Dear @murali-indiacitys 1- PWA not working properly.2- Uploading image button not working at all.3- Documentation is not clear at all.4- In the youtube video, it's confusing if the "Key pair" is the same as the "Public Key".5- Not sending any notifications?!6- I think the plugin is abended, although it has a very great future if it works properly.7- I did all kinds of debugging and testing and deactivating the plugins. still not working!! Recommendation:Working more on this plugin " as a premium plugin " and keep updating, solving problems, and giving real support is better than creating a free plugin used by only 200 users out of 10M users.

The Push Notification Plugin has been a game-changer for my website and mobile app. With the ability to send push notifications for new posts, BuddyBoss activities and comments, and custom post types, I am able to keep my users engaged and informed. The seamless integration of push notifications has allowed me to easily connect with mobile apps and send notifications to both mobile and web users. The front-end push notification menu is also a great feature, giving my users the flexibility to choose which notifications they receive. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this plugin and would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and effective way to send push notifications.

I implemented the plugin for a large customer a few weeks ago and Murali gave me extremely good support on the way to finish the race. The plugin is a real and, above all, better alternative to the native BudyBoss App!!
