Realtime for Flarum

Your forum, live — in one paste.

Hosted realtime for your Flarum forum: live discussions, typing indicators and presence. We run the websocket server; you paste one key. Unlimited messages, no Pusher account, nothing to maintain.

Realtime, without the server.

The live experience your community expects — live posts, typing, presence — with none of the websocket infrastructure to run.

One-key setup

Install the Warble extension, paste one key. The whole connection is configured for you — no hosts, ports, or keys. Built for zero server experience.

Live everything

New discussions and replies appear instantly, plus typing indicators and presence — powered by flarum/realtime, pointed at our server.

Unlimited messages

No per-day caps, no metering. Your plan is a simple connection limit; broadcasts within it are unlimited — unlike Pusher.

Your own dedicated server

Each forum gets its own isolated realtime container on its own subdomain. We patch and update it; you do nothing.

Live in a minute.

No websocket daemon, no Pusher cluster, no config files — install, paste, done.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Warble realtime for Flarum.

What is Warble?
Warble is hosted realtime for Flarum — live discussions, typing indicators and presence, over WebSockets. We run the realtime server; you connect your forum with one key. No websocket server to run, no Pusher account, no message caps.
Do I need the Realtime extension?
Yes — Warble works alongside flarum/realtime, which does the live UI. Install both, and the free Warble extension points Realtime at our hosted service for you — no hosts, ports, or keys to configure. Realtime’s own feature settings (typing indicators, list updates, notification toasts) stay yours to tune.
How do I set it up?
Install the Warble extension, then paste one key from your dashboard into a single field. Warble configures everything automatically. That’s the whole setup — built for people with no server experience.
Are messages really unlimited?
Yes. Unlike Pusher, we don’t meter or cap messages. Your tier is a simple concurrent-connection limit; broadcasts within it are unlimited.
What if I outgrow it?
Above 2,000 concurrent connections you’re a large community — at that point self-hosting makes sense. No lock-in: flarum/realtime ships its own websocket daemon, so you simply disconnect Warble and run Realtime in its stock form on your own server.
Is there a free trial?
Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. Cancel any time from your dashboard — your realtime endpoint simply stops.
