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.

I see difference only on first page load, not repeated.

Anyway, yes, optimizations if possible are always welcome.

That's sadly not feasible for technical reasons
It would create a lot of server load to check the date stamp instead of just fetching the x latest entries.

Basically what I am saying by that is that there is at least 4 seconds page render time difference.
It's pretty bad, really bad for me.

This is an excellent plugin, hopefully there will be some improvements done.

Here is what I put in the settings:


Entries Per Page 10 (def 20)
Refresh Rate 60 (def 30)

Time Between Status Updates 15 (def 5)
Since this was cross-posted here and on our forum, I'll share the results here:

Depending on the size of your forum database, having the sidebar enabled can add load time such as the numbers reported here.

Disabling the forum sidebar block for LW returned the load times to normal, so it is 100% safe to leave the mod enabled even if you don't want to take the performance hit the sidebar presents
