    Hi,
    I know that your framework is responsive, but I need know another question…
    Are you working in order to release in the next months an app for mobiles?
    Aa an alternative I have seen the following app “http://apppresser.com/”. It appears to be a good app for BuddyPress (it use push notifications and more…). Do you know it? Are GeoDirectory compatible with AppPresser?
    Thank`s for your suppor.

    HI,

    yes we are wroking on extending the WP REST API. AppPresser can’t be made compatible yet, because we don’t have a complete API yet.

    Once we will have they’ll be able to make it compatible. We prefer to work with PhoneGap though.

    Thanks

    Hi, thank`s for your answer. It is a very good experience to receive answer so quickly ;=)

    Only three things more:

    1. Approximately when do you think that Geodirectory will be compatible with AppPress?
    3 months
    1 year

    2. You tell me that you prefer to work with PhoneGap. Do you mean that it will be better to use http://buddysidekick.com/?

    3. I`m lookig for an BuddyPress App compatible with Geodirectory. AppPress send “Push Notifications” when user receive a friend request, or messages. I don¨t know if Buddysidekick send notifications…
    Do you know a BuddyPress App compatible with Geodirectory that send notifications? What do you suggest me?

    Thank`s for your profesional support

    Hi,

    we will build an API in the next few months (possibly 6) and our own PhoneGap app (no Buddysidekick).

    Appresser will only be compatible if their developers work on it to make it compatible once we have an API available.

    At the moment not having an API for GD, there is no possible app compatible.

    Thanks

    Hi, I have understand.
    You will make in approximate 6 month the API, and AppPress will be compatible with GeoDirectory if their developer will use your API and will work in order to do campatible GeoDirectory and AppPress. Ok I have understand.

    But I don`t have understand the other part of your answer about your PhoneGap App.
    Do you are working in developer an GeoDirectory App like “Buddysidekick” or “AppPress”?
    Is it so?
    If it is so:
    1. This app will be compatible with BuddyPress?
    2. It will send a notification to the mobile when user receive a friend request, messages or comments from groups, just like Facebook?
    3. Approximately when user can have your App?
    If it will be so, I will be very very happy to buy your App 😉
    Please let me know if it is so.
    Thank`s for your support

    Hi,

    Yes we will do our own App for GeoDirectory and WordPress.

    1) initially it will not be compatible with BuddyPress.
    2) It will send push notification for other things as long as BuddyPress isn’t compatible.
    3) minimum 6 months from now.

    Thanks

    wow… it is a very very very good news. I am very happy to use GeoDirectory. I will be the first client in buy that…

    Release of this App maybe will change my plans about the project I will release the next month.
    I am designing a web with WordPress + BuddyPress + Multisite + GeoDirectory
    I use Multisite because I will make a website for each province
    “Principal Web” is http://www.infocity.website
    “Sub Webs” are http://www.barcelona.infocity.website http://www.madrid.infocity.website etc…
    Users will registered in “Principal web” are users of all the webs
    Due to your new App, I need to be sure if this design will be a good solution for my new web. So I need you give me more detail about your answer of the previous comment.

    1) initially it will not be compatible with BuddyPress.
    Question: Do it mean that in my web:
    a) Your App will run very well only Geodirectory function, but will not have funcion like send friend request, group ets
    b) Your App will be 100¼ no compatible with BuddyPress, so it will run nothing (neither Geodirectory nor WordPress)?

    2) It will send push notification for other things as long as BuddyPress isn’t compatible.
    Maybe can user select one o more cities and when a new event will be created it will receive a notification?
    If Push Notification have had desided, can you send a list resum of them?

    3) To release minimum 6 months from now.
    OK.
    Question: When user can have compatibility with BuddyPress?
    a) One year from now
    b) Two year from now

    Sorry for to much question, but this new release is very very important in order to plan my project.
    I think you need inform Geodirectory users because this App will be a significant improvement of GeoDirectory. I think you must do a mail explain the feature of the App.

    I wait your answer about my three questions.
    Congratulation one thing more for your work and thank`s for your support.

    Hi,

    1) initially it will only have listings and blog posts. No activity, no friends and nothing else about Buddypress.

    2) we didn’t decide this yet.

    3) it really depends how many members will request it after we release our initial app. If only a few will, we could even never develop that part.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    Maybe I have a serious problem…
    I am designing my web like following:
    1) Principal website http://www.infocity.website (with BuddyPress, Multisite and GeoDirectory)
    2) 50 Subwebsites http://www.barcelona.infocity.website / http://www.madrid.infocity.website / http://www.valencia.infocity.website / etc etc (in each subsite I have activated individually GeoDirectory).
    From AppPress told me that AppPress don`t support Multisite, so I need activate AppPress individually in each subsite, just like GeoDirectory. It mean that I will have not 1 Application, but 50 different applications… It is no a good solution…
    However if you release your own GeoDirectory App, I prefer wait and to buy your App.
    But I need understand if in my Multisite GeoDirectory App will run just like AppPress.
    So my question is:
    In my Multisite, Do I need install GeoDirectory App individually in each subwebsite?
    If it so, will I have 50 diferents GeoDirectory Apps?
    I am very concerned.. I don`t want 50 diferents GeoDirectory Apps… I only want one App for all 50 Subwebsites
    So I need know your answer…
    If the solution, in order to have only one GeoDirectory App for all 50 Subwebsites, is “DELETE MULTISITE” and make only one website, I will do that…
    But I need know your answer now, before make and release all 50 subsite.
    I don`t want start my project with a bad solution and after bring down all…
    I hope your answer.
    Thank`s one more for your support.

    I can’t confirm this now 100%, but I highly doubt we will make the app MultiSite compatible.

    It would make it much more difficult to implement.

    Probably it will be compatible with multisite in a sense that you can create 1 app for each website in the network. However I can’t confirm that as of yet.

    I’ll ask to Striofan to add his comments here.

    Thanks

    I agree that I doubt we will make the app mu ready, but the way we are making it I don’t think it would be too hard (for a 3rd party developer) to add something to add a sort of home page selector but times are early for our app, we have just started researching things so I can give a 100% accurate answer.

    Ok. I undestand. Thanks for your answer.
    I have only a little question.
    I need to do a change to my GeoDirectory pluguin. Concretely I want to do changes in the page “URL/events” and in the search page (pages that are showed when an user do a search like introducing a city in the near field).
    This pages I have understood they are “archive pages”. So my question is:
    If I do a changes in “archive page”, these changes will afects the APP? I am afraid if I do changes in “archive page” the APP will not run well.
    I think changes in “archive pages” will not afects the APP, because I think the APP only export information about places and events like “TITLE”, “DESCRIPTION”, ADRESS. PHOTO, etc, and if I do changes “archive pages” this information will not be changed.
    I dont know if you can confirm that, but all your sugestion will be apreciated.
    Thanks for your support.

    Hi,

    that is correct, the app is another application that shares the same DB. Anything you change for the plugin front end will not change in the app too.

    Thanks
