    Ajax based new posts

    Hi friends,


    I was looking for a plugin for MyBB 1.4.x.
    I need the new posts & new thread updated automatically using ajax like the Ispy feature on vBulletin software.

    Can anybody help me in finding it for me ? or Help me in coding it ? as I am not good in JS as PHP

    Thanks in Advance.

    Like, do you want your index.php to refresh automatically when someone else posts?
    Or in the thread it auto refreshes when someone else posts in that certain thread?

    I could see problems interfering with Auto Reply that myBB has built in.

    I want a page in which all new posts and threads submitted should be shown without refreshing the whole page thats all.
    Refreshing the whole page will take lot of bandwidth and its not good to keep on refreshing the page every 5 or 6 sec once.

    How often do posts accumulate on your forums (like how often do you have someone who post 1 post?)

    It depends because some off time it will be like 3 or 4 sec one posts when all members are online and some time at night no post at all.

    Discussion on the MyBB forums. Seems the people liked the idea but nobody really worked on it.

    Nothing is always absolutely so.

    I'm not sure if this is what you want, but:

    http://mods.mybboard.net/view/xspy-plugin

    By live activity feed, do you mean something like this:
    http://osu.ppy.sh/p/events

    If that is the case, then it could be somewhat easy to create a PHP script to grab the Post data from the database, the only tricky part is having the AJAX thing display.

    Gimmie a few extra weeks months and I'll have AJAX conqured and i can try to make this plugin. (actually doesn't seem that hard)

    Re: Ajax based new posts

    Ya its not that hard but not getting the exact connections to start with.
    I took the xspy plugin and modified a few things as I want but the main problem i am having with that plugin is it is missing posts inbetween,
    Ex If I keep on posting 10 posts from 1 to 10 it will miss 3 -4 posts thats the problem, any solution for it ?
    Edit:
    @king 24
    What point do you not agree with ?

    I might be able to write something for you. Just need something clarified.

    You don't want the view topic page updated? You just want one page that lists all the new topics and replies as they come in?
