How to Install and Use the Pushover Notifications Add-on for AffiliateWP
With the Pushover Notifications add-on for AffiliateWP you can give your affiliates the option to connect their phone or tablet via Pushover to your affiliate system so that they receive push notifications anytime a new referral is awarded to their account. This add-on does require that you have an account with Pushover.net. If you do not have one, registration is free!
In this article, we’ll show you how to install and set up the Pushover Notifications add-on for AffiliateWP.
Requirements: You will need a Plus plan or higher to access the Custom Affiliate Slugs add-on.
1. Installing the Pushover Notifications Add-on
Before we get started, be sure to install and activate AffiliateWP on your WordPress site.
Once you’ve got AffiliateWP installed and your license is verified you’ll be able to quickly install and activate the Pushover Notifications add-on.
After installing the Pushover Notifications add-on, the next step is to configure your settings.
2. Setting up Pushover Notifications
The Pushover Notifications add-on is simple to setup and only has a single option to be configured.
As soon as the plugin is activated, go to AffiliateWP » Settings and click on the Pushover tab:
Enter your Pushover Application Key and click Save Changes. Your Pushover Application Key can be found in your Pushover.net account. If you have not created any applications, click the Register an Application link from your Pushover.net dashboard:
Once you have entered your Application Key, your affiliates will have a new field available in the Settings tab of the Affiliate Area that allows them to enter their User Key. Any affiliate that has entered their User Key and has new referral notifications enabled will automatically receive push notifications anytime a new referral with a status of Unpaid is awarded to their account.
Note: Affiliates will also need to have a Pushover account in order to obtain the User Key that’s requested in the Affiliate Area.
