Panth Live Activity — Social Proof & FOMO Notifications for Magento 2 | Panth Infotech
Boost conversions with real-time social proof notifications — display recent purchases, cart additions, and wishlist activity to create urgency and FOMO. Configurable fake names, locations, featured products, animation styles, and mobile-responsive design.
Panth Live Activity is a powerful social proof and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) notification extension for Magento 2 that displays real-time customer activity on your storefront — recent purchases, cart additions, and wishlist saves. These subtle, non-intrusive popups build trust, create urgency, and are proven to lift conversion rates by showing shoppers that other people are actively buying from your store.
Configure everything to match your brand: display real activity from your database or use curated fake names and locations when traffic is low, highlight featured products, choose from multiple animation styles (slide-in, fade, bounce, zoom), tune the display frequency, and enjoy a fully mobile-responsive design that looks great on every device. Compatible with both Hyva and Luma themes.

Why Social Proof Works
Shoppers are significantly more likely to complete a purchase when they see that others are actively buying from the same store. Live activity notifications tap into three powerful psychological triggers:
- Social Proof — "If others are buying, it must be good."
- FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) — "This product is popular — I should grab it before it's gone."
- Urgency — Real-time activity creates a sense that the store is alive and busy.
Panth Live Activity is designed to leverage all three without being intrusive or spammy.

Mobile Responsiveness

- Safe-area aware — respects iOS notch and Android gesture areas
- Reduced frequency on mobile by default to avoid interrupting shoppers
- Respects
prefers-reduced-motion— disables animations for accessibility
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| Notifications not appearing | Module disabled or cache | Enable in admin, then run bin/magento cache:flush |
| No real activity showing | Low traffic or no recent orders | Enable Use Fake Names as fallback |
| Notifications on wrong pages | Page scope too restrictive | Review Page Scope setting |
| Animation choppy on mobile | Heavy theme or 3rd-party JS conflict | Try a different animation style or disable on mobile |
| Hyva storefront not showing popups | Static content not deployed | Run bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f |
FAQ
Will this slow down my storefront?
No. The notification feed is cached, assets are lightweight, and the JS runs asynchronously after page load.
Is it GDPR compliant?
Only first names (or curated fake names) and city-level locations are shown — no personally identifiable information is exposed. Always review your local regulations.
Can I use only real data, no fakes?
Yes. Disable Use Fake Names in configuration and the module will only show genuine activity.
Does it work with Hyva?
Yes. Panth Live Activity is natively compatible with Hyva themes using Alpine.js — no jQuery required.
Can I show notifications only on product pages?
Yes. Use the Page Scope setting to restrict display to specific page types.
Does it support multi-store / multi-language?
Yes. All settings respect Magento's standard scope hierarchy (default → website → store view) and all strings are translatable via Magento's __() function.
Can I customize the notification template?
Yes. Override the phtml template in your custom theme under Panth_LiveActivity/templates/notification.phtml.
Is Panth_Core required?
Yes. mage2kishan/module-core is a required dependency and is pulled in automatically by Composer.
