My current bbPress deployment is on the bbPress showcase here: https://bbpress.org/about/examples/ Ute Hub, the 2nd on the favorites list. My users have asked many times for a mobile version of the site. I’ve done two mobile apps, one an implementation of a straight WordPress blog. My current project is to build a bbPress app for iOS and Android. I’ve put a lot of work into it already and it’s shaping up nicely. I’m using two API’s discussed here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/is-there-an-api-for-bbpress/ for my data, and have modified one to my needs.

I currently have a working app which reads the 10 latest posts straight from the site (pictured below). Tapping on the item loads the full topic.

Next on the list is to get comments on posts, list of forums. Then perhaps release a read-only version for my users. Then I will work on authentication and allowing users to login and post from their mobile devices.

Hey @sambhal I’m working on your idea. But I already had this in my config.xml:

<access origin=”*” />
<allow-intent href=”http://*/*&#8221; />
<allow-intent href=”https://*/*&#8221; />
<allow-navigation href=”*” />

That should cover everything shouldn’t it?

[@sambhal Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

I think it should work.
I am using Angular 1.

Any thoughts of integrate Push system into the app? https://codecanyon.net/item/desktop-mobile-push-notification-system-wordpress-plugin/6548533

they support bbpress, and I requested new features for bbpress.

[@superjohn4455 Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

Thanks @tkserver.

[@tkserver Participant 6 years, 11 months ago]

Hey @makarkinpro I just ran into a comment you made at codecanyon regarding push notifications for bbpress. I’m not working on a bbPress app for a client and they want a user to be able to subscribe for push notifications in bbpress. I ended up finding that plugin you commented on. Any news on that?

[@tkserver Participant 6 years, 10 months ago]

Huh?

[@tkserver Participant 6 years, 10 months ago]

My app works on iOS and Android.

New stuff I’m working on for my bbPress android/ios app… First a threaded/tree view of replies to make the conversation easier to follow.

Built an API and the app code for a search feature for the next version of the app:

New features in the “actions” menu for each topic/reply. Some features are admin only, like trash/delete. Others include edit topic/reply, block user, report content.

I am using Firebase Cloud Messaging in my application to send notifications.

[@tkserver Participant 6 years, 9 months ago]

I am using Firebase Cloud Messaging in my application to send notifications.

I looked at that but it seemed to not be easy or well supported in Angular 1. Would love to hear how you are making that work.

[@tkserver Participant 6 years, 7 months ago]

I’ve been quiet on my bbPress IOS/Android app as of late. The current version is working very well and during our site’s off-season I’m migrating my codebase to a native platform. That’s going well and hopefully can take advantage of device specific features at some point if needed.

[@basutarudo Participant 4 years, 5 months ago]

Hey @tkserver thank you for your posts. That is very exciting.

[@gujingc Participant 4 years, 4 months ago]

Hi, I found this thread. How is this project going?

We are building a mobile app that connects to the bbPress forum on our site. We have been told that bbPress does not have its own API. Can WP REST API handle the following:

1) Create a new topic
2) Reply to a topic
3) pull out topics and replies by a specific user
4) pull out profile info of a user who created a topic or replied to a topic
5) subscribe / unsubscribe to a topic.

Are there any limitations?
Where can we find the documentation?

Thank you so much!

Jing
