Title: Realtime viewer of the orders
Post by: Kuubs on April 03, 2018, 12:16:07 PM
Hello,

Is there some sort of plugin available where I can view the orders that are being made in my webshop in real time?

Some sort of dashboard where the orders gets automatically added if they have been made.

Nothing more than som more elaborate back ends but AFAIK they all need You to press F5 to update the screen. As You do with the normal back end.

Yeah, I understand that, but I guess I have to build something myself to make a dashboard where the orders get automatically refreshed.

I'd personally love an Android/iOS app that would let me see orders in realtime (with notification on/off) and that would let me see the actual order details to pick items.

Someting to consider.. I have made a realtime order viewer dashboard. It works very well. Maybe I can see if I can export it to an app or something similair.

If you have email notification on your mobile(or desktop), why you need refresh in a dashboard ?

He is lying at a beach with his phone close by, so he wants to know immediately when there will be funds available to extend the stay.

Mobile App is the future, well, for the next few years, until you can send order updates straight to your brain interface.

Hope that answers your question.

If he really need, it's not so complicate to do. My module already load by ajax the list/search changes(if enabled), see https://shop.st42.fr/en/themes/menu-administrator-virtuemart.htm
Adding a javascript timer to refresh the order list all 1 or 2 minutes should do the trick(similar to keepalive).
