notify users?

[joit]

Hi,

so I have this ordering /shopping site with j2store. No I wondered if there's a more realtime way of notifying shops that there is a new order than with an email.
Ideally playing a sound would be great or to have an annoying popup.

I looked through the plugins but I couldn't find anything similar. Do you think there's a way?

Thanks
Hannes

We don't have anything. If you can find a J! app that provides that feature, I can see if there's an easy way of integrating.

Or you can send texts. Those are annoying.

I played around with mp3 in file upload element and playback works extremely well

would it be much work to trigger that playback?

Depends how and where you want to trigger it, I guess.

I'm not sure what your workflow idea is.

ok, it is required for the vendor to be logged in my site.
If a client finishes the order with j2store, an email is sent to him and the vendor. At the same time, the sound should be played back to the vendor

But on what page do you want the sound to play?

aha, that's a good question.
would it be possible to to make this feature independent of the page?
so that it is enough to be logged in?
