wpDiscuz - Online Users

The plugin displays online and offline badges beside comment authors’ names, giving visitors a quick view of who is active in a conversation. Status updates appear without requiring a page reload, so the comment section can reflect changes while visitors are browsing. Site owners can also manage which users are eligible to have an online status.

When a user logs in, a pop-up can show their avatar, name, and a preview of their latest comment, with a link to that comment. Front-end styling options in wpDiscuz settings let site owners adjust the appearance of badges and notifications. The plugin is designed for sites that use wpDiscuz and want visible presence cues in their comment discussions.
