Live Viewers Manual.

How to show honest live-viewer and sales figures on the product detail page and make social proof visible.

Installation

Up and running in minutes.

Installation and activation happen entirely in the Shopware backend - no code changes required.

1 · Requirements

Requires Shopware 6.7 / PHP 8.2+. As always, create a database backup before larger changes.

2 · From the Store

In the backend, go to Extensions › Store, search for the plugin and install it. Updates then appear automatically in the backend.

3 · Activate

Activate the plugin under Extensions › My extensions, then run bin/console cache:clear or clear the cache from the backend.

4 · Open

The module sits under Extensions › Stone & Water › Live Viewers & Sales Counter.

Configuration

Control the figures.

Thresholds, timeframe and manual values are set in the admin - overridable per product.

Thresholds

Thresholds & timeframe

Define from which values and over which timeframe viewer and sales figures are shown.

Manually editable

Overridable per product

Individual products can carry their own values - separately configurable.

Presentation

Adapts to the theme

The display picks up your theme's look and stays performant.

Usage

Social proof on the PDP.

People take cues from what others do - the live viewer makes exactly that visible.

Who is watching

Shows current viewers of a product - the product feels real, not a shelf-warmer.

Already sold

Sales figures signal demand and reduce purchase doubt.

No performance drag

Implemented lightly, without slowing the storefront.

FAQ
