Hello I need to createa an andriod and IOS app which have features like – linkage to my wordpress site to present authentication form to users – run some features like buddypress or chat – push notifications
Can this be accomplished using your product ?
Hi! We do support linking to your Wordpress site, however, Buddypress and Authentication are not included.
If you’d like to support Buddypress as well, you can also use WebView to show your site. This will ensure that it functions just like in the browser.
This shit does not work, it helps me return my money, the tutorial is minimal, it does not have details of the problems, the application does not install, they do not guide you step by step how to configure it, I have days of trying and it does not work, I am tired.
I’m sorry to hear you are not completely satisfied with your purchase!
I’m more than happy to help you with the setup. If you have any questions about any particular steps, or if you are having any errors, just send me a ticket at http://sherdle.com/help/ticket/ and I’ll make sure to get back to you.
Also, if you have any suggestions, remarks or improvements about our documentation, I’m eager to improve! So make sure to let me know.
If we can’t get your app to work, or if the issues persist, we can of course discus a refund.
I would like a suggestion of what action to take!
I use WebView for my site and recently Google notified me, for displaying ads in posts with videos! Would you have any solution to this?
There might be some way to identify the YouTube player on the page and hide the ad? :/
Hi! We currently don’t offer an option for this. I’d recommend removing Admob (and Adsense) from your app (and webpages shown) if you use Youtube.
After the last release for universal (adding support for external products in woocommerce), even products that are saved as drafts, pending review or marked private are get displayed.
Thank you for reporting this, I wasn’t aware of the issue! I’ll make sure to look into this. For now, you can always downgrade to the previous version (V4.1) included in your download.
Any quick fix for the current version possible by commenting out/adding code?
I’m sorry, but we’ve made changes throughout our WooCommerce source you can’t comment out some code.
how can we remove add to favorites ic_heart “icon” in woocommerce product? android:visible="false" doesn’t seem to be working
Also, visible=false, does not seem to work on activity_wordpress_details for ‘dateauthorview’ and ‘favorite’.
sorted. had to use android:visibility=”gone” instead.
That’s right! Have a nice day 
Hi Sherdle, thanks for the great app.
Unfortunately, I have a few problems. I understand practically most of everything, the only problem is that when I access my YouTube API key from the dev console, it has a dash within it which you can view here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1jrCc1UEl060fl5uzE9ysEqGdOMMl-Uzm
Next, the Wordpress website which I want to use for the app is: https://nicholson98.wordpress.com/ Would the REST API be https://public-api.wordpress.com/rest/v1/sites/en.nicholson98.wordpress.com?
My last question is regarding strings. If my app is not utilizing anything to do with Instagram, am I allowed to delete those strings or is it fine if I just leave them be?
Once again, thanks for the wonderful template, I look forward to buying Universal for iOS. Please contact me as soon as possible.
I’m happy to respond to your queries: 1) A dash in the API should be no problem, this is completely normal 2) Yes, so enter en.nicholson98.wordpress.com as parameter 3) You can delete them, just leave them as they are by default.
I hope I could be of help. Best of luck!
It appears that you’ve enter your API key in the wrong place in strings.xml. make sure to enter the value between > and < of a string and not between ” and ” (see documentation for an example)
For WordPress we support categories and recent posts, enter the category id to show a category or otherwise leave it blank. For page use WebView. First menu item is the lauch page.
Api strings you don’t use you should keep. Please read our documentation carefully, steps not documentated need not to be done.
Hello, thanks for the response! I finally got it to work and am working on making resources currently. Thanks for the great app. Just one question though. Is it possible to copy all of my config files and use them to make the iOS app or will I have to go through a different process for that? Thanks.
Oh and also, is it possible for me to only show one individual YouTube video or does it have to be a playlist or channel?
Great to hear you got it working and that you like the app!
While you can re-use some API keys (and in some cases, you config.json file) I would recommend you create a new configuration as per the documentation of the IOS app.
You can only show playlists and channels, it’s not yet possible to show a single video.
Wow, that’s amazing to hear. At the moment, I am using RSS, Twitter, Webview, and YouTube right now. Is it possible for me to copy the config file for the iOS app in this case? Also, creating the app for iOS doesn’t require me to use a MacOS device, correct? Lastly, is it possible to edit the overview.json file to show what I want it to?
Thanks for the fabulous service!
