An ecommerce site owner using Vbout for automation wants to enable push notifications but is blocked by a requirement to place a JavaScript file at the website’s root directory, which they cannot access. They have basic HTML/JavaScript skills and are seeking a workaround or confirmation from others who use Vbout push notifications.
The key constraint is lack of root access, which prevents adding the required JavaScript file where Vbout expects it. The user is asking if there are alternative methods to implement push notifications without root-level placement.
A follow-up update reports an attempted workaround via URL Rewrite to emulate the root path, but it did not work. The participant is asking whether a solution has been found.
Technical context: “root” refers to the top-level directory of the website; “URL Rewrite” is a server configuration technique that remaps requested URLs.
No decisions or solutions have emerged. The thread remains open with unanswered questions about feasible workarounds when root access is unavailable.
Hello everyone.
I’m new on the community and on e-commerce in general.
I’m currently working with Vbout as my main app for automation (email, SMS), and I wanted to have push notifications on my website.
However, the first step is to put a JavaScript document on the root of my website.
As far as I know I can’t access the root.
I know HTML and a little JavaScript.
Does anyone know a workaround for this?
Does anyone work with Vbout and could use the push notifications?
Thanks in advance.
Have you a Solution? I try it with URL Rewrite but it seems no Work
