Will phpBB ever use real time updates?

It’s boring that this hasn’t been implemented by now.

99% of my internet usage is via my mobile.

The world of websites and forums is slow on the up take of this.
If this is implemented in a newer version I’d like a link!

You could always make an extension request or post in Ideas.

I'm sure that this has been discussed/suggested/requested before and that the main problem with making these items as real-time updates is that it could put a sizeable load on the server - especially on a large board.

Also updating some of those pages could be annoying when you are trying to read a topic/forum.

Sounds like phpBB in Realtime.

There is live topic update: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/exte ... ic_update/

It's limited though since the viewtopic.php isn't a proper controller. It does however allow you to see if there are any new posts on a page you're currently viewing.
My extensions:
Simple CMS, Feed post bot, Avatar Resize, Modbreak, Magic OGP, Live topic update, Modern Quote, Quoted Where (GDPR) and Autoresponder.
Newest: FAQ manager for 3.2

Like my work? Buy me a coffee to keep it coming. :ugeek:
