XF 2.1 Enabling push notifications requires PHP to have the GMP extension available.

[Neutral Singh]

I can't enable push notification but GMP extension is installed in php and enabled. Any ideas?

PHP 7.2.12

What browser/device are you using?

 

[Neutral Singh]

Imac / MacOS High Sierra / FF

Unfortunately for reasons beyond our control (read: it's Apple's fault) the list of supported devices/browsers notably exclude Safari on macOS and any iOS-based browser. This functionality is made possible by making use of a number of APIs including the Push API and Notification API which most browsers support already.

That would not prevent enabling push notifications in the Admin CP globally. It would just prevent your device from subscribing to notifications.

Are you running PHP 7.1 or above according to phpinfo? Does phpinfo list anything for gmp?

You can easily access and check phpinfo from the "Server environment report" - the PHP version is a link which takes you there.

 

[Neutral Singh]

My php ver is 7.2.12

Just double check it through phpinfo via the method I described above just to be sure, and also check gmp is mentioned in the page. If it is, then I have another theory.

But does a block like this show up?

 

[Neutral Singh]

hmmm... no, I guess need to contact web-host...

Have you check the checkbox "Enable Push Notifications"?

 

[Neutral Singh]

it doesn't...

I think he's tried that

It's subtle, but the checkbox is disabled.

Is it a fresh install (a testsite) or an updated 2.0.x forum? Maybe is it a upgrade-bug?

 

[Neutral Singh]

It's an upgrade to live but a dormant installation... website is working just fine otherwise...

(Request submitted to the web-host... will update soon...)

 

[Neutral Singh]

Tada! working fine now!

Hi there,

Could anyone tell me where can I enable push notifications in my forum?

Thanks...

 

[Ozzy47]

In the ACP, Setup > Options > User alerts and notifications > Enable push notifications.

Then set up User Group permissions.

Go to your profile and enable.

Never mind, I see it's on the Groups Permission section
