With the upgrade there was supposed to be a new feature where we could see all 377000 Omnimaga posts in a single page, their text/bbcode updated and parsed/displayed in real time (as people edits/removes/posts them.
Any idea when it will be available and if it will be compatible with Opera 12.16 and Internet Explorer 11?
-
Yes, and it will only be compatible with IE5 sorry.
Joking aside, a realtime feed where you can see what is happening is a cool idea. I might design something with together.js and polling the database for recent activity to allow something similar-ish.
-
Isn't this something Omni used to have?
At least I wondered where it went when I checked back after a long time of not coming on here.
-
I sure hope not. The resources required for that would be massive. Post data is 300MB+ before parsing as is.

Actually those little bubbles that appeared on the page side right after the upgrade were a nice touch, especially for those who had Omnom disabled. However I don't know if their issues were fixable. >.<

I doubt it, unless someone donated $2 millions a month to Eeems to cover bandwidth costs.

Plus you'd have to have a computer that could handle it. And server load would be high.
I'm going to re-work the notifications eventually.

I meant a realtime feed on the home page, not a constant update on 377000 posts :P
-
Btw this suggestion was april fools material too. In no way this is even close to realistic. :P
A much lower scale real-time feed would be fun, though.
-
Yeah, I like the idea. Something AJAXey or somthing.

There was no real time feed (Unless you count The posts bot on OmnomIRC, which we still have). There was a little recent posts widget though.
-
Righty, that widget, it must come back, according to me at least.
-
Yeah, the issue is that it caused page views to skyrocket, so for example one day there were 250000 views, when in fact it was 25000-50000 or so. I think that widget is also why people had troubles logging in too (too many login attempts due to the widget reloading pages multiple times).

The widget didn't reload automatically.
