iFlynax Connect

iFlynax connect plugin integrates your app into your classifieds website. If you purchased the iOS app for your classifieds website, you need to install the plugin so that your site and the app may share the data.

How it works

The plugin connects your classifieds website to the iOS app and ensures smooth data exchange by synchronizing the data in the app with that on your classifieds website.

After initial installation, the plugin sends a request to the server, and upon receiving a response, the app gets the ability to exchange the data with the server. On an initial run, the app collects all basic settings, such as phrases, listing types, categories, fields, created forms, packages and user plans. This is the data that provides a foundation for the app.

Once the app gets all the basic settings from the website, the plugin will continue tracking all user activity, such as new user signup, adding/editing a listing, sending a message or any other activity that invokes a server request. Any changes on the website will automatically trigger the plugin to sync them with the iOS app, thus, giving the user the latest content.

Back end

After installation, the plugin adds a manager to the admin panel; It is comprised of several sections:

Language settings

The first section deals with language settings and allows you to manage the existing languages in the app. If your website supports several languages, you may import the language packages into the app. It is also possible to install different languages for the website and the app, if you wish. You do not have to import all the available language packages in the app and limit it to one default language.

Basic settings

In this section, you may select the main listing type for the app, for instance, auto, specify the number of ads on the page, configure the display of ads on the map and manage the API keys.

In-App Purchases

There is an essential setting in Basic settings of the manager, which allows you to configure the in-app purchases. By enabling it, your users will be able to buy services/subscriptions on your website right from their phones. The manager in the admin panel contains the necessary instructions on how to enable the in-app purchases for the app and also offers a sandbox mode, which allows you to test the in-app purchases in your app to make sure that everything works smoothly.

Email templates

This section allows you to create and manage the email templates for sending notifications to users during successful signup or other activities. The email templates may also be configured to send emails to the site administrator upon user registration, ad posted or any other activity that you wish to be notified about.

Managing listing types

This section provides an overview of all the listing types in your app. The settings allow you to select an icon to give a visual representation of the listing type in the app.

Your website may have a multitude of various categories and it is not always a good idea to enable all of them for the app. If you want to limit your app to only certain categories, you may do so by disabling and hiding the selected categories, thus making the app lighter and easier to navigate for a user.

Google ads (AdMob)

iFlynax supports placing ads in your app via Google’s AdMob platform. If you decide to use some of your app space for placing Google ads, you will need to create an account with AdMob (if you don’t have one already), and then, create the ads and place them in your app with the help of a unique id.

The manager in Flynax admin panel allows you to create and post an ad from Google in a few simple steps. First, you will need to come up with the name for the ad, then, enter an ad ID in the appropriate field, choose the position for the ad (top or bottom screen), and finally decide on which pages of your app the ad will be displayed.

The AdMob section in the plugin manager gives you a full overview of all the ads in your app. You may click on any of it to view its details, edit or disable it.
