## Description

Every number this extension shows is a real open browser tab, counted by Hibira’s
realtime service.

 * Product viewers: a badge under the price shows how many shoppers have the product
   open, above a threshold you choose.
 * Store-wide count: `[hibira_viewers scope="store"]` shows how many shoppers are
   on the shop right now.
 * Purchase popups: open pages show “Someone just bought” with the product when 
   an order is paid. Later visitors see one recent order. No customer names or places
   are sent.
 * Live stock: “Only 2 left in stock” and “Out of stock” update on open product 
   pages, and the add to cart button is disabled when a product sells out.

Works with classic and block themes, HPOS and the cart and checkout blocks.

### External services

This extension connects to Hibira (https://hibira.io), a realtime WebSocket service,
to count open product pages and deliver purchase and stock updates.

 * Shoppers’ browsers connect to your Hibira app’s WebSocket host on WooCommerce
   pages. Hibira receives the channel names (a hash of the store URL plus product
   IDs) and the visitor’s IP address as part of the connection.
 * Your server sends paid orders (product ID, name, link, image and time) and stock
   status to Hibira’s HTTP API. No customer data is sent.

## FAQ

### Are the numbers real?

Yes. The badge is the number of open tabs subscribed to the product’s channel, reported
by Hibira. It never adds or rounds up.

### Does it slow down checkout?

No. Events are sent after WordPress has finished the response.
