I dropped the setting to 60 that says when a topic is live or not.

My server load rocketed to over 50.

Disable live topic, and the load instantly reverted to normal. Sorry mate - but when I've got 500+ people on a live thread - it won't work...

Still the best concept out there tho...

PS - you're warning about sites with high traffic NEEDS to be included in the first post.

Definitely the most popular plugin I've ever installed, within minutes people were really loving the way it all worked. I saw some worrying spikes in my server load though, so just as a precaution I have disabled it for now. Please keep working on it though, if you can make this work on a big forum, I'd pay to be able to install it, it has the potential to be really something special.

K111 how many people did you have logged onto your site when testing?

I average 150 at anytime, would this mod run okay on my site?

I do not recommend this mod for sites that get high traffic and run on shared hosting, as they limit the simultaneous connections. If you have a shared forum that has a small user base then it should be fine. And if you have hosting that doesn't limit connections you should be fine.

Wow - with a forum that's currently just growing (just a little over 500 members) and at the time the host had its fit about the spiking usage, there were only 30ish members online. I'd absolutely hate to see what size (must be tiny) forum this can run on without the issues of usage spiking. And, just to note...I had already accessed the ACP and played with the settings - extending the time for queries - obviously that didn't do much.

I do agree that this is a great concept, think it needs some tweaking.

maybe a silly question, but does it work in IE6 also ?
I know IE6 isn't in the list, but just wanted to check if it's either IE6 or my browser settings that prevent it from working for me.
It's working fine in firefox ... this is a great mod!

I just installed this after I upgraded to 3.8

When inside the thread everything works fine.

However, in forumdisplay, the "LiveTopic" image isn't showing up next to live threads.

Anyone have any ideas?

I run a forum which averages about 250 currently active users online. I saw no difference in our server loads when I installed this. I really think it depends on the site and the servers (I have both a web server and a database server for the site).
