[TH] Live Threads [Deleted]

[Jon W]

Jon W submitted a new resource:

Live Threads by Waindigo - Create "live" threads that automatically update with new posts without having to refresh.

This add-on adds the ability to mark threads as "live". Live threads are automatically updated with new posts without having to refresh the page, based on the options set in the Admin Control Panel.

Hello!

First of all, thank you very much for this addon. I needed something for my forum, since the other addons have some bugs.

Now, I tested this addon and I do not know if it's a bug, but the posts are duplicated instantly to post.

That never happened in my testing. Does that happen every time for you?

This happens when we are 2 or more users posting.

Managed to replicate it. Hopefully fixed this now.

 

[Velli]

Continues to happen double posting. Sometimes even triple.
Example.

Hello,

what are the differenc betwen this add-on and the similar, older from *******?
https://*******.com/resources/thread-live-update.76/

As I can see - both will do the same thing...

That one puts posts at the bottom of the thread. With live threads, you need new posts to be at the top, not the bottom. Hopefully this one does that.

This addon has bugs. The old posts appear as new.
Also, ******* addons were removed and are no longer available.

The main idea is the same, but it is probably implemented in a completely different way and I see there are completely different options.

That one puts posts at the bottom of the thread. With live threads, you need new posts to be at the top, not the bottom. Hopefully this one does that.

I have a separate add-on that switches the order of the posts, so you can choose whether or not to have that. This add-on is compatible with that add-on.

This addon has bugs. The old posts appear as new.

The bug is related to this bug in XenForo that I have just reported:

No - you can legaly use ******* Add-ons, as you can read here on xenforo.com and see at *******.com . ******* only can not anymore sell from here directly.

I've been having this issue where I (a super admin) have not been able to get my posts to update live when I post under my super admin account. Now, as the super admin, I can see other users posts updating, but they will not see my posts.

Any thoughts? I seem to have the permissions set properly, but I cannot view my posts with a regular user test account.
