From the “Send Notification” menu in the admin panel, you can broadcast messages directly to one or multiple users through the plugin’s built-in inbox system. These messages are shown in the user dashboard upon login.

This feature is ideal for:

  • Manual rewards

  • User warnings
  • Engagement reminders

Technical Notes

All configurations are securely stored using WordPress’s native settings API. Changes are applied immediately without needing to reload or reset the plugin.

For most use cases, the default settings work well out of the box. You can fine-tune them later as your needs evolve.
