🔔 Baichdo Notify

A lightweight WordPress admin plugin that adds a "Send Notification" menu to push a message to every registered app device — reading RTCL's existing Expo push-token table.

📖 Overview

Baichdo Notify adds a simple "Send Notification" page to the WordPress admin. From it you can broadcast an Expo push notification to every device registered in your app — the plugin reads the existing rtcl_push_notifications token table (populated by the RTCL-based mobile app) and sends messages in batches through the Expo Push API.

💡 Purpose-built companion for the Baichdo mobile app — no separate dashboard or service required.
