Always wanted to be an owner of a dating website? Your dream comes true with this really awesome Real-time Dating Website Theme! With many features you will find in this theme, our greatest feature is without doubt real-time communication between members using PHP WebSockets. This means no more complete page refreshing, no more bloated server requests from AJAX and no more long waiting times. The real-time communication techniques we are using are so incredibly fast you won’t even notice any delay between sending or receiving messages, notifications and other updates from members.
