[Suggestion] Dynamic Notification Counter / Dynamic Thread List

  • The notification counter will not update/go up in numbers unless you refresh the page that you are currently on. I am suggestion changing this behavior to match Flarums' dynamically updating notification counter. I am also suggesting the same thing with threads: Right now, we need to refresh the page to see new threads, I suggest matching the behavior of Flarum once more, by automatically showing new threads on the feed.

    I have found a plugin for the dynamic threads: [link] but not for the notifications.

    A fool's fool fools fools who foolishly accept the foolishness of a fool's fool.

    So it does I believe but it only does it on a periodic frequency, it was one of the new features in this version of Woltlab. They show up for me on Firefox on my laptop without issue and without refreshing. I'll check that is the case but I think this should be native functionality but just not real time.

  • it only does it on a periodic frequency

    What would that period be? I haven't been notified of this post which was ~5 minutes ago at the time of writing this before I refreshed the page

    I want to say 15 mins but without going and checking I'm honestly not sure.

    I've checked, Dynamic notifications are enabled

    Periodically retrieves new notifications in the background, requests are dispatched every 5 minutes. Interval increases to up to 15 minutes on inactivity.

    I'm going to deny this given it should already be a feature. If it doesn't work then please do raise a bug report.
