
There are ways we can advertise this to end users, so I will look into adding those soon. For now, users will have to go into their user settings to enable push notifications.
