Direct: your forum in real time, replies appear while members read [Paid] 1.1.0

SenseiXS submitted a new resource:

Direct: your forum in real time, replies appear while members read - Live replies, presence, typing, fresh lists and alerts over Pusher or Soketi, or by polling.

Your forum in real time: replies appear while members read.

A forum page is a snapshot. Someone answers while you read and you only find out when you press refresh, sometimes after posting the same answer yourself. Alerts wait for the next click, the staff bar is already out of date, and the conversation feels slower than the chat apps on your members' phones. Direct puts your forum in real time, on the pages your members already use.

Direct puts a XenForo forum in real time. A reply appears under the one a member is reading, or waits behind a "1 new reply" button if they have scrolled up. Here right now and a typing line sit above the thread, and forum lists, What's new, widgets, alert counters and the staff bar keep themselves fresh.

It runs over Pusher or Soketi, with a polling fallback, a daily budget cap and a circuit breaker so a relay problem never leaves pages frozen. Setup is one Admin CP page with a Send a test event button that shows the relay's answer.

This is the first public release. Our own forum has run Direct since October, but it has no customers yet, so there is no review to show you. Questions are welcome here.
