    hello,
    I can't quite figure out how push notifications work since I can't see/activate them even here at community.nodebb.org.

    I am using NodeBB 4.4.4.

    I see that in the settings there is and active "Push Notifications (via Push API) but nowhere and nowhere do I ever get a suggestion to enable browser notifications.

    Is there something I don't understand that needs to be enabled that I don't see or do they work differently than I imagine?

    Thanks!

    ska there should be a user setting page for push notifications, and they are activated on a per-device level.

    Does the toggle activate for you?

      julian thanks for the answer.

      I see in F12 console this error:

      service-worker.js:31 Uncaught NetworkError: Failed to execute 'importScripts' on 'WorkerGlobalScope': The script at 'https://citiverse.it/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-web-push/static/web-push.js' failed to load.
          at service-worker.js:31:1
      (anonymous) @ service-worker.js:31
      An unknown error occurred when fetching the script.
      

      But the web-push plugin is active and I even tried uninstalling -> deleting it and reinstalling it.

      on NodeBB I see:

      edit: I understand that the problem is with the “PEACE” theme.

      Do you know if there is a patch for it?

              baris Thank you it seems to be working now.

              I still have problems on Brave but maybe it's just a cache issue because on Firefox and Edge it's not giving me problems, I'll try again later from another computer.

                thanks baris and julian it seems works now.

                I went back to the “original” theme because actually the ntfy push has the exact same problem, if I activate the PEACE theme the ntfy notifications don't go.

                Can you tell me who is possible to tag for this plugin?

                Thank you.

                    julian ah ok, I didn't realize that and didn't know that.

                    So it's basically abandoned and there will be no particular updates I guess, is it recommended to leave only web-push?

                      ska correct, since web-push relies on more modern browser supported technology and doesn't require a third-party service (in this case, ntfy.sh)
