Web Push

[JoieDeMort]

I just noticed this today with the latest Mozilla update: web push.

 

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/push-notifications-firefox#w_upgraded-notifications

 

This allows pages to in the background send notifications.

 

To me, it seems that receiving a web page notification of new orders/tickets/etc when not on the blesta window would be advantageous.

 

Is this something that is planned?

Would be a nice feature but it's not planned that I know of. Browser notifications are supported in Chrome, Edge and Safari as-well. How they work I don't know but IPB 4.0 supports it.

Browser notifications are nice, but most browser support still requires the web site to be open. It's good to see that Firefox is implementing the W3C standard, but like with many new features, there is often a fair amount of time that has to go by before the standard is adopted in practice. And of course, people have to upgrade their browsers to make use of it. We're unlikely to include a feature that is not yet widely supported by multiple major browsers. Even if we do offer some desktop notifications (we have discussed this), it would be completely optional.

@JoieDeMort: Great ideia

 

I will try to code an APP to recive blesta notifications on:

 

Windows 10

Android

IOS

 

its easy, I only need TIME to do it

These notifications are pretty cool and orders and tickets would be a good candidate for these. I could see this something that we implement as a sort of "beta" feature that you could enable if you want.
