## Description

Installing the informvisitors plugin will automatically insert the required code
on your WordPress website, once you add username of your informvisitors account.
To get started, you just have to install this plugin, make an account at informvisitors.
We will contact you and give you your username. Just add the username in Settings
page of WordPress and you are done. Once live, you can see all the details and send
push from your panel at informvisitors website.

What is informvisitors?

informvisitors lets you talk to your subscribers in a succinct, easy and delightful
manner, using push notifications on browser. Push Notifications are clickable messages
sent directly to your subscribers’ browsers (even when they are not on your website).
These work on all devices — desktops, tablets and even mobile phones — so you don’t
even have to invest in building a mobile app for your business. The opt-in and click
rates are amazing! Some of our early adopters have seen an opt-in rate of 40% (10X
the rate at which an average email list builds, and 20X the rate at which an average
Twitter list populates) and a click rate of 20%. Of course, you get to see all this
data, right in your informvisitors dashboard, updated real-time.

Let us help you get amazing returns on your communications. For any questions, please
get in touch with us at gd@informvisitors.com

CREATING NEW PROJECT :-

 * Enter the homepage url of your Website in step 1.
 * Verify the ownership of the Website by choosing one of the methods i.e. Adding
   meta tags, Adding a HTML page, and Using TXT records of your website.
 * Once the ownership has been successfully verified move to the next step of providing
   the FCM (i.e. firebase cloud messaging) credentials for your website.
 * In the next step choose the website platform as wordpress and move to next step.
 * Next you can either customise the appearance of the notification request popups
   and notification section or choose default options (Note:- These settings can
   be changed later as well)
 * In the next step fill the greeting campaign details for the new subscribers.

EXPLORING DASHBORAD :-

FCM Details:
 Google has deprecated GCM service post April, 2019 and advised all
users to migrate to Firebase Cloud Messaging(FCM). In accordance with the notification
we have also upgraded from GCM to FCM. We strongly advice all our clients to create
their own FCM accounts and input their credentials . For a step by step guidance
on how to create or migrate from GCM to FCM please go through this link [GCM to FCM Migration guide](https://www.informvisitors.com/dev-docs/gcmToFCM/).

Please input the following data in the dashboard

 * FCM Project ID
 * FCM Web API Key
 * FCM APP ID
 * FCM Sender ID
 * FCM Server key
 * FCM Vapid key

Failure to input the same data will result in using shared credentials for sending
notifications. We strongly recommend to provide your own FCM credentials for sending
notifications.

Note :
 Make sure your website has service worker and manifest.json files with updated
code as mentioned above.

## FAQ

### I can’t see any code added to my header or footer when I view my page source

Your theme needs to have the header and footer actions in place before the `</head
>` and before the `</body>`

### If I use this plugin, do I need to enter any other code on my website?

No, this plugin is sufficient by itself
