Instant Forum Notification

[Ziki]

Please I would like you to install this hack https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98822

allowing us to get notification instantly!

I'm sure we can add this to the list of things to consider, however, that is not a promise it will ever happen.

A couple of quick points spring to mind ;

We would need to consider the extra strain this would put on the e-mail servers.

It was written for vB 3.5.0, and some posts seem to indicate it doesn't work on vB 3.6.x.

I'm sure you can port it

I would like this too ... also so I can see how I could implement it for my own site which is running on vBulletin 4.

This is unlikely to happen, also note that this is a 4 year old thread.

(And this is not the place to request modifications for your own forum)

Fail. After 4 years, unlikely this will work.

Well seeing that someone once made a "mod" for this ... it surely can be implemented into the base program. More likely the vBulletin development team is "unwilling" ... not "incapable". Otherwise we'd see it.

it is not capability... it is related to hosting... instant notification is very extensive on any server... you can still hire a coder to put it on your site... it's a 3 lines edit...

[vilhiem]

any idea what those "three lines" are so I can add them ...? :-)

am I missing something, don't we have instant email notification in the default install of vbulletin?
I get an email from my forum the second or shortly after someone has replied to a thread I'm subscribed to.
