Hi I joined Buzztouch with the idea of setting up an app that would provide parents with push notifications on ways they could help with their child's development. I think I jumped ahead a few steps though. After some great advice I'm going to set up a website first - soon to be www.IdeasToGrowOn.net - might as well start advertising! How should I set up the ideas that will become Pushes? In a wordpress blog on the site or in the sites pages? I'm just wondering if the wordpress blog will be that easy to organize and navigate - in the site I could set up the ideas by category and age level. Will it matter in the end? - The push would be just a short sentence about the idea - the full idea would be a page that parent would view if they are interested in finding out more. Thanks much for your time.

You can have a look here: http://laappdeveloper.com/disabilityblog/ Once you get used to WordPress, it's easy to implement categories, pages, age level, and installing free plugins from WP. I'm not sure if they have a push plugin though but I will look into it for you. LA Comments Hi and welcome @Frznrth, I have WordPress for my disability blog.

Someone had recommended using word press and then send pushes by using its "Jetpack plugin for it's JSON interface to deliver the articles to the Mobile App" - still Greek for me at the moment. Also when I was looking at your blog a popup was talking about sending pushes - must be possible. I guess I could set up both a blog and have the same info categorized in the website pages so people could use whatever they wanted. Thanks for the help. - I'm sure more questions will come up. Great to know that buzztouch's forum has nice helpful participants. Garth Comments Hi Thanks - I didn't realize that you could set up wordpress with categories. I'll give it a try.

I'm trying to find one that would send a notification to an App that has my wp page installed but not sure if it's possible.
