Setup OneSignal with SuperPWA WordPress Plugin
OneSignal is a multi-platform notification push service, that supports native app and web platforms.
Web push notifications help to increase audience engagement and help in a significant boost in overall page views and returning visitors.
As OneSignal is one of the awesome ways to engage users upon Progressive Web Apps, we included support on our plugin SuperPWA.
Steps to setup OneSignal with SuperPWA WordPress Plugin
- Go to the OneSignal Settings page from your WordPress dashboard.
- Within the OneSignal settings page, you can see Advanced Settings at the bottom of the page.
- Add superpwa post-type name in the advance settings as you can see in the below screenshot and then save the setting.
That’s it! Rest will be done by our plugin Super Progressive Web Apps automatically.
Multisites using OneSignal
SuperPWA is not compatible with OneSignal on multisite just yet. We are looking into a few possible solutions and this is definitely something we want to have in our plugin.
Please get in touch if you are a multisite user using OneSignal so that we can inform you when compatibility is available.
Until then, it is best to disable one of these plugins.
That’s it for this tutorial!
We hope we’ve clear your doubts in case If you have any feedback or questions, Just contact us here and we are always available for you.
Hi José, may i have to install another plugin than SuperPWA? To go to OneSignal Settings, because i’m not founding at my wordpress web site. Thanks and congrats by the awesome plugin!!
Thanks for the great words Irio. Yes! You need to install OneSignal plugin for push notifications. As within SuperPWA latest version, we made it compatible and support to send push notifications to your PWA.
Hi! Just one question; Do I need to sign up for an account on onesignal and have a app id, rest api key and safari web id?
Yes! You need to create an account upon OneSignal to setup it and to use push notifications with SuperPWA.
I am looking to use multisite with onesignal.

I think we’re missing something. How can OneSignal detect new subscribers when people install the Progressive Web App? Is it through the manifest?
We added the manifest after installing the App on our test Android and we still have no subscribers. Any idea what we could be missing?

Hello,
In step no. 3 on saving the manifest.json url, I am getting the below error.
“Your OneSignal subdomain cannot be empty or less than 4 characters. Use the same one you entered on the platform settings at onesignal.com.”
Please help.

I´ve added the custom manifest link to onesignal, created an account, filled in key and id and installed my website as pwa on my home screen. But there is no push notification. Im using Huawei P20 Pro with Android 8.1
What could be possible gone wrong and how can I debug?

Just tried to follow this guide, but the “Use my own manifest.json” option seems to have been removed from OneSignal…
Hello Colin,
Kindly please update the plugin to the latest version and it won’t show any admin notices to enable use manifest.json
Web Push does not require a manifest.json file anymore so OneSignal has removed this flag in version 1.17.9 of the plugin.
This step should be removed.

The option doesnt show in my config, does it still be necesary?
Hi Iker,
As mentioned at the intro of this article, these settings are not needed if you’re using OneSignal plugin version greater than 1.17.9. You can skip the notice which is showing currently over the admin panel.
Hope that helps you!
Yeah but the prob is that the notice is showing on every page of the admin panel. And there is no “X” to close it. So we have this notice showing everywhere and can’t get rid of it!
Hello Maykel,
Please update the plugin to the latest version and it won’t show any admin notices.

Action Required to integrate SuperPWA with OneSignal:
1. Go to OneSignal Configuration > Scroll down to Advanced Settings →
2. Enable Use my own manifest.json
3. Set https://cbshop.in/superpwa-manifest.json as Custom manifest.json URL and Save Settings.
Please refer the OneSignal integration documentation for more info.
How to stop this message being showing or Will you fix that in the next update of Super PWA plugin?
Hello Amit,

Hi Jose,
I love the plugin and am considering going pro (shame I missed the discount).
I notice on Android (Samsung Galaxy s20) that even with OneSignal push and the PWA working wonderfully, that the notification badge only shows ‘1’ even when there are multiple notifications.
Is this a known limitation or is there something I can do in either yours or OneSignal settings to get the badge to update the notification count?

Hi There,
I really liked your app (SuperPWA) and was hoping to get the premium version. But lately I’ve discovered another plugin – ‘one signal’ and after installation I cant access my site at all from any browsers. I have the latest version of both the plugins. To access my site I had to disable one of the plugin from C Panel. I referred to this link https://superpwa.com/doc/setup-onesignal-with-superpwa/ but I don’t have the said option as both are latest plugins. My site is https://checkprices.online. Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sachin.
