FB messenger ShoutCast

ShoutCast plugin is available right from the main menu, default in off state.

1. Activate module. All settings are saved on fly by ajax, so there is no need to save anything manually.

2. Shoutcast optin page url - for multiple languages. Page should contain FB messenger optin button with broadcast category id (see 6.) so users can optin for shoutcast.

- Broadcast category is standard post category, which is not used with any posts. Exists purely only for purpose of optin for subscribers.

3., 4. When the module is active, infobar will be shown on top of all frontend pages with given text and link to optin page url (see 2.)

5. Custom message that will be posted as first message for subscribed user.

6. Broadcast category in which shoutcast will be published. This category must be referred in FB messenger optin shortcode on page (see 2.):

[fb-msg-optin msg=„Optin Here!“ cat=„6970“] → category id

[fb-msg-optin msg=„Optin Here!“ cat=„shoutcast“] → category slug

Both shortcode statements are valid and have the same functionality.

7. Textarea for message.

8. Optional image link, in format http://xxx/yyy.jpg. Image will be enclosed with message in one post.

9. Button sends message with image link to subscribers.

Last 20 sent messages are logged into Shoutcast entries table.

Standard FB messenger optin buttons for standard posts which are not assigned to broadcast category (no-one should be) are stil preserving its standard optin funkcionality - recieving updates during new posts in subscribed categories.

Only subscribers of shoutcast broadcast category are exception to this.
