Ntfy (Push Notifications) Service

Details
Category: Services
  • Applicable Software: MokonyxSocial
  • Min Version Number: 01.03.12
  • Max Version Number: Not Applicable

Credentials

  • Server URL — Ntfy server URL. Default: https://ntfy.sh (public server).
  • Topic Name — The notification topic (e.g., my-site-updates). Subscribers use this to receive notifications.
  • Auth Token (optional) — Authentication token if your Ntfy server requires it.

Setup

  1. Choose a unique topic name.
  2. In Joomla, go to Components, Mokonyx Social, add an Ntfy service, and enter the topic name.
  3. Have subscribers install the Ntfy app and subscribe to your topic.

Public vs. Self-Hosted

  • Public server (ntfy.sh) is the quickest way to start — but topics are public, so anyone who knows the topic name can subscribe.
  • Self-hosted Ntfy lets you require an auth token and keep notifications private, which is better for sensitive updates.

Choosing a Topic Name

Pick a unique, hard-to-guess topic name on the public server so strangers cannot accidentally subscribe. Treat the topic name like a shared secret.
