You mean the board refreshes when we go to the main menu?

I thought it did. Maybe I need to look more closely.

I mean, lets say your looking at a board, but you let it sit there for a minute. The page would reload automatically.

Is there a way...

.. to have it refresh when someone posts a new message? (check your bug board, BTW, LaWizard)

.. you could have it that the page automaticly refreshes every three minutes or so, but have the option for the user to disable that function. Also just have a refresh button at the top of the board (next to "search" and all that.

Just a thought.

Good ideas

I totally forgot about a refresh link that I could add now.

As far as the refresh goes, I could not have it refresh when someone posts. But I could do a time limit, and have that as an option to the user on the Control Panel (Admin Tool/Prefs).

I have added a refresh button to the board listing page, and the topics page. I don't think we need one on the message page. But if you guys think differently about it let me know.

I am now going to go set up a suggestions board for you guys.

Refresh

I think a refresh tag would be best. I do not want the message board to refresh while I am in the middle of reading posts.

Slow readers such as myself or thread that are quite long could resfresh several times before someone was done. That would become very bothersome.

We are going to...

We are going to wait on it.
For now I have implemented a refresh button on the pages that need it. The Board Listing page, and the Topics page. I did not put it on any other pages like the message page. I don't feel that the message page needs it.

We are going to wait until the admin tool is up and running. Once that is done we will add an option to that page for an auto refresh, and give you several times to pick from.
