AUTOmatic Refresh

[sparkz]

My users oftenly complain about the need to manually have to refresh to check out the new posts but i can have an Option for automatic Refresh from Admin Cpanel to control the default time setting for the pages to refresh !

I will be really thankful is Mod can be made available for that !
Thanking in advance

Why don't you try Simple What's new... maybe it will help solve your problem

a software for Microsoft Windows that will announce you when you receive a pm(private message) or on a new post on a simple machines forum

You can just do a META refresh on the page every x amount of time.

or you could use a good browser where you can set it to refresh the page automatically
you wouldn't need to touch anything in your code... and not touching a working code is always the safest thing to do
imo

That could be very annoying, if you are writing a long reply and the browser refreshes the things you have already written are lost?!!

Basically yea.  I don't really see a point in the whole refresh thing besides wasting bandwidth.

Well i tried the meta refresh thingy and it worked really well as smf takes care when the meta refresh occurs while posting the text is not lost even after refreshing !
Loved it.
Thanks
