- Short Description
- Automatically logs in users and secures PWA app with advanced headers. Boosts badge counters automatically and enhances push notification permissions for seamless experience. Beta version available, free but requires attribution link on privacy policy.
This addon adds a few things that I felt were missing from XenForo's PWA app:
- If the user that is installing the PWA app is logged in, auto-log them into the PWA app (don't need to force users to log-in from scratch when they first load the installed app).
- Use Sec-Fetch-Site header as replacement for CSRF with a fallback to CSRF if browser doesn't support Sec-Fetch-Site (prevent stale sessions from causing security error message)
- Automatic refresh of badge counters when app is loaded/brought to front (this also applies to the site when being used in a normal browser)
- Give more prominent push notification permission message when initially loading app (see screenshot for example)
- While this works in the testing I've done, I'm going to call it a beta for now. If there are any issues in setups different than my own, I'll address them as needed, but just to be safe, let's call it a beta for now.
- In exchange for being free, this addon has a single attribution link buried on the bottom of XenForo's Help -> Privacy policy page (there are no site-wide or footer links).
