Getting StartedSite owners and developers

Launch PushWave on your first site

Create the site, connect its service worker, verify a subscriber, and send a test notification.

In the app→PushWave → Getting Started

Setup sequence

  1. 1

    Open Sites and confirm the site name, HTTPS URL, timezone, and allowed origin.

  2. 2

    Open Getting Started and generate VAPID keys.

  3. 3

    Install the WordPress plugin and connect it with the PushWave URL and Public Key, or use the manual SDK snippet.

  4. 4

    For a manual install, serve /pushwave-sw.js from the root of the subscriber site and make it import the PushWave worker.

  5. 5

    Enable the soft prompt, visit the site in a supported browser, and allow notifications.

  6. 6

    Run installation verification. Site details, VAPID keys, the prompt, and at least one active subscriber should pass.

  7. 7

    Open Subscribers and use Send Test before creating a full broadcast.

Manual installation files

<script
  src="https://app.k2mailer.com/vendor/pushwave/sdk/pushwave-sdk.js"
  data-public-key="pk_YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY"
  data-service-worker="/pushwave-sw.js"></script>

The service worker path matters

The worker file must be served from the root of the subscriber domain. A nested path reduces or prevents the scope needed for push delivery.
