Miscellaneous Hacks - [DBTech] Forum Live Feed & User Wall v1 (vB4) [AJAX]

Forum Live Feed & User Wall lets you see a continuously updated feed of activities on the forum, with a powerful set of customisation options for sources of information.

Uses
If you've wished for a Facebook-like feed for your forum, this mod is for you.

This mod adds 2 distinct features to your site. First a live feed showing actions performed by everyone on the forum, from new threads and posts to things like new avatars or signatures, your members can customise their feed and keep up to date with everything that's going on, right as it happens.
Secondly every user also has their own wall that displays what they have been up to. This lets users see what their friends have been doing and join in!
With advanced privacy configuration options and configurable preview options for each content type, this mod compliments other modifications like InfoPanels and produces a more detailed and verbose feed of the happenings on the forum.

Ah yes, it doesn't respect that particular setup, because it's virtually impossible to do so.

Forum exclusion is a Pro-only feature so there is no way to resolve this in the Lite version unfortunately

So then the Pro version would eliminate this issue entirely?

[vivoperdio]

Any live demo site?

[Alan_SP]

You can check all DBTech's mod on their site.

They also have demo site where you can check ACP and test mods as an admin. But, I think that demo site is momentarily down.

You'd be able to exclude that specific forum from Live Wall, yeah

When will be the next release?

[DragonByte Tech]

We don't currently have an update for this mod planned, but we never make ironclad plans more than a month or so ahead in time

The reason I was asking was because you guys fixed the forum block on the right side when there are long links posted so it doesn't go outside of the box.

[DragonByte Tech]

Forum Live Feed & User Wall v1.2.3
