@ColorfulTones Agreed that it’s the right move, sad at all developer hours that have gone into it.

A tough call, but a necessary one. Real-time collaboration features will not ship in the upcoming WordPress 7.0 release (estimated launch May 20).

𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 just got approved on WordPress.org.
You might know us as 𝗪𝗣𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹, but WordPress.org has a rule against plugins starting with "wp", which is understandable. So WordSocket was born, and honestly it has a nice ring to it.
After months of building, testing, and a few too many late nights, true realtime for WordPress is now one plugin install away.
𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 brings WebSocket support 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀. No separate server, no complex infrastructure. Site owners can push live updates, events, and notifications to connected users the moment they happen, not after the next poll cycle. 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗬𝗷𝘀 𝘀𝘆𝗻𝗰 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿, 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘃𝟳 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝘅.
If you've ever wanted realtime on WordPress without rebuilding your stack, this is it.
Install it today: wordpress.org/plugins/wordso…
