Xenforo Social Proof 11.8.7

[Add-on] Social Proof Popups for XenForo 2.3+

Live user activity • Real download notifications • FOMO-enhancing engagement widget

Bring real-time “social proof” to your forum with a modern popup system that shows live activity happening on your site. Boost engagement, increase downloads, and make your community feel active — automatically.

✨ Features
Displays small, non-intrusive notifications in the bottom-left corner of your forum:
“Mitch just downloaded “EVP Analyzer Pack”.
“14 users are currently browsing this site.”
“Someone just downloaded a resource.”
Popups appear smoothly, auto-hide, and rotate based on new activity.


🔹 XenForo Resource Manager Integration (XFRM)
Social proof messages automatically trigger when a user:
✔ Downloads a resource
✔ Downloads multiple versions
✔ Interacts with RM content (more hooks coming)

Each event is logged with:
Username (or anonymous if preferred)
Resource title
Timestamp


🔹 Modern UI / FOMO Style Popup
Clean, polished popup with:
Animated “Live activity” pill
Soft shadow, rounded corners
Subtle slide/fade animation
Auto-hide with timing control
Manual close option
Works on all devices (mobile-friendly)

🔹 Live User Activity Tracking
Uses XenForo’s session activity to show:
✔ Total online users
✔ Guests + Members

Example messages:
“44 users are browsing this site right now.”
“1 user is currently active.”
