XF 2.0 Possible to have alerts clear out if you view the thread? Possible to have alerts update without refreshing the page?

[Alternadiv]

These are two things that I've seen other forums do but I'm not sure how it's done. If it is an add-on, I don't think I saw one for XF 2. Is this possible anymore?

I don't think it updates alerts without refreshing, does it?

This is how I feel.

No, it doesn't. I was referring to the first question (I missed the 2nd one). Btw. there is also this addon which does the job for auto-clear:

For alerts without refreshing, there is this paid one for XF2:

For XF1

@Xon is the query that stock Xenforo doesnt perform that enables this "issue" so "expensive" that it is worth not doing ? for Big Boards ?

Nope, it is a very simple query by design.