The Youtube configuration is slightly different for IOS than for Android, so I’d suggest to create a new configuration file using the IOS configuration builder tool.
Using Universal for IOS requires Xcode which runs only on MacOS, however you don’t need a mac to run MacOS, you can use a virtual machine or a cloud service (like MacInCloud.com).
Yes, you can ofcourse edit overview.json or use our tool (see documentation).
Alright thanks for the info. I managed to make my overview script by opening the original in android studio as it doesn’t load in its entirety in the tool. Thanks!
Amazing, great to hear and thank you for the feedback 
No problem! You deserve it!
Also, I know that it isn’t right for me to ask but I want to see my chances. It it possible to implement a splash screen in the next update or is it too much to ask for? Anyways, thanks again.
Feedback is always welcome. However, I can’t make any definitive promises. Have a nice day 
I have an error with Android version code:
Error:(2) error: invalid android:versionCode ‘x.x’. Error:(2) invalid android:versionCode ‘9.1’.
Error:java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: com.android.tools.aapt2.Aapt2Exception: AAPT2 error: check logs for details Error:java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: com.android.tools.aapt2.Aapt2Exception: AAPT2 error: check logs for details
A version code can’t contain a dot. Only a number (i.e. 92)
Please Upgrade Wordpress Plugin V2.
Hi! How do you mean Plugin V2? We already support the latest version of the WP REST API (WP Rest V2) and JetPack / wordpress.com API.
Hi, there is a problem in your last Update with webview at 4.4 Android system, app always crashed by opening a website. Can you please update this, there are a lot of users they are using 4.4 Android. Newer android version like 5.1 are not affected
Hi! Thank you for reporting this. I’ll makes sure to look into this with the next update.
For now, you can always revert back to 4.1 which is included in your download.
Hi, is there any new information with the fix of this problem
Hi! For now, our engineers haven’t been able to reproduce the problem, and we haven’t received any similar reports from other users, therefore this is currently not a hot fix. Nevertheless, I will look into this with the next major update, scheduled for this summer to ensure everything works properly.
Pre-Sale Question:
Your app as more than outstanding. I just have one question which can help me decide
What new features / integrations can be expected in near future?
Best regards
Hi! While I can tell you that we still support and will continue to support Universal with new features and updates, as we did in the past, I can’t yet disclose any definite features we’ll bring with next updates as we plan this as we go.
what are some recommended hosting services to host this app?
I personally use Azure, but any hosting supporting Wordpress should work.
Hi, Sorry for the interruption, I noticed that when a user shares something in the webview it send a URL to that page, can it be changed to something, For example, a link to google play store?
Hi! The template source will be completely accessible for you, so you can edit any template element you like 
Most recent update my menu is white but can still click on items. all the colors are correct.
Could you submit a ticket at http://sherdle.com/help/ticket with a screenshot?
Hello,
I am using Visual Composer with the7 theme. Will you support visual composer? Please state a clear answer.
Hi! With Universal, we simply display the HTML as passed by your API. So you can make an API request to your Wordpress API (i.e. REST API or JetPAck api) and run the html to see how it looks (we’ll apply some additional styling as well).
So it really depends on the visual composer functions you use and how your API passes the html. If external CSS/JS is required, it won’t work out of the box.
Does the regular license cover google play publishing?
Yes certainly!
I just try demo apk universal sorce code, but why wordpress content post on app not same with the en.blog.wordpress.com? Some images on conten post not showing in app?
Hi! We show the posts exactly as how we receive them from the API (in this case the Wordpress.com API).
In most cases, the content will be the same as on the site, however, when specific plugins/themes are required, or when API content is (in a) different (order) from the site content, posts can appear different in the app.
is webview geolocation support offline webpage? because I put my html code in asset folder not in server
Hi! We intended to only support Geolocation for online webpages. Try putting your code on the server.
Also ensure that locations are enabled, and that GeoLocation is enabled from your WebView (config.java)
btw, is WebviewFragment,java in template version 4.1 can use in 4.2? because its easy to customise. thanks
I wouldn’t recommend doing this, to avoid compatibility issues.
Hi.., Showing youtube video in app will not getting reject from google play because im showing admob ads?
Interest with this source code
Hi! If you don’t use Admob, your app will certainly be accepted. However, if you use Admob and Youtube together in one app, there is a possibility it will get rejected as this is against Google policy.
